Introduction

Throughout the course of history, the acquisition of knowledge concerning matters beyond general man’s reach has always been a coveted treasure, for which scholars, philosophers, astronomers, scientists, etc. devoted great portions of their lives. The results of their research and experience were forever to be appreciated and considered as aids for those that would strive in these fields in later years.

Due to much of their views however being based upon assumption, the scope for error would always be present. Thus, no aspect of these sciences would ever achieve a mantle described as ‘the absolute truth’. Wherever and whenever theories of science and philosophy would stand in contradiction to clear-cut knowledge derived from the Quraan and the Sunnah these scientific and philosophical theories would be out-rightly refuted.
