W Why a Muslim Cannot be an

Advocate of Evolution

Based on the knowledge of the 1940s and 1950s, some Muslims

imagine that evolution is a theory supported by science, and try to
reconcile it with Islam employing a strange logic which suggests that
'Muslims knew about evolution long before Darwin.' This logic is a
product of serious lack of knowledge. Science has proven the inva-
lidity of evolution. The fact science reveals is the fact of creation.
The fact that Muslims believe in, and the Qur'an clearly states, is
that God created everything. Therefore, it is impossible for a Muslim

to advocate the theory of evolution, which is a pagan superstition
dating back to the time of the ancient Egyptians and Sumerians, ex-
plaining everything with coincidences.
God surely could have created the living organisms through evolution
if He had wished so. However, the Qur'an does not contain any such in-
formation or any verse supporting the gradual formation of life forms as
claimed by evolutionists. Had such a manner of creation existed, we
would have seen it in the verses of the Qur'an with its elaborate expla-
nations. But on the contrary, God informs us in the Qur'an that life and

the universe is created miraculously with God's commandment, 'Be'.
