The Creation Of Man: Creation Or Evolution? Answered By Science And Holy
Scriptures - a lecture by Dr. Maurice Bucaille
Dr. Maurice Bucaille is an eminent French surgeon, scientist, scholar and author
of ''THE BIBLE, THE QURAN AND SCIENCE'' which contains the result of his
research into the Judeo-Christian Revelation and the Quran. It is a unique
contribution in the field of religion and science.
Being an outstanding Scientist, he was elected to treat the mummy of Merneptah
(Pharaoh) which he did. During his visit to Saudi Arabia he was shown the verses
of the Holy Quran in which Allah says that the dead body of the Pharaoh will be
preserved as a ''Sign'' for posterity. An impartial scientist like Dr. Bucaille,
who (being also a Christian) was converstant with the Biblical version of
Pharaoh's story as being drowned in pursuit of Prophet Moses. He was pleasantly
surprised to learn that unknown to the world till only of late, the Holy Quran
made definite prediction about the preservation of the body of that same Pharaoh
of Moses time. This led Dr. Bucaille to study the Holy Quran thoroughly after
learning the Arabic language. The final conclusion of his comparative study of
Quran and the Bible is that the statements about scientific phenomena in the
Holy Quran are perfectly in conformity with the modern sciences whereas the
Biblical narrations on the same subjects are scientifically entirely
unacceptable.
The present booklet, which is a lecture given by Dr. Bucaille on the subject
Qur'an and Modern Science at the Commonwealth Institute London, will provide
guidance towards the eternal of Islam.
