Mu’jizat al-‘Anbiya’ bayn al-‘Aql wal ‘Ilm (Miracles of Prophets between Reason and Science)
The book Mu’jizat al-‘Anbiya’ bayn al-‘Aql wal ‘Ilm (Miracles of Prophets between Reason and Science), authored by Sheikh Muhammad As-Sadiq Arjoun, a distinguished Azharite scholar, stems from a lecture he delivered at the Alexandria Religious Institute in 1955, during a series of cultural talks commemorating the Isra and Mi'raj. This occasion allowed Sheikh Arjoun to explore a critical aspect of prophethood—the nature of miracles and how they are perceived by both reason and science. The book delves into whether the texts and essence of religion can interpret the prophets' miracles in a scientific manner, potentially aligning them with modern scientific principles or likening them to contemporary inventions to enhance their credibility. It emphasizes that miracles are signs of the prophets' authenticity and divine validation, pointing out that the role of divine messages in life is akin to the role of human reason among individuals.
