Zakir Naik – The Quran Stands Ahead of the Latest Advancements in Embryology

00:00:00 --> 00:00:02

There were a group of Arabs

00:00:02 --> 00:00:04

who followed the advice given in the Quran.

00:00:05 --> 00:00:05

In

00:00:05 --> 00:00:08

chapter 16 verse 43, and chapter number 21,

00:00:08 --> 00:00:09

verse number 7.

00:00:10 --> 00:00:10

Which

00:00:14 --> 00:00:14

says,

00:00:15 --> 00:00:16

If you don't know,

00:00:16 --> 00:00:19

ask the person who possesses the knowledge.

00:00:20 --> 00:00:23

So this group of Arabs, they collected

00:00:23 --> 00:00:25

all the material in the Quran and the

00:00:25 --> 00:00:27

Hadith, which speaks about embryology,

00:00:27 --> 00:00:30

and they presented it to professor doctor Keith

00:00:30 --> 00:00:31

Moore, who at that time,

00:00:32 --> 00:00:33

in the early eighties

00:00:34 --> 00:00:34

19 eighties,

00:00:35 --> 00:00:38

he was one of the persons who was

00:00:38 --> 00:00:40

authority in the field of embryology, and he

00:00:40 --> 00:00:42

was the head of the department of anatomy

00:00:43 --> 00:00:45

in the University of Toronto.

00:00:47 --> 00:00:48

So they presented the translation

00:00:49 --> 00:00:51

of the various verses of the Quran to

00:00:51 --> 00:00:52

prophet Keith Moore.

00:00:53 --> 00:00:55

And they asked him that what are your

00:00:55 --> 00:00:55

comments?

00:00:56 --> 00:00:58

So after going through the translation of the

00:00:58 --> 00:01:00

various verses of the Quran, the Hadith, he

00:01:00 --> 00:01:02

said that most of the information

00:01:03 --> 00:01:04

given in the Quran

00:01:04 --> 00:01:06

is in perfect conformity

00:01:07 --> 00:01:08

with modern embryology.

00:01:09 --> 00:01:10

But there are

00:01:10 --> 00:01:11

a few verses

00:01:12 --> 00:01:15

which I cannot say that they are correct.

00:01:16 --> 00:01:18

Neither can I say they're wrong because I

00:01:18 --> 00:01:19

myself about

00:01:22 --> 00:01:22

it?
