“The Qur’an itself repeatedly recommends Muslims to become better educated in order better to understand God’s creation”
Closing Address by His Highness Aga Khan IV at the “Musée-Musées” Round Table Louvre Museum, Paris, France, October 17th 2007
“……The Quran tells us that signs of Allah’s Sovereignty are found in the contemplation of His Creation – in the heavens and the earth, the night and the day, the clouds and the seas, the winds and the waters….”
Aga Khan IV, Kampala, Uganda, August 22 2007
“The Quran very often refers to nature as a reflection of Allah’s power of creation and says: Look at the mountains, look at the rivers, look at the trees, look at the flowers all as evidence of Allah’s love for the people whom He has created. Today I look at this environment and I say that I believe that Allah is smiling upon you, may His smile always be upon you”
Aga Khan IV, Khorog, Tajikistan, May 27th 1995
