256      THE MIRACLE OF PROTEIN



                            Your Lord said to the angels, ‘I am going to create a human be-
                            ing out of clay. When I have formed him and breathed My
                            Soul into him, fall down in prostration to him!’ (Surah Sad,
                            71-72)
                            But satan made them slip up by means of it, expelling them
                            from where they were. We said, ‘Go down from here as ene-
                            mies to each other! You will have residence on the earth and
                            enjoyment for a time.’ (Surat al-Baqara, 36)
                            In another verse of the Qur’an, God informs us about the
                        promise given by all mankind in the spiritual realm as follows:
                            Remember God’s blessing to you and the covenant He made
                            with you when you said, ‘We hear and we obey.’ Have fear of
                            God. God knows what the heart contains. (Surat al-Ma’ida, 7)
                            Those who gave their promises to God in the spiritual realm
                        were not part human and part other creatures, with incomplete forms
                        and undeveloped limbs. They were complete and conscious humans.
                        This is a clear proof that creation through evolution does not exist in
                        the Qur’an.


                            THOSE MUSLIMS WHO ADVOCATE EVOLUTION ARE
                            UNABLE TO EXPLAIN THE CREATION
                            OF ANGELS AND THE JINN

                            When those who claim that mankind developed through an evo-
                        lutionary process are asked about how angels and the jinn were creat-
                        ed, their answer will be ‘God created them out of nothing’. It is quite
                        astonishing that these individuals, who are aware of and acknowledge
                        the fact that angels and the jinn are creations of God, fail to realize that
                        God created mankind in the same manner. It is highly surprising that
                        they fail to see that Almighty Lord, Who created angels with His com-
                        mand ‘Be’, created mankind in the same manner. Likewise, God cre-
                        ates angels in human form, instantaneously. The angels who visited
                        the Prophet Abraham (pbuh) had the appearance of fully developed
                        and flawless human beings and were created instantaneously.
                            God informs in the Qur’an that the jinn, unlike mankind, were
                        created from fire:
                            He created man from dry earth like baked clay; and He creat-
                            ed the jinn from a fusion of fire. (Surat ar-Rahman, 14-15)
                            As God reveals in the Qur’an, the creation of angels is also quite
                        different from the creation of mankind. In the following verse, God
                        informs us about the creation of angels:
                            Praise be to God, the Bringer into Being of the heavens and
