Particle physicist Stephen M. Barr expresses this:

Science has taken us on just such an adventure. Armed not with weapons but with telescopes and par-
ticle accelerators, and speaking by the signs and symbols of recondite mathematics, it has brought us
to many strange shores and shown us alien and fantastic landscapes. But as we scan the horizon, near
the end of the voyage, we have begun to recognize first one and then another of the old familiar land-

marks and outlines of our ancestral home. The search for truth always leads us, in the end, back to

the universe. The works created show the existence of a sublime power, a

It is fruitless for materialists to struggle against this truth any longer,
because modern physics has produced results that argue totally against

them. In verses Allah has told us that:
