LIVING F OS S ILS R E F UTE E VOL UT ION
Fossils are proof that evolution never happened. As the fossil record shows,
living things came into being in a single moment, with all the characteristics they
possess and never altered in the least for so long as the species survived. Fish
have always existed as fish, insects as insects and reptiles as reptiles. There is
no scientific validity to the claim that species develop gradually. Almighty Allah
created all living things.
