The same holds true for the understanding of Islam, as there are apparent meanings of the Quran as well as hidden meanings that are not immediately understood (exoteric and esoteric). However, the most important aspect of any advancement, either in Islam or science, is to make the world a better place to live in, not only for now but also for the generations to come.

That is to strive for the lasting peace and harmony of mankind, as scientific tools and its knowledge are used for both good causes as well as manipulation of the vulnerable and of destruction of life and habitats.\u00a0 In Islam, Muslims have not fully benefited from the teaching of Quran either, i.e., by implementing its laws in entirety and coming up with inspirational society.\u00a0 Will the world ever see the lasting peace and harmony?

Yes, Islam is waiting for the \u2018Saviour\u2019 (Mehdi), the 12 th successor of the Prophet, who will be assisted by Prophet Jesus (Resent by God), to revise peace and harmony after the tyranny and inequity.\u00a0 The world will become a beautiful and enjoyable place for all living species.

\u00a0As Islam goes further than science in forgiving and observing patience, i.e., Islam says: \u2018 No two parties ever met (in a confrontation) at all, except victory was for the one who was greater of the two in pardoning\u2019 .

[8] \n Introduction: \n Followers of Islam or any religion are not to be alienated from the inventions of science, as they have and are contributing to scientific discoveries and are to be considered as partners in welfare of our planet and its inhabitants through knowledge emanating from both science and religion.

\n The Role of Science in Islam: \n There are many benefits which science has brought to mankind, including facilitating the acts of worship in Islam, i.e., determining the sunset, sunrise, moonsighting as well as numerous health diagnostic, treatment and operation procedures. God encourages one to seek the assistance of a physician, e.g., in a narration from the 6 th successor of the Prophet (c.\u2009702\u2013765 CE) [9] : \u2018 A Prophet from the Prophets (of God) fell sick.

He said: \u2018I will not take the medication until the One Who Made me sick, He is the One Who Heals me\u2019. God Revealed to him: \u201cI will not Heal you until you take the medication.
