Nonlinear science is a great revolution of modern natural science. As a result of its rise, the various branches of subjects characterized by nonlinearity have been developed vigorously. In particular, more attention to acquiring the exact solutions of a wide variety of nonlinear equations has been paid by people. In this paper, three methods for solving the exact solutions of the nonlinear 2 + 1 -dimensional Jaulent-Miodek equation are introduced in detail. First of all, the exact solutions of this nonlinear equation are obtained by using the exp − ϕ z -expansion method, tanh method, and sine-cosine method. Secondly, the relevant results are verified and simulated by using Maple software. Finally, the advantages and disadvantages of the above three methods listed in the paper are analyzed, and the conclusion was drawn by us. These methods are straightforward and concise in very easier ways.

The main idea of the project discussed in the article is that the production of scientific knowledge is not only an experimental process. Convention among scientists is played a special role in the acceptance of theory. To demon-strate this idea, H. Collins and co-authors of the relativistic empirical programme in the sociology of science publish a special issue “Knowledge and Controversy: Studies of Modern Natural Science”. The results obtained by the authors are discussed in this article.

This chapter examines the so-called “materialism controversy,” one of the most important intellectual disputes of the second half of the nineteenth century. The dispute began in the 1850s, and its shock waves reverberated until the end of the century. The main question posed by the materialism controversy was whether modern natural science, whose authority and prestige were now beyond question, necessarily leads to materialism. Materialism was generally understood to be the doctrine that only matter exists and that everything in nature obeys only mechanical laws. If such a doctrine were true, it seemed there could be no God, no free will, no soul, and hence no immortality. These beliefs, however, seemed vital to morality and religion. So the controversy posed a drastic dilemma: either a scientific materialism or a moral and religious “leap of faith.” It was the latest version of the old conflict between reason and faith, where now the role of reason was played by natural science.

This article focuses on contemporary scientific exegesis of the Qur'an, analysing ʿAbd al-Majīd al-Zindānī's unique model of embryonic development derived from Q. 23:12–14. Since the majority of Muslim legal scholars consider the three main stages of embryonic development mentioned in Q. 23:12–14 to take place within 120 days, this view has been considered as the majority Muslim view in academic research. However, I claim that since the 1980s al-Zindānī has successfully disseminated the perception that the embryonic stages mentioned in the Qur'anic text take place over 40 days. An examination of al-Zindānī's work and publications by the Commission on the Scientific Miracles in the Qur'an and Sunna (CSMQS) demonstrates that al-Zindānī uses an iʿjāz ʿilmī approach (i.e. seeking to establish harmony between the Qur'an and modern natural science) to advocate a new interpretation of the Qur'anic stages of embryonic development in order to validate the connection between modern science and the Qur'an. I argue that his model rests on three hermeneutical strategies: first, the reformulation of Ibn al-Qayyim's (d. 751/1350) model of embryonic development; second, the modification of the last Qur'anic stage from khalq to nashʾa; and third, his preference for the variant of the so-called Ibn Masʿūd ḥadīth canonised in Ṣaḥīḥ Muslim. Accordingly, he does not follow the fiqh tradition and excludes the stage of the embryo's ensoulment from his model. It is this exclusion of the ensoulment and the reformulation of the developmental stages that enables al-Zindānī to align his model with both the Qur'anic text and modern scientific findings.
