As I think is quite up-market,I wonder if there is a cheaper option for budget backpackers.

Or would you have to go into Bangkok itself? Any idea how much it costs? Any links would be great. Thanks

Where can I buy a Thai Bible in BangYai, Bangkok? If possible, please let me know some good christian bookstores in Bangkok.
If possible also, let me know which is the nearest to my place, Bangyai.
Thank you.

Here is the message he sent to me and I felt like the whole thing is he still love her and he back to me coz she was not honest with him . I dont feel like he see my value .Should I still give him a chance or just let it go : Ok read this message he sent to me :
I miss you too. I wanted to see you today but I called and msg you and can never get a hold of you Now it is 8:30pm and too late. I miss you kiss and holding. You always make me feel so good. I never been in a relationship where after so much time I still get so happy when I see you I feel closer to you than anytime in our relationship before.
I read your whole message and had a bit of a time understanding it boo I remember a lot about our relationship from the beginning. If you had come to Ali’s bday last year and I was with my ex I am sure we would not be dating now. I would see you as a really cute girl but not try to meet you. I probably could not help but to stare at you because you so cute I remember getting home that night too. Me and my ex got into a fight and ultimately I ended up destroying two lamps and punching a hole in my back bedroom door. My ex brought out the worst in me. I think back to it and I don’t know why I would keep coming back to her. We had a crazy and unstable relationship. I think the only thing that held us together was what I thought was her undying and true love for me. I thought that even if I went to jail she would wait for me because she loved and desired me so much. I just had a hard time letting go of someone who loved me so much. Part of me thought that one day her and I would get married and I was just confused cause I was still attracted to other girls and not sure of her and one day I would change. She used me a lot and I did not even know it. I knew that when her and I were together it was crazy emotional. Sometimes it was really good and sometimes it made me so angry I could not stand it. I don’t want to be with someone that brings out my demons. That is why deep down I could never commit to her. It is so hard for me to describe how she made me so crazy but she had an incredible skill for making me feel guilty, her look innocent, and that I was the one always doing bad things to her but she was still with me. I now know that was just her manipulation. Now that I know her lies.. that I know everything about her I could finally close my heart to her and move on. She could not manipulate my emotions anymore.
I was so happy when I first met you. You acted spicy to me a lot but I just felt so proud a cute young asian girl wanted to spend time with me. I knew you were a good girl and I was hoping that your spiciness was just an act to make sure that a guy really liked you. I was willing to be patient to find out more. We had some great times and your expectations of me were lopsided. I always felt like you expected so much from me and never appreciated what I gave. Actually the first time we broke up it was because of you and I was ok letting it go because of what happened. My ex and I would still talk from time to time but not that much. Then you and I got back together. That was when my ex was being the most understanding with me. I was still not sure about her. I was never sure about her. I did not know what I wanted. I had 2 weeks vacation and nowhere to go and she convinced me I should come to Thailand. I thought about it and thought it would be fun to go back and I can find out this last time if things with my ex would be crazy or not. I broke up with you and bought my tickets. I sitll had lots of doubts though. The more and more I thought about it the more I had doubts. That night in the club when I saw you with Ken I got jealous because I saw you show interest in another guy. At least it looked like it. I tried not to show it but all I did was walk around drinking. I did not even have a desire to flirt with another girl. I was just casually observing you. I saw Ali looked so pissed off mad at me.
I remember seeing you on the couch and you looked so drunk. I went to the bar, got you some water, and came back and gave it to you and walked away. I just wanted to make sure you were ok. Then by some weird chance i was standing there when you walked by and almost fell to the floor but it was right in front of me. I grabbed you and sat you down. We talked both a bit drunk and you promised you would have sex with me on my birthday hehe. I still remember that. I knew then that you were the girl I wanted to try with. I knew seeing my ex was not going to make things any better. I knew her and I would fight and I had a great girl here and that I should work on it. I canceled my tickets and wanted to try with you. I told my ex and it was a very dramatic very emotional thing to deal with. She made me feel absolutely terrible.. feel guilty. I even lost $500 canceling the tickets which suck. I also spent my 2 weeks of vacation at home alone most of the day. I was depressed a lot. I really wanted to be in a warm climate.
I admit I was not over her 100%. Every once in awhile I would see her online and we would talk. She convinced me to send her jacket back to her. I did not want to but finally she pestered me to death. I sent it at a cost of $70 which kind of sucked. I spent those months though feeling closer to you though. My ex keep asking me if I would maybe marry her someday. She would wait for me. She loved me.. blah blah blah. She kept holding me in her mind and I was not fully letting go. Then a few months ago something strange happened. I got a password reset request from her email. I clicked on it and it took me into her email account. I was not trying to get in but there I was. I never once caught her in a lie but I always suspected her. I found out that most of everything she had told me was a lie. She even had a bf the whole time she begged me to come see her. She was still with him when asking me to marry her. She lied to me about some things early in our relationship even before we met.. things she did not have to lie about. All of a sudden the girl I thought I was in love with never really existed. Everything about her felt like a lie. I ended up talking to a long time guy friend on her messenger and he told me a lot of things about her too. It was weird. I could not believe that. I felt stupid that once again I was fooled by a girl. I confronted her about everything and she finally admitted to most of the lies but kept lying even when I already knew the truth. It was pervasive. All of a sudden her word meant nothing and I realized that I was not letting go of something that did not really exist. I was already in love with you when this happened but I could not give myself fully to you. I am still trying to give myself fully to you but my past bad luck makes me very cautious. My ex and I said our goodbyes several months ago and in my mind it really is over. There is no more going back. She knows it too and she has not even tried to contact me. She is my past and you are my future.
I really do adore spending time with you. I look at our pictures and think I am very lucky to have met you. You are so much sweeter to me than when we first met. I really want to keep trying with you and see where our relationship can go. I will leave it up to fate and see what fate brings me but what I do know is that I am happy when I am with you.

