basedon

alive

debate

between

Dr.ZakirNaik(aphysician&ascholaronIslam)

&

Dr.WilliamCampbell(aphysician&ascholaronChristianity)

Dr.ZakirNaiksays:

First,wedealwithAstronomy.TheBiblespeaksabout thecreationof

theuniverse. In thebeginning,1stBook,BookofGenesis,1

stCh., it is

mentioned ItsaysAlmightyGodcreatedtheHeavensandtheEarth,

insix

days

and

talks

about

aevening

and

amorning,

referring

to

a24

hourday.Todayscientiststellus,thattheuniversecannotbecreatedin

a24hourperiodofsixdays.Qurantoospeaksaboutsixayyams.The

Arabicword singular isyaumplural isayyam. It can eithermean a

day of 24 hours, or it is a very long period, anyaum, an epoch.


3/16

Scientists saywehavenoobjection in agreeing that theuniverse it

couldhavebeencreatedin6verylongperiods.

PointNo.2

Bible

says

in

Genesis

Ch.

No.

1Verses

No.

3and

5,Light

was createdon the firstday.Genesis,Ch.,1Verses,14 to19 The

causeof light starsandthesun,etc.wascreatedonthefourthday.

How can the causeof lightbecreatedon the4th

day later than the

lightwhichcameintoexistenceonthefirstday? Itisunscientific.

Point No.3 Further, the,Biblesays Genesis, Ch. 1, Verses 9 to 13

Earthwascreatedon the3rd

day.Howcanyouhaveanightandday

without the earth? Theday depends upon the rotationof the Earth

Withouttheearthcreated,howcanyouhaveanightandday?

PointNo..4 Genesis,Ch.No.1Verses9to13saysEarthwascreated

onthethirdday. GenesisCh.No.1Verses14to19saysTheSunand

theMoonwere created on the fourth day. Today science tells us

Earth is part of the parent body the sun. It cannot come into

existencebeforethesunItisunscientific.

PointNo.

Bible

says

in

Genesis,

Ch.

No.1,

Verse

No.

to

13Thevegetation,theherbstheshrubs,thetrees theywerecreated

on the3rd

dayAnd theSun,Genesis,Ch.No.1,Verses.14 to19,was

created on the 4th

day.How can the vegetation come into existence

withoutsunlight,andhowcantheysurvivewithoutsunlight?


4/16

PointNo.6 TheBiblesays inGenesis,Ch.1,VersesNo.16, thatGod

created two lights thegreater light, theSun to rule theday,and the

lesserlighttheMoon,torulethenight.Theactualtranslation,ifyougo

totheHebrewtext, it is lampsLampshaving lightsof itsown.And

that you will come to know better, if you read both the Verses

Genesis, Ch. No.1, Verse. 16, aswell as 17. Verse No.17 saysAnd

AlmightyGodplacedtheminthefirmament,togivelighttotheearth

Togive light to theearth. Indicating, thatSunand theMoonhas its

own light which is in contradiction with established scientific

knowledge that we have. There are certain people who try and

reconciliate,andsaythatthesixdaysmentionedintheBible,itactually

referstoepocs liketheQuranlongperiods notsix,24hourday.Itis

illogical you read in theBible,evening,morning Itclearlystates24

hours,it

indicates.

But

even

ifIuse

tosolve the1stscientificerrorof6dayscreation,and second,of first

5/16

No.1and3, the remaining4areyet there. Ifyousay thedaysare24

becomes unscientific. I leave it toDr.William Campbell,whether he

wantstosayItislongperiod,andsaythatthereareonly4scientific

errors orsay It isa24hourday,andsay there isonly5scientific

errorsinthecreationoftheuniverse.

Point No. 7 Regardingthe concept of Earth, there are various

Scientistswho

have

described

How

will

the

world

end.

Hypothesis

Somemay be right, somemay bewrong. But either theworldwill

perish or the world will live forever. Both cannot take place

simultaneouslyItisunscientific.ButthisisexactlywhattheBiblesays.

It ismentioned in theBible, in thebookofHebrews,Ch.No.1Verses

No.10and11,andthebookofPsalms,Ch.No.102,VerseNo.25and26,

thatAlmightyGodcreated theHeavensand theEarth,and theywill

perish.Exactlyopposite ismentioned inthebookofEcclesiastics,Ch.

No.1, Verse No.4, and the book of Psalms, Ch. No.78, Verse No.69,

thatTheearthwillabideforever.IleaveittoDr.WilliamCampbellto

choosewhichof the twoVersesareunscientific the firstpairor the

secondpair.Onehas tobeunscientific Bothcannot takeplace.The

worldcannotabideforeveraswellasperishItisunscientific.

Point No. 8 Regardingthe Heavens, theBiblesays in Job, Ch. 26,

Verse11, thatThepillarsof theHeavenwill tremble.Quransays in


6/16

Surah Luqman, Ch. 31, VerseNo.10, thatThe Heavens arewithout

anypillars Don`tyousee?DontyouseetheHeavensarewithoutany

pillars? Biblesaysheavenhavegotpillars.

