in order to strengthen the propaganda regarding these creatures being man’s supposed earliest fore-

bears.
Yet this is just another Darwinist deception.
It is true that monkeys do have some characteristics that resemble those in humans. But this does not

alter the fact that humans and monkeys are two completely different entities. By Allah’s leave, so long
as there are monkeys in this world they will never be anything other than monkeys. No matter how
much they are trained they will never turn into humans with characteristics such as the ability to think,
perceive, interpret, foresee, behave intelligently, make judgments, act in a planned and conscious man-
ner or speak. No matter how much they repeat their efforts, monkeys will never be able to design air-

planes, build skyscrapers, write poems or study human beings in the laboratory. No matter how much
training they receive, they will never be able to design a project, or produce a superior civilization
through reflection and planning. This is because a monkey is an entity with the anatomical features spe-

cially bestowed on it by Allah, but bereft of the ability to speak and, most importantly, bereft of the hu-
man consciousness, of mind and soul. The fact it has a few abilities is definitely not proof of the claim
that it is the ancestor of man.
In making these claims, Darwinists try to make forget the main difference between humans
and monkeys. Man is an entity capable of saying “I am,” who is aware of his own existence and

why he is created, who is capable of reflecting on the reason for his existence and of making
judgments. For that reason, man is a totally different entity to other life forms. Compared
with this, anatomical similarities and abilities have only a minor differential capacity. A

conscious entity, aware of its own existence and capable of saying “this is me,” cannot
be accounted for in any materialist terms. No materialist account can explain a sup-
posed transition from a life form unconscious and unaware of its own existence in-

Apes and monkeys can never
produce a work of art or com-
pose music, even if given milli-

ons of years to do so because
these animals have no souls.
