Mathematical Phenomena in the Holy Qur’an and their Significance

An Analytical and Research Overview

Abstract

 It is an analytical and communtrative research study, supported by Muslim science history and Quranics. Examples of Muslim scientist's mathematical work, are given to show the importance of mathematical measurements and accuracy in Quranic instructive orders. Mathematics rules, laws and formulae are applied to practice of Islam, of its Quranics and they do show their practical importance and value in computing, calculation and production of ushr, zakat, prayer and fasting timings as well as divine ordained homages, related to sun and moon movements. Importance of topic (mathematical phenomena in the Holy Quran) is that it is totally impossible to act upon the Quranic orders of Allahalmighty without their mathematical version (measurement, counting and calculation).
Mathematics have been involved in different universal phenomena since the origin of the universe. Mathematical knowledge plays a key role in the performance of different religious obligations and condacts since it is impossible to determine and fix, even the basic initial limits, quantities and actionary directions witout it. Regarding role of great muslim scholars, scientists and especially muslim mathematicians, remained very precious and prominent in the imitation of our kind and holy prophet Hazrat Mohammad(P.B.U.H), his companion (As'hab-ur–RasoolR.A), their fore followers (Taba'eenR.E), next followers (Taba Taba'eenR.E), saintsR.E, four ImamsR.E, Islamic scholars and other God fearing and well wishing, upcoming religious problems solution seekers. They have thrown mathematical light of comprehension and accuracy on different Qura'nic topics and verses in order to determine their goals. Their works have been mostly linked with performance of Islamic vows, digital countings, determinations, statistical illustrations, mentioning the actionary limits and different Qura’nic miracles. Research about the role of mathematics in understanding the Qura'nic concept is as vast as research on Qura'n itself. Reason for it is that, after understanding and picking the orders and instructions of Allah almighty, present in the Qura'n, next comes the stage to act upon them, to be facilitated of their blessed light on the straight pathway of life. Infactevery Qura'nic order or instruction requires its mathematical illustrative version for its practical implementation.
