Judging The Religion On Science And Logic


Question

My question is actually about my own behavior. I mostly judge all Islamic beliefs on two scales either Science or Logic. So, I want to ask you a question that whether this behavior is correct or not? Because when I think on Islam logically or scientifically I stuck at most of things which can’t be proven on these two criteria?

Answer

I don’t think religion has anything to do with science, however a religious belief needs to be logical because human being is made in a way that he can only accepts logical arguments. The only tiny little point is to appreciate that the following statement is also logical:

“Since religion is related to the Almighty, and since we cannot fully understand the Almighty, therefore there are certain aspects of religion that we might not find a logical explanation for them. Once we accept a religion through logic, the above statement is nothing but logical”.
I hope the above answers your question in a general way. If you have any specific follow up questions then please feel free to let us know.
