Mohammed Hameed Siddiqui
Scientific exegesis (tafsir ilmi) is a part of the Qur’anic exegesis and has a long history in Muslim thought. Several popular exegeses (tafaseer) of the Quran lack scientific interpretation and only account for linguistics, jurisprudence, and theology. This book is an attempt to fill in this gap.
Siddiqui has conducted his multidisciplinary research in several branches of science and humanities that exhibit the Clear Signs in the Quran in the Physical Universe, the Social and Ethical Sphere, the approved practices in Islam, and the events in prophets’ stories. This includes fields of study such as astrophysics, autophagy, the birth of the universe, dermatoglyphics, cosmology, embryology, genetics, geology, the history of Abrahamic prophets, inheritance in Islam, the linguistic coherence of the Quran, the proofs of its unaltered text of God, melittology, oceanography, the prediction of Prophet Muhamad (PBUH) in previous holy books, the reality of jinn, and space-time relativity.
He studied at the master’s level in petroleum engineering and business management at Stanford University after his chemical engineering B.Tech. Degree at IIT Varanasi in India. He received a good conduct and merit certificate from the President of India and the Albert Nelson Marquis Lifetime Achievement Award in science and engineering.
