Quran AND Science

There is something that must not escape attention, however: the

perception of time is achieved by the intellect. Since according to our

estimation, just as the special relativity theory establishes that velocity

makes time relative and the general relativity theory postulates that

gravity makes time relative, one should elaborate on “the intellect’s

relativity” which posits that the intellect’s perception manner would

render the relative perception of time. Like a key that fits the lock, our

intellect also has the capacity of perceiving time and the universe. That

is (1) time exists in the universe, (2) and the intellect is created with

a priori abilities to perceive time and the universe. The two processes

are coexistent, just like the coexistence of the world seen by us and the

eyes.
