Is it probable that all
the information com-
piled in thousands
of books in a library
is written by
chance? The answer
is "No". So, it is evi-
dent that DNA, the
molecule in which all
the information of a
living being is
stored, cannot come
into existence by
chance.

coded in the DNA by means of a special system. If we were to write down
the information encoded in DNA, then we would need to compile a giant
library consisting of 900 encyclopædic volumes of 500 pages each.
This incredibly voluminous information is encoded in the compo-
nents of DNA called "genes". At this point, there is an important detail
that deserves attention. An error in the sequence of nucleotides making
up a gene would render the gene completely useless. When we consider
that there are 200 thousand genes in the human body, it becomes more ev-
ident how impossible it is for the millions of nucleotides making up these
genes to be formed in the right sequence by coincidence.
So, never plead ignorance of the fact that this complex structure of
DNA is a special design. This is concrete evidence that Allah creates
DNA.

Evolutionists assert that all living beings evolved from the primitive
forms to the advanced. According to this groundless assertion, human be-
ings, too, evolved from half-man, half-ape beings called "primitive human
beings". However, today we know that there is not a concept of "primitive
man." Men have always been men and apes have always been apes. This
is a fact that has been proved. Fossils, alleged to be the ancestors of men,