I can find flights to Bangkok no problem, but I wanna know how much / how often flights to Krabi are from there.

Muay Thai, Kickboxing, Boxing, a girl has to let out stress somehow ..

Everything you need to know about applying for a tourist visa for Australia is on the official government immigration department website:http://www.immi.gov.au/visitors/tourist/…
You must lodge Form 48R with the nominated service provider in Thailand:http://www.immi.gov.au/allforms/pdf/48r.…
The department has an agreement with VFS (Thailand) Ltd to provide Australian visa lodgement services in Thailand through the AVAC. The AVAC accepts applications for Australian visas.http://www.immi.gov.au/contacts/overseas…

I am 13 and a girl. I haven’t done a lot of sports in the past, just a few recent swimming stints. But I want to start kickboxing or Muay Thai. How can I tell if its the right sport for me? Thanks.

Stuff like crab salad and things I could take to school and eat for lunch.

can anybody tell me the documents required in getting a thai tourist visa in philippines? i would like to invite my friend to come and visit me here in bangkok and stay here for a couple of months. i am a filipino and my friend also is a filipino. thank you very much.

3 meals of food is 100 baht/day
Cheap guesthouse/backpacker style is 250 baht/night.
in all 350 baht a day x 10 days = 3500baht which is total 95$ for 10 days.
Can it be cheaper? Yes it can - Laos is even cheaper.
travel with non-air con bus is so cheap.
But you have to be strong to live this way.

Tiger Woods snubbed his fans at the Bangkok Airport when he landed there. There were banners, orchestras, literally thousands of people there to greet him, including government officials. He just walked by and ignored everyone. His mother is half-Thai, making him 50% Thai. He is a real jerk who disappointed lots of people in Thailand. Perhaps he doesn’t respect women at all. You can tell a lot about the character of a man by how he treats his mother. There are reports that he treats his mother like crap and hate Thai people — thus hating himself.
Does anyone have other examples of his rudeness; Arrogance? It is easy to see why he treated his wife and family like crap. His heart is the size of a golf ball.

Hello, I am planning to buy a condo from these Developers in Thailand, called Iguana Group. They are developing a project in Pattaya called Park Lane.
Did anyone hear of them before? Are they good or bad, as far as their reputation for development of properties is concerned? Any more information about them?
Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.

is it safe to travel alone there

My boyfriend and I will be travelling to bangkok, thailand for a vacation and we wanted to know if there is a place there like we can visit that can do or perform wedding ceremonies …something like las vegas… no paper work…just a blessing or something. Our real church wedding will be late next year…but we wanted to make our vacation really memorable…Pls help. Thank you

