Inaccurate science in the Quran?
-
I am not a scientist and therefore cannot address the claims made in the wikiislam article about scientific inaccuracies in the Quran but for those who can, have any of you seen this and what is your take on their commentary and the translations they rely on and comment on?

there are many websites and videos about this, and an equal number refuting them.
From my studies, most are either based on traditional understandings, lack of cross-reference, selecting one meaning over another without validity, erroneous conclusions/assumptions etc.
But people are of course welcome to study them.

All are mistranslation and misunderstanding. There are many sites dealing with this, Google " Scientific accuracies in Qoran". Here is an example

There are no inaccuracies, Scientific mistakes or contradictions in Qoran.The best way to find out is to deal with a couple at a time . It will take you a while but it is worthwhile.Peace.

Start by looking at what evidence, those who claim there are scientific errors. have. Then move to those who support the science evidence of Qoran and compare.

Here is some science in Qoran
2130 ? Do the disbelievers ( and those who do not acknowledge or value the creator) not realise that the heavens and the earth used to be one solid mass that We exploded into existence ( Big Bang Theory!), and from water we made all living things? Would they believe?.?
1516 We placed Galaxies ( billions of them!) in the sky and adorned it for the beholder.? ( With or without telescope!)
1519 As for the earth, We constructed it and placed on it mountains and We grew on it a perfect balance of everything. ( for all the creatures who inhabit it.)
1520 We made it habitable for you and for creatures you do not provide for.?
1522 And We send the winds as pollinators and cause the water to come down from the clouds for you ( and animals) to drink. Otherwise you could not keep it palatable.( If it was not recycled, It will go stale!) There is nothing that We do not own infinite amount of, but We send it down in precise measure.? ( Can you be more precise and Scientific?)
Peace.
