produce material explanations, no matter how counter-intuitive, no
matter how mystifying to the uninitiated. Moreover, that materialism

These are explicit statements that Darwinism is a dogma kept
alive just for the sake of adherence to materialism. This dogma
maintains that there is no being save matter. Therefore, it argues
that inanimate, unconscious matter brought life into being. It insists
that millions of different living species (e.g., birds, fish, giraffes,
tigers, insects, trees, flowers, whales, and human beings) originated
as a result of the interactions between matter such as pouring rain,
lightning flashes, and so on, out of inanimate matter. This is a
precept contrary both to reason and science. Yet Darwinists
continue to ignorantly defend it just so as not to acknowledge, in
their own eyes, the evident existence of Allah.
Anyone who does not look at the origin of living beings with a
materialist prejudice sees this evident truth: All living beings are
works of a Creator, Who is All-Powerful, All-Wise, and All-
Knowing. This Creator is Allah, Who created the whole universe
from non-existence, designed it in the most perfect form, and
fashioned all living beings.
The Theory of Evolution: The Most Potent Spell in the
World
Anyone free of prejudice and the influence of any particular
ideology, who uses only his or her reason and logic, will clearly
understand that belief in the theory of evolution, which brings to
mind the superstitions of societies with no knowledge of science or
civilization, is quite impossible.
