You should care which side of the fence someone sits on because it will dictate how they believe or recieve information. How does science prove the quran is the word of God, and in what ways have science learned from the quran? Feel free to list examples.
When it comes to the truth there is no sides, there is one truth. Almost every scientific statement in the Quran is backed by science today and the ones that are not backed by science are because science cannot disprove or approve of them just yet. Science has learned many things from the Quran, read up on the renaissance and where it really started, by muslim scholars in Iraq. Some of the first and most important surgeries (e.g Cataracts), medicine, mathematics, biology, chemistry discoveries were made by muslims. There is a round globe at Al-Azhar university in Egypt which is a Islamic University, the globe dates back to I believe the year 998. Many of this information like the roundness of the earth was obtained from the Quran. Another way science can learn from the Quran is too look at what else it says, because so far everything that is in the Quran that science has discovered proves the Quran to be right. There are many, heres a couple from different fields of science.
"Do not the Unbelievers see that the heavens and the earth were joined together (as one unit of creation), before we clove them asunder? We made from water every living thing. Will they not then believe” Surat Al-Anbiyaa verse 30
"And God has created every animal from water: of them there are some that creep on their bellies; some that walk on two legs; and some that walk on four. God creates what He wills for verily God has power over all things.” Surat Al-Noor verse 45
In the first verse it talk about the big bang theory, this translation does not do justice to the real meaning in arabic, theres also many other verses that talk about the big bang theory in the Quran but lets move on. At the end of the verse it pretty much sums up evolution and its clear cut, along with the second verse I posted up.
Another one is the speed of light and the theory of relativity in the Quran go here

And theres more but ill stop.
If you have not read the whole book why do you claim the book is unbiased? Why make such a claim before reading it?
What I stated was from what I “heard” the book was unbiased. You see people usually read reviews of books before they read them and I simply kicked down the reviews that I read, and clearly stated that this was not my opinion since that’s what I heard and read about the book.
Would you agree that your statement proves you follow what others say before you yourself have actually verified it? Would you also agree its illogical to claim something is unbiased without reading it?
No I don’t follow what others say unless its in a subject in which they are more knowledgable than me. But when it comes too books I believe a majority of the people listen to what others have to say about the book(reviews) before reading it, and I simply kicked it down to yall.

Depending on the knowledge you have you can call bullshit too. The guy who writes these articles writes complete non sense trying to refute scientific facts which by the way scientists back the Quran, all this just to keep his site open. Why? Because of the many conversions to Islam that have been going on for the past 3 decades.
http://www.answering-christianity.com/avijit_roy_quran_science_miracles_rebuttal.htm I really didn’t want to put this link up, but I have too, this site has good and bad. The good is that it makes complete fools of the other site, the bad is that they use the same tactics the other site does to talk bad about the bible.
How does science prove the quran is the word of God?
In science there is the scientific theory. No amount of experimental testing can prove a hypothesis beyond a shadow of a doubt. But a hypothesis gains credibility by surviving various attempts to falsify it. And so far nothing has been falsified in what the Quran says. If the Quran makes such statements like life originated from water, which less than a hundred years ago such a thing would be ridiculous, yet it was in the Quran for over 1400 years. If the Quran is right in all aspects and nothing in it can be disproved then I believe its safe to say science proves the Quran is the word of God.
You have your opinion based on the fact you are a muslim following islam and the book leans towards the quran being the word of God. You also base this opinion on pure speculation because according to your own words you have not read it yet. Would it be safe to say you are bias?
I beleieved I stated that I am biased in my last post.
How do you know the hamburger from Mcdonalds is made from beef and not pork?
Knowledge.
Personally, I took it upon myself to reserahc and study various religions and beliefs. In doing so I was able to learn about the textus receptus major (something you don't learn about in sunday school) and study some of the languages the scriptures were written in. However you fail to realize the bible is a COLLECTION of books and NOT one book. Maybe you should research WHY the bibles have missing books before you label it as a falsehood.
Did you study Islam? It all comes down to this there are thousands of different copies of the bible. No matter how much studying you do, you will find one thing the bible was not preserved. By the way if you studied and researched about the biblical scriptures did you read up on the coming of the “Proclete” or “the Comforter” that jesus spoke about? The translation of that word in aramiac or greek is exactly the meaning of Mohammad in Arabic, from what I have read.
Please define "real bible."
The word of God transmitted by Jesus to the people and written down in his time.
So why question "the people of the book" and declare the bible as being wrong? If no confusion is to be made about the quran, you would have EVERY muslim on this planet following the quran the EXACT same way, with no diviation and no difference in interpretation.
Because the Quran, and the research I have done about the compilation of the bible tell me that the bible has been tampered with and changed. To the second part of your statement/question, if you grab a Quran from a follower of the nation of Islam, a shia, a sunni, a sufi etc.. etc.. etc.. you will find it to be EXACTLY the same. You say then there would be no deviation or difference in interpretation? That’s the beauty the truth is right there it depends on what intentions you have and if you really want to believe in Gods will and not for some cultural or personal benefits. If I give you directions to get to a certain place its up to you to get there. You can try to take shortcuts or get different ideas, but it all comes back to the directions or in this case the Quran. And by the way a majority of the muslims over 80 percent, are on the correct path and God knows best.
I was just asking about Exodus because that always boggled me, how can the trinity be believed by so many people when those verses right there exist. With the gospel of Barnabas I know exactly what the muslim and christian perspectives are, I was asking your opinion but I guess you carry the same perspective as the latter link. Me I take the gospel of Barnabas the same way I take the other gospels, because they have both truth and falsness. The thing that sticks out to me is that it was Judas on the cross and not Jesus peace be upon him which makes sense to me since in the bible while the so called “jesus” is on the cross he asked God why he had forsaken him. Questions pop up in my mind like if that was jesus why would God ask himself that question? Why would the son of God as himself that question? Why would the prophet of God ask that question?