My trip is finally pushing through next week and i’m really excited. If you can provide me with the amount and in which currency it’s accepted, i’d appreciate it so that i can prepare the money in advance and have it tucked away under my ‘travel money’ stash

I am 27 and my wife is 23. We have a 11 month old baby daughter. My wife is from Thailand and we have been married for 2 years.
We never seem to have much money, what with all our debts and outgoings, and we are living with my parents because we can’t afford a place of our own.
She seems to be my best friend come pay day and I’ve had a few unautherised overdraft charges because of her. She doesn’t listen when I say I can’t afford something.
Money isn’t really the issue for me. My wife (or so she says) loves me and I love her (sometimes) and my daughter is lovely.
BUT! I am unhappy. She just controls me all the time in everything I do. And if I don’t do things her way I am subjected to her moods and shouting. Even playing a game on the PC after work has been banned and I have been given a “weekends only” rule.
I don’t really have any hobbies other than PC gaming now and again, and I would let her do what she wanted; go to her friends, shopping, etc. So I don’t understand why it’s a different rule for me.
She usually threatens to run away with my daughter, just because I was on the computer with my friends from work (in my spare time!). She says I care games more than her and our daughter, but that’s not true. A couple of times I had to chase her down the street to bring them back. And then sometimes she says she wants to go back to Thailand. …And sometimes I think to myself I’d be happier if she did. I hate fighting with anyone, so me being me, I just keep quiet and put up with it.
I don’t do anything wrong. I spend time with my wife and baby all the time. And the time I do get to myself seems to be a problem to her.
We went for a night out together for a few drinks and I met an old “crush” I had at school. We sort of dated when we were kids. She had a little boy now and was a single mother and seemed happy to see me. I know it sounds cruel, but I wished I was actually with her.
I don’t know what to do. Sometimes it’s great with my wife. We do what any normal married couples do. Go for meals, pubs, clubs, rent DVD’s etc. But all her nagging, controlling and spending is getting me down. I tried talking to her but she says, “That’s me, and if you not like, don’t be with me then.”
It’s a difficult situation because if we split up she would have to back to Thailand and our daughter will be left without a mother because my daughter was born in the UK. But if we stay together, it’s just going to niggle away at me all the time…
I just don’t know what to do….I’m at my witts end.

Leaving in April

it doesn’t exist

We are moving us and our cat to Thailand from the UK. Is any quarantine required or do we need any vets certificates? Anyone with any similar experiences or better at searching the net than me?

Will be there 5 days. Too expensive for us to fly somewhere else out of Bangkok.

