BismiLlah,

My brother, a good # of people are saying nowadays that there is no God, would you believe them?

If any scientific discovery contradicts the Sunnah then it's for sure wrong.

if the whole world tells us that alcohol is the cure to the newest death dealing disease would we take it or say its haram?


then why do we take modern scientific opinions as facts in the first place..?

there is a principle in the Quran and sunnah called necessity overruling prohibition.

that means even though it is haram to kill wild animals just for their furs, if you live somewhere extremely cold this rule no longer applies as without those furs you would die.

simularly alcohol has been used in medicines in the past amongst muslim doctors.

this doesnt change its position of being haram, only that to prevent death or serious injury it is permissable to do haram to avoid that.

nobody is saying dont take scientic proven points as facted, only that the ultimate truth belongs to Allah and just as many times in the past when these 'scientific truths' were known by all as being correct, we still said they were wrong and the Quran and sunnah correct.

for example, for hundreds of years the thinkers of the west said the world was flat, we said it is round and they laughed, should we have abandoned our ideas for theirs just because it is more prevelent?

or as already mentioned on embriology, we were laughed at for 1300 years until the microscope, science said we were wrong but we know Allah and his Rasool (saws) didnt lie so the scientists must be mistaken in this case.

who cares what a scientist new studies shows... until its proven then we should not follow it...

because a lot of them are legitimate and permissible...of course you ignore the ones that are haram, etc. but there are still alot of scientific knowledge that is still legitimate.

please be careful as to what you label as permissible or not. after all, you are propagating islam!

i dont feel you are actually reading what is being written here for your benefit.

i never said that, nor has anyone else. scientists try there best, often they are right but there is a better evidence, a better proof which overrides everything they say which is the Quran and sunnah.
 
scientist are only rigth about the stuff the quran doesnt orrveride huh?

even if they have proof?
