Having Faith* in Science

We have faith in Allah, in the Qu’ran Allah commands mankind to reflect upon the creation of the heavens and the earth. At Feversham we recognise and promote strong links between Islam and science.

Feversham College has a reputation for academic excellence, consistently achieving valued added scores, which place it in the top 5% of schools in the country.

The college was awarded Specialist Science Status in September 2007, enabling us to raise aspirations further and extend the opportunities for young Muslim women to contribute to the scientific tradition in modern Britain.

Students are given opportunity to compare these with the ideas in modern scientific theory and recognise the contributions Muslim scientists have made over the years. Verses in the Qu’ran describe origins of the universe and life; embryonic development; the water cycle and Geology.

“…the heavens and Earth were of one piece, we parted them and, we made every living thing
of water…” Qu’ran 21:30

“…the heavens we have built with power and are expanding it …” Qu’ran 51:47

Al-Nawwas bin Sam’an reported that the Prophet (Peace be upon him) said: “Righteousness
is good character, and sin is that which wavers in your heart and which you do not want people
to know about.” [Muslim]

*Faith in this context does not mean Imaan
