Yes. Religion is a faith based interpretation and Science is an observation based interpretation of that which is. They are both interpretations of that which is.

Where they diverge is when faith and observation do not agree. In this case, either the faith needs to be refined or the observation needs to be refined or, as is often the case, both need to be refined, because they are still interpretations of the same thing - that which is.

Must the facts about science agree with the Bible?

There is no real requirement for science to agree with the words of the Bible, or even for the Bible to literally agree with modern science. Stephen Jay Gould explained this when he said that the domain or magisterium for science is the empirical realm - what the universe is made from and why it works the way it does. The magisterium of religion includes the ultimate meaning and moral values. These magisteria are nonoverlapping - science does not comment on the ultimate meaning of life, while religion should not comment on the natural world.At times the Bible does disagree with the facts of science, which makes Stephen Jay Goud's recommendation more significant for Christians.

Why do Muslims generally regard science as being in conflict with their faith?

If you believe that the religion of Islam has all the answers to everything, then you don't need science. Either science is going to agree with Islam in which case it is superfluous, or it going to disagree in which case it is heretical. Either way, science loses. I should note that there is an effort by Muslims to create Islamic science, showing how science can be used to confirm the teachings of Islam. This is not unlike the Christian study of "creation science". In the end, everybody does want science on their side, but science must be subservient to religion, of you are a religious fanatic, as many people are.
