Science deals with the natural world, while religion deals with matters of faith and morals. Sometimes religion seeks to interpret the natural world, creating clear differences between science and religion. Genesis chapter 1 says that God created the light of day before the sun and moon existed, a scientific absurdity but perfectly plausible to the ancients. It also says that grass and trees existed before the sun was created. Most importantly, science insists that the sun and stars existed long before the earth was formed.
Stephen Jay Gould proposed the concept of Nonoverlapping Magisteria (NOMA). 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. He said that 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.

Per Islam religion, there are no differences between religion and Islam. It was the sense that all scientific statements that are mentioned in Quran become true and their correctness are validated through the current advances in sciences and technologies. Accordingly this matching is a proof of the divinity of Quran and that it was impossible to be a human authored text that was written from more than 14 centuries ago. Refer to question below for more information.
A fundamental difference is that there is no scientific creation story. Scientists look for evidence, identify and announce facts supported by that evidence, then develop hypotheses that explain those facts. If peer review of the hypotheses shows them to be scientifically valid and entirely consistent with the facts, they may be accepted by the scientific community as theories. But any one theory only explains a small part of the natural world. It takes an understanding of many, well-accepted theories to cover the creation of the universe, the evolution of the stars, the formation of the earth and the other planets, the beginning of life and the evolution of species.
The most well-known religious creation stories are those in Genesis chapters 1 and 2. These differ fundamentally from each other and from what is now known from science about the creation of the world.
The first creation story, Genesis 1:1-2:4a, shows a lack of understanding by the ancients of the true sources of light and wamth on Earth. It has God creating day and night before the sun, moon and stars are created. The sun and moon are created to 'rule' the day and night, consistent with ancient religious beliefs. And there is even grass before there is a sun, and therefore the Earth is not only dark, but inhospitably cold.
The second creation story, Genesis 2:4b-2:25, is older and more primitive, and does not deal with the creation of the sun, moon and stars. It has Adam created before any other animal, but Eve is created after all the animals. In scientific terms, that would involve a span of more than a billion years.
In both biblical creation stories, the fundamentals are actually all there. In the first story, God does not create the land, sea or air. The waters were already there, and a wind blew over its surface. The land appeared when God parted the waters below.
In the second creation story, the dry land is there, but no plants grew because God had not yet made it rain.
AnswerThere is no difference between the creation account of Genesis and the scientific perspective of scientists who hold a Creationist worldview. For those who hold an evolutionary worldview, they either see the differences as being total and absolute, or they see evolution as the Biblically unmentioned vehicle for creation.A fundamental difference is that there is no scientific creation story. Scientists look for evidence, identify and announce facts supported by that evidence, then develop hypotheses that explain those facts. If peer review of the hypotheses shows them to be scientifically valid and entirely consistent with the facts, they may be accepted by the scientific community as theories.

Scientific knowledge is based on having proven conclusions, while faith is based on belief in something.
When observing the known universe and everything in it religion has definitive answers where as science suggests levels of probability.

Explain how a research becomes a scientific knowledge
a way not to gain scientific knowledge is by not using the right materials
The scientific method is a scientific method for systematically acquiring new knowledge. The scientific method is typically applied to experiments, involving taking a hypothesis and using it to get applicable results.
we can gave scientific knowledge by observing our science teacher and by reading magazines related to science
Scientific knowledge is based on having proven conclusions, while faith is based on belief in something.
Simply put, knowledge derived from faith is commonly called belief. In many scientific models, such knowledge is often called axiomatic, given, or tautological.
Faith knowledge is based on belief in something, while consensus knowledge is based on accepting something if others believe it to be true.

If faith is a source of knowledge, what kind of knowledge does it provide?
how can scientific knowledge be modifiel
Scientific knowledge is not absolute.
Theology is the scientific study of religion and religious matters. Different faiths have different theologies.
Yes, kzor is the particular region in mind of god and his faith with the spirits.
it moves scientific knowledge forward
the relationship between a scientific investigation and a scientific knowledge is that they lead to constantly changing.
Science is based on faith in four issues that confirm many scientific theories:Evidence. Scientists must look for evidence to support or refute scientific theories.Consistency. Scientific theories must be internally consistent and consistent with other scientific theories in the same context.Repeatability. Scientific experiments must capable of being repeated by other researchers, who can endorse or contradict the original findings.Predictability. A good scientific theory should be able to predict facts not yet known.If it were not possible to have total faith in these issues, then scientific knowledge would be no more reliable than religious dogma.
