FOREWORD









             A     nyone who seeks an answer to the question of how living things,



                   including himself, came into existence, will encounter two distinct
                   explanations. The first is the fact that all living things were created
                   by the All-Wise and Almighty Allah. The second explanation is the
             theory of "evolution," which claims that living things are the products of
             coincidental causes and natural processes.
                 For a century and a half now, the theory of evolution has received
             extensive support from the scientific community. The science of biology is
             defined in terms of evolutionist concepts. That is why, between the two
             explanations of creation and evolution, the majority of people assume the
             evolutionist explanation to be scientific. Accordingly, they believe
             evolution to be a theory supported by the observational findings of
             science, while creation is thought to be a belief based on faith. As a matter
             of fact, however, scientific findings do not support the theory of evolution.
             Findings from the last two decades in particular openly contradict the
             basic assumptions of this theory. Many branches of science, such as
             paleontology, biochemistry, population genetics, molecular biology,
             comparative anatomy and biophysics, indicate that natural processes and
             coincidental effects cannot explain life, as the theory of evolution
             proposes, and that all life forms were created flawlessly.
                 In this book, we will analyze this scientific crisis faced by the theory
             of evolution. This work rests solely upon scientific findings. Those
             advocating the theory of evolution on behalf of scientific truth should
             confront these findings and question the presumptions they have so far
             held. Refusal to do this would mean openly accepting that their adherence
             to the theory of evolution is dogmatic rather than scientific.
