When We Had Religion, We Also Had Science

Shaykh Yasir Qadhi delves into the supremacy and wholeness of our beautiful religion - Islam. The very first revelation was Iqra. The purpose of the first revelation was that Allah wanted to give Prophet Muhammad ﷺ the knowledge that will be sent from Allah in the times to come. The first Iqra is a reference to the Islamic sciences linked to Allah and the Second Iqra that comes in the Surah is a reference to the derived sciences that we derive. We are the only religion in the world that when we reached the pinnacle of religiosity, we also had the knowledge of Science. Hence, Allah has told us to first learn the knowledge of religion and then learn the knowledge of the world.
