| Summary: | The main issue of the present article is the development of embryo. This <br /> subject is essentially a scientific one, but as it can be employed for leading <br /> human beings to acknowledging God, it has been mentioned in the holy <br /> revealed words of God and has gained attention of different Quranic exegetes. <br /> In this article the view point of two of the exegetes with philosophical and theological taste has been compared with that of scientists who claim that the <br /> development of embryo has been completely known and has become an axiom <br /> in science. By this comparison we are to demonstrate how the philosophical <br /> views of an exegete affect his interpretation. In addition as some subjects are <br /> abstract and the exegete neglect the basics of science, his scientific status can <br /> be fully questioned. This problem is clearly seen in Sadras's interpretation of <br /> the sura "Tareq” and less seen in that of Razi as he is much more concerned <br /> about science. |
