We have seen some brothers bloggers in this blessed scientific site have written some articles on the scientific miracle or scientific interpretation of the Holy Quran, some of them were logical and moderate and some of them was far from the scientific truth and legitimacy in this matter. It was incumbent upon researchers and practitioners of Quranic sciences and Koranic studies to present the face of truth in this matter according to their human jurisprudence, coupled with the scientific and legitimate evidence in what they decide and go to in this matter. This important scientific issue has preoccupied many scholars and researchers in Qur'anic and interpretive studies, both ancient and modern.


I have also been preoccupied and I saw the complexity and confusion in the words of some scientists and researchers, so we bring this issue to the awareness and awareness of the brothers readers must pass some features, even briefly, I say God and success and guidance. Through my reading and follow-up to the movement of this scientific idea old and recent, I have seen that the statements of scholars have been confused and confused, and that it was often issued by some scholars, one rule on everyone with different views and different positions in this case, so the decision is not finally decisive. This prompted me to summarize the opinions and attitudes of scientists on this important issue. By addressing and clarifying a number of key issues in this matter in short.

First: What is the concept of scientific interpretation and what is meant by it?
Sheikh Abdul Azim Al-Zarqani went on to say that scientific interpretation is meant to be the universal sciences, knowledge, and works, and what is found in the world of art and knowledge, such as geometry, arithmetic, economics, sociology, nature, chemistry, animals, plants and geology. This issue, when we talk about the scientific interpretation of the Holy Quran, we must keep in mind these scientific issues mentioned. The interpreter who follows this approach in his interpretation is to link the meanings of some of the Quranic verses in the light of what has reached and ended the science of certain scientific facts, not assumptions and theories, in order to highlight the greatness of the Creator in this universe and the statement of the miracle of the Holy Quran as an expert wise.

"
There is no contradiction between the Qur'an and the established scientific facts based on certainty. Indeed, the Holy Qur'an supports and affirms it
"

It is not intended or intended interpretation of scientific arbitration of scientific or philosophical terminology in the Koranic verses also went to some scientists in the modern era, such as, Professor Amin Kholi and Sheikh Dr. Mohammed Hussein Golden when they said: "It is the interpretation that governs the scientific terminology in the words of the Koran and strive to extract Various sciences and philosophical views of them !! " The interpreter does not judge and does not carry the terms of the Quran modern scientific terminology, but uses it to shed more light on the meanings of the Koran infinity derived from the Koranic verses. This is the purpose and meaning of scientific interpretation.

Second: Definition of scientific interpretation
If we know the meaning of scientific interpretation, then we can formulate another definition in line with its purpose, other than those mentioned by these researchers. Perhaps the definition of Professor: Ahmed Omar Abu Hajar closer to the intended purpose, which we tend to, when he said: "is the interpretation in which the interpreter tries to understand the words of the Koran in the light of what has been proven by science, and disclose the secret of the secrets of his miracles, The precise scientific information that people did not know at the time of the descent of the Koran, this indicates that it is not the words of humans, but from God Creator of power and fate.

Third: Is there a contradiction between the Koranic verses and the fixed scientific facts?
Very briefly, we say that there is no contradiction between the Qur'an and the established scientific facts based on certainty. Indeed, the Holy Qur'an supports and affirms it. As Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyyah said: "There can be no contradiction between the truth of the transferee and the truth." I think that this is clear and does not require a statement. If the contradiction or contradictions are reported, then the answer, as some scholars have said, is either to be frank, untrue, or untrue.


I do not agree with Professor Ahmed Omar Abu Hajar on what he said from the statement of Sheikh Imam Muhammad Abdo and some other scholars regarding the conflict of mind with the transfer, without any comment or criticism, when he quoted the words of Imam Muhammad Abdo: "There is an agreement between the people of Islam Except for a few who are not seen, that if the mind and transportation conflict, take the evidence indicated by the mind and remained in the transport routes: First: the way to recognize the health of the transfer with the recognition of the inability to understand and authorize the order to God, and the second: Is consistent with what has been proven by reason. "

And we follow the words of Imam Muhammad Abdo, and say: that we were imposed if we first that the text transferred according to the laws of the Arabic language did not agree with what proved by reason, then what is the solution? To wrap the neck of the text and carry it over what is possible, so that it can be reconciled with what the mind has proven ?! This does not mean that he has the least knowledge of the sciences of Arabic language and jurisprudence. In this case, we agree with Imam Muhammad Abdo when he said: We recognize the health of the movable and recognize the inability to understand and impose a reality meaning to God, and do not offer the mind on the right transfer, and God knows best. In the second part of our writing we will address the classification of the positions of scientists ancient and modern scientific interpretation of the Koran.