This is interesting.
After reading this, you’ll never look at a banana in the same way again.
Bananas contain three natural sugars - sucrose, fructose and glucose combined with fiber. A banana gives an instant, sustained and substantial boost of energy
Research has proven that just two bananas provide enough energy for a strenuous 90-minute workout No wonder the banana is the number one fruit with the world’s leading athletes.
But energy isn’t the only way a banana can help us keep fit. It can also help overcome or prevent a substantial number of illnesses and conditions, making it a must to add to our daily diet.
DEPRESSION: According to a recent survey undertaken by MIND amongst people suffering from depression, many felt much better after eating a banana. This is because bananas contain tryptophan, a type of protein that the body converts into serotonin, known to make you relax, improve your mood and generally make you feel happier.
PMS: Forget the pills - eat a banana. The vitamin B6 it contains regulates blood glucose levels, which can affect your mood.
ANEMIA: High in iron, bananas can stimulate the production of hemoglobin in the blood and so helps in cases of anemia.
BLOOD PRESSURE: This unique tropical fruit is extremely high in potassium yet low in salt, making it perfect to beat blood pressure. So much so, the US Food and Drug Administration has just allowed the banana industry to make official claims for the fruit’s ability to reduce the risk of blood pressure and stroke.
BRAIN POWER: 200 students at a Twickenham (Middlesex) school ( England ) were helped through their exams this year by eating bananas at breakfast, break, and lunch in a bid to boost their brain power.. Research has shown that the potassium-packed fruit can assist learning by making pupils more alert.
CONSTIPATION: High in fiber, including bananas in the diet can help restore normal bowel action, helping to overcome the problem without resorting to laxatives.
HANGOVERS: One of the quickest ways of curing a hangover is to make a banana milkshake, sweetened with honey. The banana calms the stomach and, with the help of the honey, builds up depleted blood sugar levels, while the milk soothes and re-hydrates your system.
HEARTBURN: Bananas have a natural antacid effect in the body, so if you suffer from heartburn, try eating a banana for soothing relief.
MORNING SICKNESS: Snacking on bananas between meals helps to keep blood sugar levels up and avoid morning sickness.
MOSQUITO BITE: Before reaching for the insect bite cream, try rubbing the affected area with the inside of a banana skin. Many people find it amazingly successful at reducing swelling and irritation.
NERVES: Bananas are high in B vitamins that help calm the nervous system.
Overweight and at work? Studies at the Institute of Psychology in Austria found pressure at work leads to gorging on comfort food like chocolate and chips. Looking at 5,000 hospital patients, researchers found the most obese were more likely to be in high-pressure jobs. The report concluded that, to avoid panic-induced food cravings, we need to control our blood sugar levels by snacking on high carbohydrate foods every two hours to keep levels steady.
ULCERS: The banana is used as the dietary food against intestinal disorders because of its soft texture and smoothness. It is the only raw fruit that can be eaten without distress in over-chronicler cases. It also neutralizes over-acidity and reduces irritation by coating the lining of the stomach.
TEMPERATURE CONTROL: Many other cultures see bananas as a ‘cooling’ fruit that can lower both the physical and emotional temperature of expectant mothers. In Thailand , for example, pregnant women eat bananas to ensure their baby is born with a cool temperature.
SEASONAL AFFECTIVE DISORDER (SAD): Bananas can help SAD sufferers because they contain the natural mood enhancer tryptophan.
SMOKING AND TOBACCO USE: Bananas can also help people trying to give up smoking. The B6, B12 they contain, as well as the potassium and magnesium found in them, help the body recover from the effects of nicotine withdrawal.
STRESS: Potassium is a vital mineral, which helps normalize the heartbeat, sends oxygen to the brain and regulates your body’s water balance. When we are stressed, our metabolic rate rises, thereby reducing our potassium levels. These can be rebalanced with the help of a high-potassium banana snack.
STROKES: According to research in The New England Journal of Medicine, eating bananas as part of a regular diet can cut the risk of death by strokes by as much as 40%!
WARTS: Those keen on natural alternatives swear that if you want to kill off a wart, take a piece of banana skin and place it on the wart, with the yellow side out. Carefully hold the skin in place with a plaster or surgical tape!
So, a banana really is a natural remedy for many ills. When you compare it to an apple, it has four

1) Dr. T. V. N. Persaud is Professor of Anatomy, Professor of Pediatrics and Child Health, and Professor of Obstetrics, Gynecology, and Reproductive Sciences at the University of Manitoba, Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. There, he was the Chairman of the Department of Anatomy for 16 years. He is well-known in his field. He is the author or editor of 22 textbooks and has published over 181 scientific papers. In 1991, he received the most distinguished award presented in the field of anatomy in Canada, the J.C.B. Grant Award from the Canadian Association of Anatomists. When he was asked about the scientific miracles in the Quran which he has researched, he stated the following:
“The way it was explained to me is that Muhammad was a very ordinary man. He could not read, didn’t know [how] to write. In fact, he was an illiterate. And we’re talking about twelve [actually about fourteen] hundred years ago. You have someone illiterate making profound pronouncements and statements and that are amazingly accurate about scientific nature. And I personally can’t see how this could be a mere chance. There are too many accuracies and, like Dr. Moore, I have no difficulty in my mind that this is a divine inspiration or revelation which led him to these statements.” (View the RealPlayer video of this comment )
Professor Persaud has included some Quranic verses and sayings of the Prophet Muhammad in some of his books. He has also presented these verses and sayings of the Prophet Muhammad at several conferences.
2) Dr. Joe Leigh Simpson is the Chairman of the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Professor of Obstetrics and Gynecology, and Professor of Molecular and Human Genetics at the Baylor College of Medicine, Houston, Texas, USA. Formerly, he was Professor of Ob-Gyn and the Chairman of the Department of Ob-Gyn at the University of Tennessee, Memphis, Tennessee, USA. He was also the President of the American Fertility Society. He has received many awards, including the Association of Professors of Obstetrics and Gynecology Public Recognition Award in 1992. Professor Simpson studied the following two sayings of the Prophet Muhammad :
{In every one of you, all components of your creation are collected together in your mother’s womb by forty days…}
{If forty-two nights have passed over the embryo, God sends an angel to it, who shapes it and creates its hearing, vision, skin, flesh, and bones….}
He studied these two sayings of the Prophet Muhammad extensively, noting that the first forty days constitute a clearly distinguishable stage of embryo-genesis. He was particularly impressed by the absolute precision and accuracy of those sayings of the Prophet Muhammad . Then, during one conference, he gave the following opinion:
“So that the two hadeeths (the sayings of the Prophet Muhammad ) that have been noted provide us with a specific time table for the main embryological development before forty days. Again, the point has been made, I think, repeatedly by other speakers this morning: these hadeeths could not have been obtained on the basis of the scientific knowledge that was available [at] the time of their writing . . . . It follows, I think, that not only there is no conflict between genetics and religion but, in fact, religion can guide science by adding revelation to some of the traditional scientific approaches, that there exist statements in the Quran shown centuries later to be valid, which support knowledge in the Quran having been derived from God.” http://www.islam-guide.com/video/simpson…

