Dr. Maurice Bucaille (1920- 1998) was a French Professor of the French Academy of medicine, medical doctor and author. Dr. Maurice Bucaille, said in his book ‘The Quran, and Modern Science’:
“A totally objective examination of it [the Quran] in the light of modern knowledge, leads us to recognize the agreement between the two, as has been already noted on repeated occasions.
It makes us deem it quite unthinkable for a man of Muhammad’s time to have been the author of such statements, on account of the state of knowledge in his day.
Such considerations are part of what gives the Quranic Revelation its unique place, and forces the impartial scientist to admit his inability to provide an explanation which calls solely upon materialistic reasoning”.
Commenting on the astonishing level of advanced knowledge in Quran, Dr. Maurice Bucaille says:
“There is no human work in existence that contains statements as far beyond the level of knowledge of its time as the Quran. Scientific opinions comparable to those in the Quran are the result of modern knowledge”.
