How does the miracle of the Quran Science explain the harmony between revelation and science? Of the many aspects of the miracle of Kalamullah, which is in accordance with the trend of the development of today, of course science or science. Like ancient times, what developed was the language aspect. From now on, let's learn the enthusiasm.
Quran Cordoba - The miracles of the Al -Quran science in today's are actually most needed by the people, in accordance with the development of science and technology. Muslims this century besides experiencing setbacks, many people lag behind the achievement of science and technology. This aspect is often ignored, the focus is still a lot in linguistic miracles. So, there needs to be a awareness movement.
Al-Qur'an besides being a guide to the life of Muslims, but also contains miracles in various aspects, including in the realm of science. This phenomenon is known as a miracle of science , which is the harmony between the truth of the absolute revelation with scientific findings and science.
The Qur'an is not a scientific book, but many scientific cues to think, their verses encourage exploration, observation, and reflection of the universe with a very approach that is in line with the scientific method.
We also need to understand the definition of science. Etymologically, the word 'science' in Indonesian from the word "science" which actually comes from the language of "scientia" which means knowing or knowledge, (to know, knowledge) and 'scire' which means learning (to learning) (M. Muslih, 2016). Miracles of science means extraordinary miracle in aspects of science.
Then, how is the development of science, research, scientific research in Muslim countries today? Not yet a major concern and is still lagging behind other countries. That is the importance of educational education The importance of understanding the miracles of the Koran science.
One of the interesting things about the Qur'an is how the verses motivated humanity to think critically and examine nature. For example in Surat al-Ghasyiyah verses 17-20:
Meaning: "So do they not pay attention to the camel how to be created? And how elevated the sky? And how are the mountains upheld? And the earth is it spread?"
This verse contains the spirit of observation, which is the main element in scientific thinking. Science grows from the observation method of the five senses, the formulation of hypotheses, experiments with clear mind. In many cases, the Qur'an encourages many people to conduct in-depth research, the verification of science long before humans have scientific methods and research.
There needs to be awareness and movement that the revelation and development of science, is a need for the people of this era. The most important miracle of the Prophet is the Qur'an which has an inherent value with science, to strengthen faith and charity.
Allah is the source of all science. Even the first surah that came down to the Prophet Muhammad was the order of reading. Surah Al-alaq verse 1;
Meaning: " Read with (mention) the name of your Lord who created ,"
Furthermore, there are approximately 750 signals related to science. Hamid Fahmy Zarkasy, the leader of Gontor agreed on the opinion of the Qur'an as a source of science truth. He held the view that the scientific tradition was born precisely because of the content contained in the Qur'an and gave the stimulus of the Prophet's friends to think and examine.

The authenticity and originality of the Qur'an which has been maintained since 14 centuries ago is evidence of its glory, that its contents do not experience distortion, become a source of science. This sturdy foundation for Muslims further strengthens belief, that the content in it is the source of faith, as well as scientific science.
When modern science proves something mentioned in the Qur'an, it becomes confirmation, not validation-because the faith does not require experimentation, but the miracle of the Qur'an is open to anyone who wants to think.
The miracles of the Quran science are not just narratives or adjustments to scientific findings, but harmony between revelation and knowledge. The Qur'an invites humans to think, examine, and understand the universe as the greatness of God.
The Islamic scholars have always gave an example, science and faith went hand in hand, not in conflict.
In the midst of the modern science era, the existence of the Qur'an as a source of inspiration for science and spiritual values is at the same time one of the biggest miracles that is still alive today.
