THE EVOLUTION MISCONCEPTION

Every detail in this universe points to a superior creation. By con-

verse, 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 de-
molished with the recognition that Allah created the universe.
American astrophysicist 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 as-
sumption, the incorrect assumption, that the universe is infinite. The
singularity has brought us face to face with the cause – or causer – be-
yond/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 evolu-
tion, which holds that living things are products of coincidences, to be
true.
Unsurprisingly, when we look at the theory of evolution, we see
that this theory is denounced by scientific findings. The design in life
is extremely complex and striking. In the inanimate world, for in-
stance, we can explore how sensitive are the balances which atoms
