Mohammed, you begged the following question; "please show me a single verse from quran contradicting science or which is against humanity".

Surah 5:31 Then Allah sent a raven (a black crow) that scratched the ground, to show him how to hide the dead body of his brother, "Shame (and curse) on me!" Said he: "Was I not even able to be like this crow, and (be able) to hide the dead body of my brother?" The he became full of sorrow.
Surah 5:60 He transformed into apes and swine, those who worshipped Evil and false gods.
Surah 6:76 When he saw the moon rising in splendor, he said: "This is my Lord".
Surah 8:12 I will bring about terror into the hearts of the disbelievers: So you strike above their necks and hit hard over all of their finger-tips and toes.
Sura 18:83 Until when he reached the setting place of the sun, he found it set in a pool of murky water.
Surah 54:1-3 The Moon
1. The Hour (of Judgment) is nigh, and the moon is cleft asunder.
2. But if they see a Sign, they turn away, and say, "This is (but) transient magic."
3. They reject (the warning) and follow their (own) lusts but every matter has its appointed time.

Here's what Anas had to say about Muhammad splitting the Moon:
Narrated Anas: "That the Meccan people requested Allah's Apostle to show them a miracle, and so he showed them the splitting of the moon". (Translation of Sahih Bukhari, Virtues and Merits of the Prophet (pbuh) and his Companions, Volume 4, Book 56, Number 831)

The history of Muhammad is astonishing. When he wasn't raiding caravans, raping young women or involved in over 70 wars, he entertained his followers by performing miracles. Are you not impressed?

And now Muhammed, what is your response?
