This study aims to critically analyze the scientific reasoning errors found in the book "The Sun Revolves Around the Earth" by Ahmad Sabiq bin Abdul Lathif Abu Yusuf. The book seeks to defend the geocentric model—which has long been abandoned by the modern scientific community—by relying on literal interpretations of Qur'anic verses and hadiths, without considering scientific approaches based on observation and experimentation. This research is a library study using descriptive qualitative methods and a content analysis approach. In the book, Ahmad Sabiq uses several verses and prophetic traditions to argue that the sun revolves around the earth. However, such an approach ignores scientific methodologies such as empirical validation, theory verification, and logical scientific reasoning. The fallacies identified include confirmation bias, reduction of complex scientific concepts, and unsupported generalizations. The book also overlooks the major contributions of scientists such as Copernicus, Galileo, and Newton, who systematically proved the validity of the heliocentric theory. From an epistemological standpoint, science and religion are not inherently contradictory. The Quraan itself contains many verses that encourage humans to reflect on and investigate the universe using reason and intellect. However, the errors in Ahmad Sabiq's book stem from a narrow textual understanding of religious texts that should be interpreted contextually, not literally. This has led to public misunderstandings and a lack of scientific literacy, particularly in the field of astronomy. This study further reveals that a purely textual approach to understanding natural phenomena can result in harmful misinformation, especially when presented without a valid scientific framework. Therefore, this critical analysis is essential not only to clarify the position of science objectively but also to highlight the need for an integrative approach between revelation and reason. The study underscores the importance of rationality, logic, and empirical verification in presenting scientific arguments while encouraging readers to view religious texts as universal and transhistorical sources of inspiration. The findings of this research are expected to contribute to strengthening scientific literacy among Muslim communities and to enrich ongoing discourse regarding the harmonious relationship between science and religion. Furthermore, this research serves as a reminder that religious arguments involving scientific matters must be tested through proper methodologies to prevent epistemological conflict and public misconceptions. The integration of revealed texts and scientific reality should continue to be developed in education, religious outreach, and scholarly Islamic writings.
