God and the Universe

Creator and devotion to Him. The Creator has created all the things that exist, so they are all signs of the Creator, pointing as they do to the One who brought them into being. The subject matter of modern science is Nature or, in other words, God’s creation. The research findings of modern science provide a vast field of information about God’s creation, pondering how we can increase our understanding of the Creator. Developing our insights about God’s creation by contemplating scientific findings can help deepen our spiritual personality by making us more conscious of the presence of the Creator and more aware of His attributes reflected in His creation. It can be said that turning one’s back to God is the root of all evil. In our times, the widespread phenomenon of heedlessness of God’s creation plan has led to all sorts of evils.

However, as this book brilliantly shows, the findings of contemporary science point precisely in the opposite direction, clearly testifying to the One God, Creator, Master, and Sustainer of the universe, as described in the Quran. This being the case, science can significantly help promote God-consciousness rather than undermine it.
