these. Life is maintained continuously through protective mea-
sures and repair mechanisms. As we have seen, iron has the ca-
pability of damaging the most basic components of life. Unless

there are special protection systems in place, life would collapse.
Despite all these protective measures, countless proteins are
damaged every day even in protected cells. When this is the
case, it is clear that life would have been under constant threat
under the world conditions that evolutionists claim existed in
the so-called primitive earth. It is also clear that, under such

conditions, random, spontaneous or gradual development can-
not account for the cell. God created life and God allows it to
continue.
Indeed, God informs us of this fact with the following

verse:
“God keeps a firm hold on the heavens and earth, prevent-
ing them from vanishing away. And if they vanished no one
could then keep hold of them.” (Qur’an, 35:41)