There, for 22 years he was Professor of Anatomy, the Chairman of the Department of Anatomy, and the Director of the Daniel Baugh Institute. He was also the President of the Teratology Society. He has authored more than 200 publications. In 1981, during the Seventh Medical Conference in Dammam, Saudi Arabia, Professor Johnson said in the presentation of his research paper:
“Summary: The Quran describes not only the development of external form, but emphasizes also the internal stages, the stages inside the embryo, of its creation and development, emphasizing major events recognized by contemporary science.” http://www.islam-guide.com/video/johnson…
Also he said: “As a scientist, I can only deal with things which I can specifically see. I can understand embryology and developmental biology. I can understand the words that are translated to me from the Quran. As I gave the example before, if I were to transpose myself into that era, knowing what I knew today and describing things, I could not describe the things which were described. I see no evidence for the fact to refute the concept that this individual, Muhammad, had to be developing this information from some place. So I see nothing here in conflict with the concept that divine intervention was involved in what he was able to write.”http://www.islam-guide.com/video/johnson…

He was formerly the Dean of the Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Science at the University of Miami, Miami, Florida, USA. After a discussion with Professor Hay about the Quran’s mention of recently discovered facts on seas, he said:
“I find it very interesting that this sort of information is in the ancient scriptures of the Holy Quran, and I have no way of knowing where they would come from, but I think it is extremely interesting that they are there and that this work is going on to discover it, the meaning of some of the passages.” And when he was asked about the source of the Quran, he replied: “Well, I would think it must be the divine being.”http://www.islam-guide.com/video/hay-1.r…

During the Eighth Saudi Medical Conference in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, Professor Goeringer stated the following in the presentation of his research paper:
“In a relatively few aayahs (Quranic verses) is contained a rather comprehensive description of human development from the time of commingling of the gametes through organogenesis. No such distinct and complete record of human development, such as classification, terminology, and description, existed previously. In most, if not all, instances, this description antedates by many centuries the recording of the various stages of human embryonic and fetal development recorded in the traditional scientific literature.” http://www.islam-guide.com/video/goering…
) Dr. Yoshihide Kozai is Professor Emeritus at Tokyo University, Hongo, Tokyo, Japan, and was the Director of the National Astronomical Observatory, Mitaka, Tokyo, Japan. He said:
“I am very much impressed by finding true astronomical facts in [the] Quran, and for us the modern astronomers have been studying very small pieces of the universe. We’ve concentrated our efforts for understanding of [a] very small part. Because by using telescopes, we can see only very few parts [of] the sky without thinking [about the] whole universe. So, by reading [the] Quran and by answering to the questions, I think I can find my future way for investigation of the universe.” http://www.islam-guide.com/video/kozai-1…
7) Professor Tejatat Tejasen is the Chairman of the Department of Anatomy at Chiang Mai University, Chiang Mai, Thailand. Previously, he was the Dean of the Faculty of Medicine at the same university. During the Eighth Saudi Medical Conference in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, Professor Tejasen stood up and said:
“During the last three years, I became interested in the Quran . . . . From my study and what I have learned from this conference, I believe that everything that has been recorded in the Quran fourteen hundred years ago must be the truth, that can be proved by the scientific means. Since the Prophet Muhammad could neither read nor write, Muhammad must be a messenger who relayed this truth, which was revealed to him as an enlightenment by the one who is eligible [as the] creator. This creator must be God. Therefore, I think this is the time to say La ilaha illa Allah, there is no god to worship except Allah (God), Muhammadur rasoolu Allah, Muhammad is Messenger (Prophet) of Allah (God). Lastly, I must congratulate for the excellent and highly successful arrangement for this conference . . . . I have gained not only from the scientific point of view and religious point of view but also the great chance of meeting many well-known scientists and making many new friends among the participants. The most precious thing of all that I have gained by coming to this place is La ilaha illa Allah, Muhammadur rasoolu Allah, and to have become a Muslim.”http://www.islam-guide.com/video/tejasen…
After all these examples we have seen about the scientific miracles in the Holy Quran and all these scientists’ comments on this, let us ask ourselves these questions:
n Could it be a coincidence that all this recently discovered scientific information from different fields was mentioned in the Quran, which was revealed fourteen centuries ago?
n Could this Quran have been authored by Muhammad or by any other human being?
The only possible answer is that this Quran must be the literal word of God, revealed by Him.