PointNo.9 NotonlydotheHeavenshavegotpillars Biblesaysinthe

firstbookofSamuel,Ch.No.2VersesNo.8,aswellasthebookofJob

Ch.No.9,VerseNo.6,and thebookofPsalmsCh.No.75,VerseNo.3,

thatEventheearthhavegotpillars.

Point No. 10 In the field ofDiet and Nutritionlets analyse,what

does theBiblesay. TheBiblesays in the book of Genesis, Ch. No.1,

VerseNo.29,thatGodhasgivenyoualltheherbsbearingseeds,the

trees bearing fruits those that bear seed, as meat for you. New

International Version says The seed bearing plants, and the trees

bearingfruits

bearing

seeds

are

food

for

you,

all

of

them.

Today,

even

a layman knows that there are severalpoisonous plantslike wild

berries,stritchi,datura,plantscontainingalkaloid,polyander,bacaipoid

thatwhichifyouingest,ifyoueattherearehighpossibilitiesyoumay

notknow,

that

ifyou

have

these

plants,

you

will

die.

Ihope

Dr.

William

Campbelldoesnotgivethesevegetariandiettohispatients.

Point No. 11 TheBiblehas a scientific test how to identify a true

believer.ItismentionedintheGospelof Mark,Ch.No.16,VerseNo.17

and18 ItsaysthatTherewillbesignsfortruebelieversandamong


7/16

the signs Inmy name they shall cast out devils, they shall speak

foreigntongues,newtongues, theyshalltakeupserpents Andifthey

drinkdeadlypoison, theyshallnotbeharmed Andwhen theyplace

theirhandoverthesick,theyshallbecured.Thisisascientifictest In

scientific terminology, it isknownas the confirmatorytest foratrue

Christian believer. In the past 10 years ofmy life, I have personally

interactedwiththousandsofChristians, includingmissionaries Ihave

not comeacrossa singleChristian,whohaspassed this confirmatory

testof theBible. Ihave not come across a singleChristianwho took

poison Ihavenotcomeacrossanywhotookpoison,andwhohasnot

hewilldie.Andafalsepersonwillnotdareattemptthistest Ifyouare

notatrue

Christian

believer,

you

will

not

dare

attempt

this

test.

Because you try and attempt the falsification test, youwill fail. So a

personwhoisnotatrueChristianbeliever,willneverattemptthistest.

I have read thebook TheQuranand theBiblein the light of history

andsciencewrittenbyDr.WilliamCampbell.AndIassume thatheis

atrue

Christian

believer,

and

at

least

Iwould

like

him

What

does

theBiblesay regarding Hydrology?Biblesays in Genesis, Ch. No.9,

VerseNo.13 to17, that AfterGod,at the timeofNoah submerged

theworldbyflood,andafterthefloodsubsided,HesaidIputupa

Mathematics

is

abranch,

which

is

closely

associated

with science, with which you can solve problems, etc. There are

thousands of contradictions in theBible hundreds deal with

mathematics,andIllfirsttouchonfewofthem.ItismentionedinEzra,

Ch.No.2,VerseNo.1,andNehemiah,Ch.No.7,VerseNo.6,thecontext

thatWhen

the

people

from

Babylon,

when

less than 18 contradictions in less than 60 Verses, of these two

Chapters. This is the list Idonthave time to run through the list

There are no less than 18 different contradictions in less than 60

Verses.

PointNo. 16 Further it ismentioned in Ezra, Ch.No.2VerseNo.64

thatThetotalcongregation,ifyouaddupifyouaddup,itcomesto

PointNo.17 Further, ifwe read, inEzraCh.No.2,VerseNo.65, it

saysTherewere200singingmenandwomen NehemiahCh.No.7,

VerseNo. 67Therewere 245 singingmen andwomen.Were they

200 orwerethey245singingmenandwomen?Contextisthesame

PointNo.18 It ismentioned inthe2nd

Kings,Ch.No24,VerseNo8,

thatJehoiachinwas18yearsold,whenhebegantoreignJerusalem,

andhe

and

10

days.

36,

VerseNo9, says thatJehoiachinwas8yearsoldwhenhebegan to

whenhebegantoreign,orwashe8yearsold?


13/16

PointNo.19 Didhereignfor3months,ordidhereignfor3months

PointNo.

20

Further,

it

is

mentioned

in

the

1st

Kings,

Ch.

No

7,

Verse

No 26, thatIn Solomons temple, in his molten sea, he had 2000

baths. In2nd

Chronicles,Ch.No4,VerseNo5,hehad3000baths.Did

hehave2000bathsordidhehave3000baths?That,I leave itupon

Dr.William Campbell to decidewhich is correct. There is a clearcut

mathematicalcontradiction.

PointNo.21 Furthermore. it ismentioned intheFirstKings,Ch.No.

15,VerseNo.33,thatBasha,hediedinthe26th

yearofreignofAsa.

And 2nd

Chronicles Ch.No 16, VerseNo 1, says thatBasha invaded

Judah in the36th

yearsof thereignofAsa.HowcanBasha invade10

yearsafter

his

death?

It

is

unscientific.
