The Method for the Discovery of God

should be separated from their unobservable aspect. Before Galileo, scientists could not delink one from the other. Because they were so focused on discovering the unobservable aspect of things, they remained deprived of that which was observable. But now the entire focus became concentrated on those aspects which were observable. In this way, it was possible to discover the observable aspect of things and thus also indirectly gain knowledge about the unobservable aspect of things. In other words, it was now possible to scientifically study the ‘observable’ creation and by way of this discovery, reach the ‘unobservable’ Creator behind the creation. This method is called the inferential method of argument. This scientific method resulted in indirectly uncovering divine truths. This is why in the twentieth century several books and articles were penned on this subject. An example is The Evidence of God in an Expanding Universe: Forty American Scientists Declare their Affirmative Views on Religion (John Clover Monsma, G.P. Putnam’s Sons, 1958, pp. 250) This book has been translated into Arabic with the title Allahu Yatajalla fi Asr il-Ilm (1968). I can say that I have made God the subject of study my entire life. After deep study, I have published several books and articles on this. One of the books is titled in Urdu Mazhab Aur Jadid Challenge (1966). This book has been translated into Arabic as Al-Islam Yatahadda (1976) and into English as God Arises (1987). By differentiating between the unobservable and observable aspect of things, new scientific knowledge came to light. This can be used to rationally prove the veracity of religious truths.
