Rating:  Summary: mind-Intriguing Review: As a person in the scientific field, I don't accept or 'believe' anything if it did not make sense or if it was not supported by scientific facts. There are a lot of contemporary scientific facts and theories: - The Big Bang theory in the creation of the universe. - The expansion of the universe. - Water is the basis of life - Living creatures, including humans, are made mostly of water. - The embryonic protective layers - The medicinal properties of honey - ... ... etc All these facts are mentioned in the Quran as the author explains. After reading the book, I paused for a while and then said:Hmmmm! Re-examining one's self and one's faith almost immediatly follows. Of course, everyone can come to whatever conculsion they wish. My personal conclusion is: I am one step closer to finding the Truth.
Rating:  Summary: Marvelous! Unbiased and Objective! Review: Excellent Book! Excellent Work, Full of facts. It is out of this world. It is real eye opener. Basic facts are same, so there is no question of book being outdated. It shows that how much a French can be unbiased and objective while analyzing the facts. This book is for you if you are lost reading atheist. The book shows that religion and science not only can co-exist but also they complement each other. Finding a truth is more like rely race. You can go up to extent with the help of science and then you have to pass the stick to religion Note: One need to read this book twice with objective mind to understand. If a person doesn't understand first time, before writing the comments the book should read again. Buying the original Koran will also help.
Rating:  Summary: Reply to: Muslims Believe that Earth Is Flat.! Review: I recommend this book to everyone, and I'd suggest that you return to the authentic resources first before making any judgments.
I don't think that Al-Mufti of Saudi Arabia would announce a fatwa in 1999 that he will whip Sheikh Al-Sharawi because of two simple reasons:
1. Sheikh Al-Sharawi was not under the jurisdiction of Al-Mufti of Saudi Arabia, he was an Egyptian resident, and
2. Sheikh Al-Sharawi died in June 1998 (Al-Mufti wouldn't whip a dead person, would he?)
And regarding the explanation of the word "Bussataa"; why don't you go first and check the meanings of that word in the Arabic dictionaries before you present your explanation. That word has many meanings and you can't just pick the meaning that you like, it has to fit the in the context rightly. Moreover, I never read in the Quran's interpretations or the explanations that this word meant "Flat". I'd suggest that you read from authentic Islamic resources. I wish you to be guided to the straight path.
Rating:  Summary: Marvelous! Unbiased and Objective! Review: If the scriptures are really from the heavens then they must conform completely and perfectly to scientific knowledge. They must not contain a single sentence or word that contradicts scientific knowledege or breakthrough. They must be perfect and without error. Although Maurice Baucille was a Christian when he wrote this book he has proven beyond doubt what we Muslims have known for over 1400 years that the Qur'an is perfect, errorless and completely conforms with scientific knowledge and discoveries. Science has only recently begun to prove what we Muslims were told in the Qur'an over 1400 years ago. The Qur'an is perfect and is the word of GOD becuase only the word of GOD can be perfect. If anybody has any doubts on the perfection on the Qur'an or would like to see the many inconsistencies in the Bible he should surely read this book. A must for scientist who believe in GOD or are seeking the truth. I am a physician by trade and it has only proven to me things I already knew from medical school.
Rating:  Summary: A must-read for the scientific minded individual Review: The Quran, in one of the earliest revelations, says "READ".
Seeking the truth is part of every intelligent man's responsibility.
This book is an intelligent piece of literature and deserves our attention. Whether you are an agnostic or you are an atheist or of course a Christian; take a few quality minutes and give Dr. Maurice a chance to give an unbiased scientific study of Quran and the Bible.
Rating:  Summary: Faith Confirmation Using the Truth Review: This book is valuable in that it shows the difference between "Divinely Inspired" and "Divine Revelation." A distinction making clear why Al-Islam is important and should not be dismissed out of hand by the other two Abrahamic Religions.

Rating:  Summary: A book thats no longer significant or relevant today Review: This work by Bucaille has already been refuted and debunked fully by Dr.William Campbell's response "The Quran and the Bible in the Light of History and Science"! -also available from Amazon. What proper 'Science' can we possibly learn from the Quran, which states that Alexander the Great looked for the setting Sun and found the Sun setting in a 'pool of muddy water'-Surah 18 v.83 onwards ! The sun must MOVE towards or around the Earth, for this to happen. And the sun also SHRINKS smaller then the Earth in order to be absorbed into a muddy pool, yes? This is in stark contradiction to Science which says the Earth rotates around the sun, and its the Sun which is stationary -not the other way around! Then in the same Surah, we learn that Alexander the Great made a dam of molten brass and iron between two mountains..! Something thats both historically and archaeologically UNTRUE and totally false and UN-proven! Then also in surah al-Muluk 67 onwards the Quran teaches that we can use the Stars for stoning the Devil (Satan)..! How scientific indeed! Dr.Campbell's Book puts it back into perspective for us by correcting a lot of the major flaws in Bucaille's. Bucaille's statements on the Bible, Gospels and Christianity itself are especially very speculative, selective and misleading to say the least. It is high time for Bucaille and his sponsors to return to the drawing board and give this 'obsolete' book a major revamp, using Dr.Campbell's scholarly comments and response as a guide. Or else, as another reviewer has said, this book will surely drift away into the wilderness of non-significance! It actually deserves "minus-Four stars"!
Rating:  Summary: LOADS OF RESEARCH IN TERMS OF SCIENCE AND RELIGION! Review: WHat is honestly not fair, is people lowering their feedbacks more then neccesarly, on a book, simply because it is aginast their opinions, or they don't like that the book speaks praisingly about something they dislike. I own the original of this book, and i am honestly going to say: NO ONE CAN DENY this scientist, surgeon, and mathmtecian etc... did do RESERACH. You can't deny it, even if you wnat to give him negative stars. It's a clear cut easy read book, with many scientific facts compared to what the bible, the quran as well as some of the torah, has to say. there's an introduction to each religion's belif, not opinionated. THIS man is a non-muslim! why would he lie about something and then take the time to write a book, had his observations been false? Being non-muslim, i half expected this book to be written in an answering-to tone of all the bible's "misconceptions".Unlike most books who merely state opinions and well... have no root of research, this man took time. Science is a big thing. you can't state your opinion without a theory, research, an experiment, and a conclusion. THat is exaclty what this author did.
