INTRODUCTION:

 Within the Holy Quran, there are miraculous scientific indications; they are miraculous because they, 1400 ago when the Quran was being revealed in the 7^th century A.D., predict scientific facts discovered by humanity in the 20^th and 21^st centuries A.D. Of course, our writings which ponder the Quranic verses that contain miraculous scientific indications are not infallible and they may require corrections and revisions. Within the domain of science, experiments in some cases fail, but many times of failure often lead to success eventually; real scientists know that trial and error is a fundamental method of problem solving; they insist on their research and experiments to reach the truth. This BOOK which you are reading now links the Quranic miraculous scientific indications to modern scientific facts and theories; besides, it raises the awareness of the West about the metaphysical realm of the Barsakh; scientists now knock at the gates of these metaphysical universes; because this is an ethereal realm which is not material or physical, some scientists reject researching it; most people forget that metaphysical levels exist even if we cannot see them; e.g., human souls (which control human bodies) pertain to this Barsakh level; the brains are merely the physical control-rooms used by the human souls to drive and control the physical human bodies. The difference between human souls and souls of animals/creatures is that human souls can choose freely and they can learn; they are tested in this life; they will be judged by the Lord God on the Day of Resurrection. Of course, the history of science is filled with unprecedented leaps in thought that have changed the course of scientific progress and advancement; this BOOK aims at raising awareness of specialized scientists within all branches of science and knowledge to the importance of the miraculous scientific indications in some Quranic verses, especially regarding metaphysical, ethereal Barsakh realm which is unacknowledged by most scientists in the West who never wish to study and research this topic. For sure, scientific progress/advancement in the 20^th and 21^st centuries A.D. has reached what was deemed in the 18^th and 19^th centuries as improbable illusions/myths assumed to pertain only to wild imagination. The boundaries are very hazy now between science-fiction and scientific achievements; hence, specialized scientists should pay attention to the Quranic miraculous scientific indications about the Barsakh, earth, and heavens (i.e., the universe). Of course, we are not a writer who specializes in any branch of science; rather, we are a Quranist thinker specializes in the Quran and in history; as we ponder on the miraculous scientific indications in some Quranic verses, we hope to draw the attention of specialized scientists to ponder, reflect, contemplate, and take heed of the Quranic miraculous scientific indications in order to infer some facts and reach their own conclusions. The greatness of the Holy Quran includes the fact that even non-specialized, ordinary persons (like ourselves, as we know little about modern science) can infer and conclude many facts from the Quranic verses that contain miraculous scientific indications, let alone specialized scientists who can delve deeper in reflection and pondering; we hope this BOOK will arouse the scientific curiosity of people in the West; for centuries, scientists in the West never cared about studying the Quranic miraculous scientific indications; some of the scientific facts asserted in the Quran have been discovered by the people in the West centuries after the descent/revelation of the Quran. There are other Quranic miraculous scientific indications about facts which have not been examined and studied yet by scientists in the West; we hope very much that scientists would focus their attention to these Quranic indications. Lastly, we reassert here that what we have written in this BOOK is liable to be corrected and revised by those who are interested; it will be much appreciated if we would receive any corrections, comments, and revisions.
