The Dark Spell of Darwinism
prove to them scientifically that it cannot be so. As if they had not heard
you, they pull out this faulty evidence again and again as their most impor-
tant proof for evolution.
If these people have the intelligence and knowledge to understand
what is told to them, so, how can they still continue to put forward their
claims? There is only one explanation: They don't want to be released from
their spell. Because they persist in rejecting the existence of Allah,
Darwinists continue to exert an influence over themselves and others. Of
course, they may know that evolution cannot be true; but to deny it would
mean accepting the existence of Allah. For this reason, they are careful to ac-
cept the spell wholeheartedly so that they don't have to examine the truth.
Avoiding seeing the signs of Allah, they cannot comprehend the
truths. In the Qur'an, Allah describes their situation:
We created many of the jinn and mankind for Hell. They have hearts they
do not understand with. They have eyes they do not see with. They have
ears they do not hear with. Such people are like cattle. No, they are even fur-
ther astray! They are the unaware. (Surat al-A'raf:179)
If you call them to guidance, they do not hear. You see them looking at you,
yet they do not see. (Surat al-A'raf:198)
Darwinists today are trying to deny, conceal or ignore the truth in
order to keep the myth alive. Yes this is a false road; by doing so they are
deceiving and also belittling themselves. Darwinists, too, should learn from
the verse revealed by Allah in the Qur'an:
Do not mix up truth with falsehood and knowingly hide the truth. (Surat al-
Baqara: 42)
After seeing the truth, the correct thing to do is to cease resisting and turn
towards it. Hitherto, a person may have believed in the myth of evolution out
of a lack of information, or the propaganda to which he has been subjected. If
that person is sincere, however, he will research and find the truth and abide
by it, rather than following deceptions that will humiliate him in this world
and the next. It must not be forgotten that sincerity and honesty will be well
rewarded in this world and in the Hereafter.
