The complexity encapsulated within any single eye manifests
itself similarly in a single cell of a living thing, or even at the funda-
mental level of a single protein within that cell. This interrelated so-
phistication is the greatest obstacle facing the Darwinist claim of
“small, random changes” as an explanation for the development of
species. As we know, random effects are almost always destructive.
Any random mutation affecting a complex system will cause the col-
lapse of that system, even if it affects only one of its components.
Therefore, a mutation in the optic nerve will cause blindness in the
eye. Excessive current—as in a power surge—will damage a radio.
No one can imagine that it could turn that radio into a television.
Therefore, any random effect impacting on the eye will inevitably
damage it.
Recall that it is Allah Who creates the effects we refer to as ran-
dom. Therefore, all the phenomena that take place are wholly
planned, determined in the destiny set out by Allah. However, some
people interpret these as occurring randomly. What they refer to as
The eye consists of a number of components. In order for this complex system to
function and make vision possible, all of its components must work together at the
same time. The Cambrian life forms also display complex systems whose exis-
tence, some 530 million years ago, is a grave blow to evolution. This once again
demonstrates that they did not evolve, but were created.
