Over the last decades, there has been a trend to study the numerical relationship in the Noble Qur'an. The scholars studying this area called it "The science of numerical miracle of the Holy Qur'an". However, many of the research efforts and its subsequent results of this subject seem to have some elements of affectation and arbitrariness. Hence, other authors took the opposite direction and denied such numerical relationships in the Noble Qur'an. They consider what has been reliably reported in this area by ancestors and prominent Interpreters as subtleties and tips, outside the scientific core. In view of this dispute, I wrote this paper with the title: "The numerical miracle in balance". In this study, I elaborated on the definition of the concept of the numerical miracle, how it was developed and the evidence of its supporters. Then, I had assessed and worked out all arguments around the matter. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

After Darwin's theory of evolution, evolutionists met Stanley Miller's experiment eagerly in their periods and began to advocate the view of life can emerge spontaneously with vigor. Overview of this theory is based on the idea that all the living things of life on Earth was founded and developed by chance and descended from a common ancestor. It has been proposed that especially human came in possession of this present manner by evolving from a creature known as Primat Ape. This opinion seems to be adopted bysome Muslim researchers, today. In this paper, we will focus on evolutionists' misconceptions and the fact that human is not originated from a primitive creature, but came into exzistence as a unique entity and created from soil.

This article explores the "make-up prayer" as it is referred to in the Qur'an and the Sunnah, the two cardinal sources of İslâm, laying down the varying perspectives of scholars of Qur'anic exegesis (tafsir), the Prophetic tradition (hadith), and jurists. It has been noted that there is a consensus among scholars that make-up is necessary for the prayers that have been omitted because of sleep or forgetfulness. With the exception of Dawud al-Zahiri, Ibn Hazm, and Ibn Taymiyya, there is also consensus on the necessity of make-up for intentionally omitted prayers. This paper emphasizes the fact that those who argue in favor of no make-up for intentionally omitted prayers actually recognizes the make-up prayer as viable when they instead advise a more difficult option with plenty of voluntary prayers and good work.

The aim of narratology which is continuation of French structuralists and Russian formalists is to analyze the text synchronically in accordance with its autonomy.

This paper tries to present essential characters of narratology, and discusses how narratology can be helpful in the understanding of the Qur'an. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
