Is a Muslim, by virtue of following the methodology of the Salaf in understanding the Qur’an and Sunnah, required to adhere to the interpretations of the Salaf regarding verses and hadiths related to worldly matters or scientific miracles?

Natural sciences are not among the objectives of the Holy Quran nor are they part of the Islamic Sharia sciences; rather, they are human endeavors. The Quran and Sunnah aim to guide humanity in matters of religion and ethics. The sayings of the Companions and the Successors focused on purification (Tazkiyah), jurisprudence (Fiqh), and creed (Aqidah), and natural sciences were not among their primary concerns. The sayings of the Companions regarding natural sciences are not a legal proof (Hujjah Shar'iyyah) because the legal texts pertaining to consensus (Ijma) and the understanding of the Salaf are limited to the domain of faith, as affirmed by the prophetic Hadith: "You are more knowledgeable of your worldly affairs." Scholars have refuted some narrated traditions (Athariyyat) concerning natural sciences due to their contradiction with reality or the possibility of them being from Isra'iliyyat (Judeo-Christian traditions), such as the interpretations of the rainbow and Mount Qaf.
