What Is The Origin Of Man
The Answers Of Science And The Holy Scriptures
By Maurice Bucaille
.
About The Book

This book is a work of mature reflection written with the aim of exposing outmoded antagonisms between science and religion, and showing that far from standing in opposition, the two are perfectly compatible. Whatever the reader’s personal beliefs, he will find here many concrete facts that are all too often overlooked when the subject of man’s origins is raised.

Thus, the reader will be better equipped to take a fresh look at the contribution made by genuine scientific discoveries – free from all ideology – and by the new light that has been cast on the Holy Scriptures.

About The Author

Dr. Maurice Bucaille is an eminent French surgeon, scientist, scholar and author of ”THE BIBLE, THE QUR”AN AND SCIENCE” which contains the result of his research into the Judeo-Christian Revelation and the Quran. It is a unique contribution in the field of religion and science.

Being an outstanding Scientist, he was elected to treat the mummy of Merneptah (Pharaoh) which he did. During his visit to Saudi Arabia he was shown the verses of the Holy Qur’an in which Allah says that the dead body of the Pharaoh will be preserved as a ”Sign” for posterity. An impartial scientist like Dr. Bucaille, who (being also a Christian) was conversant with the Biblical version of Pharaoh’s story as being drowned in pursuit of Prophet Moses. He was pleasantly surprised to learn that unknown to the world till only of late, the Holy Qur’an made definite prediction about the preservation of the body of that same Pharaoh of Moses time. This led Dr. Bucaille to study the Holy Qur’an thoroughly after learning the Arabic language.

The final conclusion of his comparative study of Qur’an and the Bible is that the statements about scientific phenomena in the Holy Qur’an are perfectly in conformity with the modern sciences whereas the Biblical narrations on the same subjects are scientifically entirely unacceptable.

The present booklet, which is a lecture given by Dr. Bucaille on the subject Qur’an and Modern Science at the Commonwealth Institute London, will provide guidance towards the eternal of Islam.
