  • Science Hour - Season 4 - Episode 4 - Science and Islam - Part 2
    Topics covered are the fine tuning of the universe and thing have been designed with precision of events that occurred. This is
    a general discussion about belief in God and what evidence there is. The question of struggle and striving for the truth is
    discussed. The need for and importance of striving is expounded upon and how this is found in the journey of gaining
    secular knowledge. Parallels are drawn between ones own moral and spiritual journeys. The necessity of the gradual
    understanding of reality of the scientific world is essential and the time is needed for development. This episode also
    explores belief in the unseen and how answers the question why we can believe in God with physically being able to
    see our creator. Verse of the Holy Quran is discussed which speaks about belief in the unseen.

  • Science Hour - Season 4 - Episode 3 - Science and Islam - Part 1
    Is there a conflict between religion and science? In order to address the topic, there will be reference to the Holy Quran. The
    short answer that the episode presents, a resounding no, that there is no conflict between these two. The panel
    explores that both religion and science relate to a journey towards truth. There is quote of the second successor in the
    Ahmadiyya Muslim Community who explains that there cannot be a conflict between the word and works of God. The
    episode explores how this conflict emerged in the past. Another similarity between the message of the Holy Quran, is
    observe and reflect, which is also in effect the mantra of science. In the addressing this question the definition of the
    spiritual world and physical world are discussed in detail. This discussion becomes philosophical in places. Another
    question that the episode addresses is can the study of science and natural phenomena get one closer to Allah (the
    Creator).

  • Science Hour - Season 4 - Episode 2 - Can Religion Inspire Scientific Discovery - Part 2
    Starting from historical perspective the episode covers certain scientific achievements in the Golden age.
    Emphasis is placed on three scholars: Ibn Haytham (Alhazen), Al Biruni, Ibn Sina (Avicenna). Al Haytham is considered the
    father of modern optics and the father of the scientific method. Sometimes referred to as one of the greatest scientists of all
    time. Al Biruni, was a polymath (like all three examples) and authored 146 works relating to astronomy, mathematics, and
    geography, did survey on India. Al Biruni, visited India, studied Hinduism and worked out mathematical proofs for the
    circumference of the earth. Avicenna wrote a magnificent medical textbook (Canon of Medicine) that was renowned across the
    world for many centuries until 17 th century. He was also a great philosopher and wrote about the thought experiments such as
    the floating man experiment. He was a child prodigy and mastered medicine by the age of 18. The Muslim leaders at the time
    made significant investments in knowledge, research and scholarship through their investment in libraries, great translation
    movements and the thinkers themselves. Other scientists covered in the episode include Al Khwarizmi, who was a great
    mathematician, who developed the modern numbering system through adding the zero. He was a polymath, and worked on
    geography as well. Others great thinkers covered in this episode included Al Kindi and Ibn Rushd. What were these scholars
    motivated by? This episode explores this question to and tries to understand what the explanation for the Islamic golden age
    was. Earlier motivations were such as trying to solve navigation and for finding the direction for the Qibla. The Holy Quran was
    the great motivator. Arabic became the international language of discussion and science, and both faith and reasoning were
    core principles.

  • Science Hour - Season 4 - Episode 1 - Can Religion Inspire Scientific Discovery - Part 1
    Can religion inspire scientific discovery, part 1. Verses from the Holy Quran on science and reflection are discussed and
    presented. For example, points such as the emphasis that the Holy Quran places on reflection and pondering.
    The episode then explores the relationship between scientific knowledge and spiritual knowledge, which is discussed in detail.
    Points on how one should approach spiritual knowledge, what is spiritual knowledge and physical knowledge and what are the
    boundaries of both. What commonalities and differences are described in the Holy Quran in relation to both.
    The insights from the Holy Quran, sayings of the Holy Prophet and the successors of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Association are
    discussed. Points such as heaven and hell, and the laws of science and laws of spirituality are contrasted. The link between
    the two. Hereafter exists in the same space, multi dimensions. There is discussion about our limits of our understanding and
    continual evolving state of our understanding of the physical world, illustrated by a short discussion the changing model of
    gravity from Newtons to the present day.
