Comments on "It is Truth"
Comments on
"It is the Truth" is a visually attractive site that is full of
colorful pictures and illustrations. It is based on the work of
Sheikh Abdul Majeed Zindani
and the Commission on Scientific
Signs in the Quran and Sunnah, an institution that once enjoyed the
support of Osama bin Laden. The goal of this webpage is to convince
us that the Qur'an contains scientific facts, many of which were
discovered recently, in order to prove that the Qur'an is of divine
origin. The "science" of the Qur'an presented here is, in most
cases, constructed from extreme extrapolations of a word, or phrase,
taken from the Qur'an or Hadith.
The authors also cite many "authorities" who believe (although most do not publish
these beliefs, especially in the west) that the Qur'an is factually correct.
Some of these experts are well known, but this can hardly imply that their opinions
are beyond question. Many of the better-known scientists claim that the website
"It is the Truth" mis-represents their opinions, including
Dr. Simpson, Professor Palmer,
Dr. Goeringer, and Dr. Hay.
For some others their status as "experts" seems to be overrated since their names
cannot be found in any major institution and no academic papers have been published
under their names. In any event, let us scientifically evaluate if "It is Truth".
Note: The original website is no longer available. An Islamic site in Hongkong has
mirrored the original state here.
Newer versions of the site are now at www.what-islam.com
and www.thisistruth.org. At the latter locations,
the structure has changed somewhat since we have written our responses. Nevertheless,
the interested reader should be able to match the Muslim claims and our answers without
too much effort in order to compare and evaluate.
