The Cosmos as the created book and its implications for the orientation of science.(Critical essay)

Islam & Science | June 22, 2008| | Copyright

Based on the conception of the Cosmos as a grand, created Book consisting of Divine Signs, a conception made possible by the linguistic-conceptual system of the Islamized Arabic, this article deliberates on the orientation of science in Islam by elaborating on two theoretical implications of such a conception: one being the avoidance of secularization as a philosophical program, the most fundamental component of which is the disenchantment of nature; and the other being the appropriation of the tafsir-ta'wil method of reading the signs and symbols of the Qur'an into science.
