Abstract
The research work titled "Modern Perspective of Life Science In the Glorious Qur'an: Synthesis and Analysis of Muslim Scholars Views" is an attempt to highlight the Divine Literature and some ideas of modern scientists
on areas related to animals, human embryology, and plants. The objectives of the study are to point out some scientific miracles of the Glorious Qur'an connected to Life Science and how it is compatible to it. The significance of the research is to justify the saying of Allah (SWT) in the Qur'an that "Nothing have We omitted from the book" (Q6:38). The researcher reviewed the Literature using the primary and secondary sources. The Qur'anic verses, Ahadith of the Prophet (S.A. W) and books of Tafsir (Qur'anic commentaries) were used as primary sources. The textbooks, journals, conference and seminar papers and data from internet were used as secondary sources. The major topics touched include the relationship between Qur'an and science, the nature of animals, human and plants' creation, man's sensory organs and acquisition of soul, ecosystem and its component parts, among other things. This study does not require the use of
statistical analysis, because it is not experimental in nature. The study found that there are compatibility between some aspects of Life Science and the Glorious Qur'an in modern perspective.