“I am very much impressed by finding true astronomical facts in [the] Quran, and for us the modern astronomers have been studying very small pieces of the universe. We’ve concentrated our efforts for understanding of [a] very small part. Because by using telescopes, we can see only very few parts [of] the sky without thinking [about the] whole universe. So, by reading [the] Quran and by answering to the questions, I think I can find my future way for investigation of the universe.” http://www.islam-guide.com/video/kozai-1…
7) Professor Tejatat Tejasen is the Chairman of the Department of Anatomy at Chiang Mai University, Chiang Mai, Thailand. Previously, he was the Dean of the Faculty of Medicine at the same university. During the Eighth Saudi Medical Conference in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, Professor Tejasen stood up and said:
“During the last three years, I became interested in the Quran . . . . From my study and what I have learned from this conference, I believe that everything that has been recorded in the Quran fourteen hundred years ago must be the truth, that can be proved by the scientific means. Since the Prophet Muhammad could neither read nor write, Muhammad must be a messenger who relayed this truth, which was revealed to him as an enlightenment by the one who is eligible [as the] creator. This creator must be God. Therefore, I think this is the time to say La ilaha illa Allah, there is no god to worship except Allah (God), Muhammadur rasoolu Allah, Muhammad is Messenger (Prophet) of Allah (God). Lastly, I must congratulate for the excellent and highly successful arrangement for this conference . . . . I have gained not only from the scientific point of view and religious point of view but also the great chance of meeting many well-known scientists and making many new friends among the participants. The most precious thing of all that I have gained by coming to this place is La ilaha illa Allah, Muhammadur rasoolu Allah, and to have become a Muslim.”http://www.islam-guide.com/video/tejasen…
After all these examples we have seen about the scientific miracles in the Holy Quran and all these scientists’ comments on this, let us ask ourselves these questions:
n Could it be a coincidence that all this recently discovered scientific information from different fields was mentioned in the Quran, which was revealed fourteen centuries ago?
n Could this Quran have been authored by Muhammad or by any other human being?
The only possible answer is that this Quran must be the literal word of God, revealed by Him.

