What is the ruling on the statement: "Science does not contradict faith or religion," and is it correct?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
The truths of science and religion do not contradict each other, for both originate from Allah. The Islamic religion does not deny a proven scientific truth, nor is there any established truth that religion denies. Secularism has no connection to science; it is propagated by secularists to cast doubt on religion, yet they are the furthest people from both science and religion. Secularism is a man-made, atheistic system that contradicts Islam.
