Quran and the Modern Science[edit]

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Duplicates Quran, Islam and science and Maurice Bucaille, but much less NPOV. It reads like a personal essay extolling the very disputable assertion that the Quran agrees with science and contained scientific foreknowledge. It contains no encyclopaedic content except perhaps one statement about Bucaille. BethNaught (talk) 19:00, 17 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, for all the reasons BethNaught mentioned, and because the sources are unreliable. Consider, for example, the section in The Amazing Quran where the author consults with an embryologist, "who was so surprised at what he found that he changed his textbooks." An example of what he found? "In fact, he said that one item in particular - the Quran's description of the human being as a 'leech-like clot' ('alaqah) [Ghafir 40:67] - was new to him; but when he checked on it, he found that it was true, and so he added it to his book."

Delete as an essay that isn't salvageable. No need at this point for a separate article from Islam and science, and nothing here worth merging. Moswento ^talky 19:56, 17 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per WP:NOT#ESSAY. It seems like the article's creator is using the page as some kind of a blog or journal on his/her personal musings. MezzoMezzo (talk) 03:51, 20 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as a content fork of Islam and science. Heaviness on the POV, and short content, makes this unsalvagable as even a stub. Bearian (talk) 15:53, 21 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
