Page 81 - Miracles of the Qur'an
P. 81
We have discussed some miracles of God's Book, which He sent to
mankind as a guide and warning. With these miracles, God has given us many
signs that the Qur'an is the Book of Truth, and invited people to reflect upon it.
One of the most important subjects God points to in the Qur'an is man's
recognition of the flawless signs of creation on the Earth and appreciation of
His might through remembering them. Today, however, there are various
ideologies which want to make people oblivious of the Fact of Creation and try
to divorce them from religion with baseless ideas.
The most significant of these is materialism.
Darwinism, i.e., the theory of evolution, is the main theory that
materialism adopts as a so-called scientific basis for its own ends. This theory,
which claims that life originated from inanimate matter by chance, has actually
collapsed with the confirmation of the fact that the universe was created by
God.
It is God 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 God, but 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 instance, we can explore how
sensitive are the balances which atoms rest upon, and further, in the animate
world, we can observe in what complex designs these atoms were brought
together, and how extraordinary are the mechanisms and structures such as
proteins, enzymes, and cells, which are manufactured with them.
This extraordinary design in life invalidated Darwinism at the end of the
20th century.
We have dealt with this subject in great detail in some of our other studies,
and shall continue to do so. However, we think that, considering its
importance, it will be helpful to make a short summary here as well.
