THE EVOLUTION MISCONCEPTION

Every detail in this universe points to a superior creation.
By contrast, materialism, which seeks to deny the fact of cre-
ation in the universe, is nothing but an unscientific fallacy.
Once materialism is invalidated, all other theories based
on this philosophy are rendered baseless. Foremost of them
is Darwinism, that is, the theory of evolution. This theory,
which argues that life originated from inanimate matter
through coincidences, has been demolished with the recog-
nition that the universe was created by Allah. American as-
trophysicist Hugh Ross explains this as follows:
Atheism, Darwinism, and virtually all the "isms" emanating
from the eighteenth to the twentieth century philosophies are
built upon the assumption, the incorrect assumption, that the
universe is infinite. The singularity has brought us face to face
with the cause – or causer – beyond/behind/before the universe
and all that it contains, including life itself. 1
It is Allah Who created the universe and Who designed it
down to its smallest detail. Therefore, it is impossible for the
theory of evolution, which holds that living beings are not
created by Allah, but are products of coincidences, to be true.
