Salam,
I am a Muslim living in Canada and was hoping you can answer a question for me. Recently I have started to have doubts about the religion and have tried to find the answers online. However, this search has only led to more doubt and confusion. I am finding information online that says the science in the quran is inaccurate. Is this possible?

Wasalam,
Science by its very definition does not, and cannot, provide absolute truth. Science is based on observations, and this is why its conclusions change over time, because new observations make scientists change their previous conclusions. Thus what is a scientific consensus and considered factual one day can quickly be discarded the next. In fact history is littered with such paradigm shifts, such as the change from a steady state universe to a Big Bang model, the change from Newtonian physics to Quantum physics, etc.
The Qur'an, by comparison, does represent absolute truth because it is from Al-Haqq, The Absolute Truth, The Reality.
Do you see why judging the Qur'an by the measure of science is nonsensical? The Qur'an can contradict science, because science can contradict itself. But the Qur'an can never contradict reality.
