IntroductionQuantum mechanics or also known as quantum physics is a field of science that studies the behavior of particles at the subatomic level. This theory tells us that pairs of short-lived particles and their antiparticles are constantly being created and destroyed in seemingly empty space. In quantum mechanics the strange behavior of electrons is not accurately explained and so far no theory is acceptable to everyone. scientific community to postulate the phenomena. Electrons connect, or intertwine, in such a way that changing one invariably affects the other, no matter how far apart they are; something Einstein called “spooky action at a distance.” Quantum matter can also exist in multiple places at once, or rotate clockwise and counterclockwise at the same time. But when scientists take a measurement, they always get only one answer. Why do particles at the subatomic level behave this way? Even though modern scientists are able to produce many technologically new products from the application of the principles involved in quantum mechanics, they are still struggling to explain the phenomena in the form of an acceptable theory. The above question remains unanswered. The purpose of this study is to provide some reasonable arguments from the perspective of Islamic science which will hopefully eventually lead to the answer to the questions. The knowledge available to modern scientists at present is still inadequate to explain the mysteries they are facing as the scientific journey penetrates deeper to the very edge of subatomic particles. Steven Hawking rightly agrees and believes that the partial theories of contemporary scientists are sufficient to make accurate predictions in all but… half of the article… IC, Journal of Scientific Exploration, 11:1 , pp. 69-78Pullman, B., 1998.
