The Cambrian Evidence That Darwin Failed to Comprehend
It is a great miracle created by Allah for any organism to leave
all its characteristics on a rock. On occasion, an organism that died
and was swiftly buried in sand or silt would sometimes leave all its
features mineralized, from its digestive system to its nerve endings.
Proof of its existence remains in rocks millions of years old. Allah re-
veals His glorious creation and creative artistry in whatever manner

flawless artistry in the fossils of Cambrian life forms.
Say: “Allah’s is the conclusive argument. If He had willed He could
have guided every one of you.” (Surat al-An‘am, 149)
Some Preserved Fossils
This section deals with the characteristics of life forms found in
Cambrian strata dating back some 530 million years. Latin names
are cited in order to provide general information, but the important
thing is to demonstrate that the creatures that appeared during this
period possessed various complex systems and body parts resem-
bling those of present-day organisms and were sometimes even
more specialized. Their remains of around 530 million years ago
show that they were created with immaculate details and beauty.
They totally undermine the theory of evolution, in allowing us to
see what extraordinary entities they were.
For people who believe in Almighty Allah, of course, it’s no
surprise to see such sophisticated creatures living some 500 million
years ago as well as today. Allah, the Omniscient and Almighty, has
the power to create them when He wills, in the form He wills and
where He wills.
Allah reveals it in one of the verses of the Qu’ran:
Allah created every animal from water. Some of them go on their
