Can the Qur'an and modern science speak to one another in a meaningful, intellectually honest way?
In Quran and Science: A Psychiatrist's Journey through Faith, Mind, and the Cosmos, Dr Hasan Derwish offers a thoughtful and deeply engaging exploration of the relationship between divine revelation, scientific discovery, and the human search for meaning. Writing as a UK-based Consultant Forensic Psychiatrist, he brings together clinical insight, Islamic scholarship, and scientific reflection in a work that is both accessible and substantial.
This book explores a wide range of subjects through the lens of the Qur'an, including cosmology, astronomy, geology, oceanography, biology, embryology, physics, psychology, mental health, and the nature of the human soul. It also examines how reason, observation, and spiritual reflection can coexist without conflict. Rather than forcing modern science into sacred scripture, Dr Derwish takes a balanced and reflective approach, inviting readers to consider how the signs in creation and the signs in revelation may illuminate one another.
What makes this book especially distinctive is the author's professional background in psychiatry. Alongside scientific and theological discussion, he addresses the mind, human development, emotional suffering, moral responsibility, and the relationship between mental health and faith. The result is a rare interdisciplinary work that speaks to readers interested in Islam and science, religion and reason, psychology, spirituality, and the deeper questions of existence.
Rooted in scholarship but written with clarity and warmth, Quran and Science will appeal to Muslim readers, students, academics, clinicians, and thoughtful general readers seeking a serious yet readable contribution to contemporary discussions on faith and knowledge. It is a book about wonder, reflection, and the enduring human desire to understand both the universe around us and the self within.
For readers of Islamic thought, science and religion, psychology, and contemporary spiritual inquiry, this is an illuminating and compelling journey through faith, mind, and the cosmos.