1) Dr. T. V. N. Persaud is Professor of Anatomy, Professor of Pediatrics and Child Health, and Professor of Obstetrics, Gynecology, and Reproductive Sciences at the University of Manitoba, Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. There, he was the Chairman of the Department of Anatomy for 16 years. He is well-known in his field. He is the author or editor of 22 textbooks and has published over 181 scientific papers. In 1991, he received the most distinguished award presented in the field of anatomy in Canada, the J.C.B. Grant Award from the Canadian Association of Anatomists. When he was asked about the scientific miracles in the Quran which he has researched, he stated the following:
“The way it was explained to me is that Muhammad was a very ordinary man. He could not read, didn’t know [how] to write. In fact, he was an illiterate. And we’re talking about twelve [actually about fourteen] hundred years ago. You have someone illiterate making profound pronouncements and statements and that are amazingly accurate about scientific nature. And I personally can’t see how this could be a mere chance. There are too many accuracies and, like Dr. Moore, I have no difficulty in my mind that this is a divine inspiration or revelation which led him to these statements.” (View the RealPlayer video of this comment )
Professor Persaud has included some Quranic verses and sayings of the Prophet Muhammad in some of his books. He has also presented these verses and sayings of the Prophet Muhammad at several conferences.
2) Dr. Joe Leigh Simpson is the Chairman of the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Professor of Obstetrics and Gynecology, and Professor of Molecular and Human Genetics at the Baylor College of Medicine, Houston, Texas, USA. Formerly, he was Professor of Ob-Gyn and the Chairman of the Department of Ob-Gyn at the University of Tennessee, Memphis, Tennessee, USA. He was also the President of the American Fertility Society. He has received many awards, including the Association of Professors of Obstetrics and Gynecology Public Recognition Award in 1992. Professor Simpson studied the following two sayings of the Prophet Muhammad :
{In every one of you, all components of your creation are collected together in your mother’s womb by forty days…}
{If forty-two nights have passed over the embryo, God sends an angel to it, who shapes it and creates its hearing, vision, skin, flesh, and bones….}
He studied these two sayings of the Prophet Muhammad extensively, noting that the first forty days constitute a clearly distinguishable stage of embryo-genesis. He was particularly impressed by the absolute precision and accuracy of those sayings of the Prophet Muhammad . Then, during one conference, he gave the following opinion:
“So that the two hadeeths (the sayings of the Prophet Muhammad ) that have been noted provide us with a specific time table for the main embryological development before forty days. Again, the point has been made, I think, repeatedly by other speakers this morning: these hadeeths could not have been obtained on the basis of the scientific knowledge that was available [at] the time of their writing . . . . It follows, I think, that not only there is no conflict between genetics and religion but, in fact, religion can guide science by adding revelation to some of the traditional scientific approaches, that there exist statements in the Quran shown centuries later to be valid, which support knowledge in the Quran having been derived from God.” http://www.islam-guide.com/video/simpson…
3) Dr. E. Marshall Johnson is Professor Emeritus of Anatomy and Developmental Biology at Thomas Jefferson University, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA. There, for 22 years he was Professor of Anatomy, the Chairman of the Department of Anatomy, and the Director of the Daniel Baugh Institute. He was also the President of the Teratology Society. He has authored more than 200 publications. In 1981, during the Seventh Medical Conference in Dammam, Saudi Arabia, Professor Johnson said in the presentation of his research paper:
“Summary: The Quran describes not only the development of external form, but emphasizes also the internal stages, the stages inside the embryo, of its creation and development, emphasizing major events recognized by contemporary science.” http://www.islam-guide.com/video/johnson…
Also he said: “As a scientist, I can only deal with things which I can specifically see. I can understand embryology and developmental biology. I can understand the words that are translated to me from the Quran. As I gave the example before, if I were to transpose myself into that era, knowing what I knew today and describing things, I could not describe the things which were described. I see no evidence for the fact to refute the concept that this individual, Muhammad, had to be developing this information from some place. So I see nothing here in conflict with the concept that divine intervention was involved in what he was able to write.”http://www.islam-guide.com/video/johnson…
4) Dr. William W. Hay is a well-known marine scientist. He is Professor of Geological Sciences at the University of Colorado, Boulder, Colorado, USA. He was formerly the Dean of the Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Science at the University of Miami, Miami, Florida, USA. After a discussion with Professor Hay about the Quran’s mention of recently discovered facts on seas, he said:
“I find it very interesting that this sort of information is in the ancient scriptures of the Holy Quran, and I have no way of knowing where they would come from, but I think it is extremely interesting that they are there and that this work is going on to discover it, the meaning of some of the passages.” And when he was asked about the source of the Quran, he replied: “Well, I would think it must be the divine being.”http://www.islam-guide.com/video/hay-1.r…
5) Dr. Gerald C. Goeringer is Course Director and Associate Professor of Medical Embryology at the Department of Cell Biology, School of Medicine, Georgetown University, Washington, DC, USA. During the Eighth Saudi Medical Conference in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, Professor Goeringer stated the following in the presentation of his research paper:
“In a relatively few aayahs (Quranic verses) is contained a rather comprehensive description of human development from the time of commingling of the gametes through organogenesis. No such distinct and complete record of human development, such as classification, terminology, and description, existed previously. In most, if not all, instances, this description antedates by many centuries the recording of the various stages of human embryonic and fetal development recorded in the traditional scientific literature.” http://www.islam-guide.com/video/goering…
