I will like to share this stories that bring ecstatic tears to the thoughtful
Some years ago, the story came to us in Toronto about a man who was in themerch a n t
marine and made his living on the sea. A Muslim gave him a translation of the Quran to read.

The merchant marine knew nothing about the history of Islam but was interested in reading
the Quran. When he finished reading it, he brought it back to the Muslim and asked, "This
Muhammad, was he a sailor?" He was impressed at how accurately the Quran describes a
storm on a sea. When he was told, "No as a matter of fact, Muhammad lived in the desert,"
that was enough for him. He embraced Islam on the spot.

He was so impressed with the Quran's description because he had been in a storm on the sea,
and he knew that whoever had written that description had also been in a storm on the sea.
The description of "a wave, over it a wave, over it clouds" (Surah Nur, 24:40) was not what
someone imagining a storm on a sea to be like would have written; rather, it was written by
someone who knew what a storm on the sea was like. This is one example of how the Quran is
not tied to certain place and time. Certainly, the scientific ideas expressed in it also do not
seem to originate from the desert fourteen centuries ago.
