Celebrated Scientists: Ancients and the Moderns
Excellence in the progress of any field depends upon the strength of the past. Present Muslims may not know about the incredible vision and work of the great scientists from among their ancestors, who simultaneously explored the sciences of the Noble Quran and the sciences of the Universe. These Scientists’ spiritual endeavors increased their desire to conduct profound research into God's creation.
Most surely in the creation of the heavens and the earth and in the alternation of night and day, there are signs for those who possess intellects. (Quran 3:190)On the earth are signs for those of assured faith, as also in your own self: will you not then see? (Quran 51:20,21)
This deepened their recognition of the Creator and His Creation. Such knowledge of the rich science legacy can awaken the desire for distinction, especially among those pursuing studies in science. Display of the Art-Prints of Ancient scientists is to let today’s students know that they were pioneers in their own times and through their efforts they made today’s Science possible.
Science-Scientists Visuals presents the reproduction of paintings of 20 Ancient and 30 Modern Scientists as a list and gallery in chronological order. Included with the legacy of Ancient Muslim scientists are other scientists from different periods and regions of the world. They are shown in action against the background of their discoveries and inventions. These art prints are unique, inspirational, and the first of their kind ever published. They provide a complete overview of the History of Science and a comprehensive “Gallery of Scientists”.
