== Magic, Miracles, and the Supernatural in the Quran ==
While miracles by definition are supposed to defy the laws of nature and scientific explanation, the examples of myths and legends briefly listed in this section illustrate the pre-scientific worldview with which the Quran was composed. Being a product of late antiquity, superstitious beliefs like jinn living among us, and black magic, form a sizeable part of the Qur'an, as well as the idea of God interacting and controlling everything, rather than scientific laws that therefore largely affect people at random. Even intimate things worshipping God, who is a corporeal anthropomorphic being literally sitting in the cosmos. These Qur'anic statements are listed on this page.
