For example again and again  the Qur\u2019an claims the heart to be the seat of decisions, whilst science  has held the brain is responsible. Likewise, the Qur\u2019an and Hadith refer  to the seven heavens, whilst scientific proof contradicts it? Please  elaborate.<\/p>\n<h3>Answer<\/h3>\n<p>Scientific  research has established the roles of different organs of the body and  it has proved the brain to be the centre of human thought. Similarly, it  has been established that the heart is not related to the thought  process. <\/p>\n<div>The  Qur\u2019an is a literary work, as opposed to a scientific one. It uses  literary metaphors and addresses the hearts. Hence the use of the word \u201cheart\u201d  as a seat of thought. As I have used the word heart here, in spite  being aware of the realities of the mind and the heart. This metaphor is  common to a lot of languages. As we usually say \u201cthat my heart is not in it.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>However,  Qur\u2019an does point to the centre of the human soul. Human thought is one  faculty, based in the brain, human personality is another. Where is the  centre of this invisible human expression in perpetual  evolution? Physically defining personality is beyond the realm of  science and myself. According to the hints in the Qur\u2019an, it is the  heart.<\/p>\n<hr>\n<p>This question was answered by Mr Ghamidi in  Deen-o-Danish, an online TV session hosted by Dr Muneer Ahmad aired on  Dunay TV.
