The companions of Prophet Muhammad, who were great people, played an important role in the compilation of the Quran, leaving an interesting story behind.

During the time of Caliph Abu Bakr, when 70 people who knew the Quran by heart qari , were killed in the Battle of Yamama, Umar ibn al-Khattab became concerned and appealed to Abu Bakr in order to compile the Quran into a book. Abu Bakr formed a delegation under the leadership of Zaid ibn Thabit, one of the leading scribes.

Muslim scholars have developed a spectrum of viewpoints on science within the context of Islam. Scientists of medieval Muslim civilization e. Ibn al-Haytham contributed to the new discoveries of science. Some Muslim writers have claimed that the Quran made prescient statements about scientific phenomena that were later confirmed by scientific research for instance as regards to the structure of the embryo, our solar system, and the creation of the universe. Science is often defined as the pursuit of knowledge and understanding of the natural and social world following a systematic methodology based on evidence. Scientists maintain that scientific investigation needs to adhere to the scientific method , a process for evaluating empirical knowledge that explains observable events without recourse to supernatural notions.
