Abstract

The relation of science and religion is one of the most important interdisciplinary issues in the world from the past to the present. Any kinds of religion generally brought about a new challenging discussion with science; Islam and its scriptures are not exceptions in this case. The Qur'an as a main Islamic scripture has a direct relation with science and scientific matters according to many thinkers' declarations; it is obvious that there are opponents for this subject, on the other side. The purpose of this paper is to examine main categories of the relation of science and religion and then assess and reveal the opponents and adherents' beliefs regarding the relation of religion and science and relation of science and the Qur'an with a precise library method. This paper provided readers with the role and dignity of science in Islam and remarkable viewpoints of great thinkers regarding the issue of the relation of science and the Qur'an.
