CREATION OF THE UNIVERSE ACCORDING TO THE VIEW OF THE QUR'AN AND SCIENCE

Abstract

This article discusses the creation of the universe from the perspective of the Qur'an and science, revealing the similarities and differences between the two. Through literature study and text analysis, it was found that the concept of creation in the Koran is in harmony with modern scientific theories such as the Big Bang and the universe's expansion. The Qur'an describes creation in the "six ages," the formation of heaven and earth, and cosmic expansion that parallels scientific discoveries. This study emphasizes the importance of dialogue between science and religion to enrich our understanding of the universe. With an interdisciplinary approach, this research proposes the integration of theological and empirical views as a path to a more holistic understanding.
