Lets be honest with ourselves here. At the risk of sounding blasphemous,** one as to admit that we really have no genuine evidence to support Islam or any other religion. That we trust the Koran is a because we choose to believe that its a valid source… Have you ever seen a miracle? Have you ever seen God? Can you prove to me with what you consider to be proof, that there is a God, and that Islam is his choosen faith?** This is what I mean by intelectual dishonesty. There is nothing wrong with believing for the sake of believing, but claiming that there is evidence to support your faith, is completely dishonest. I know we al wish for irrefutable evidence for our faith, but it does not exist.

Technically speaking, nobody can prove that there isn’t a God. And there are some things stated in the Quran which in that era (1400 years ago) could only be provided by miraculous events, such as the detailed development of embryology, electricity, nuclear particles/atomic theory, etc. This stuff wasn’t “scientifically” discovered until the past couple of centuries.

*"It has been a great pleasure for me to help clarify statements in the Quran about human development. It is clear to me that these statements must have come to Muhammad from God, or Allah, because most of this knowledge was not discovered until many centuries later. This proves to me that Muhammad must have been a messenger of God or Allah".*
