Abstract

There is no accurate description of a kind of "biological classification" in THE HOLY QUR’AN and THE OLD TESTAMENT. Moreover, in contrast to the biological texts, Qur’an and THE OLD TESTAMENT do not aim at scientific categorization of creatures, and therefore it seems that their verses are the reflection of their addressees’ knowledge of the NATURE. Both these books have similar attitudes toward creatures– particularly plants– and perhaps these similarities are rooted in their same revelatory origin or the similar cultural background of their prophets and their addressees. However, the Qur’an’s description of creatures is more elaborate than that of THE OLD TESTAMENT.Therefore, only through logical deductions from the verses of Holy Qur’an, THE OLD TESTAMENT and their interpretations one can talk about the "biological classification" according to these two scriptures. This essay tries to give an account of such classification and to compare their similarities and discrepancies. This leads us to this conclusion: The COSMOLOGY of the holy scriptures basically differ from the viewpoints of the Greek philosophers.
