                earth, He Who made the angels messengers, with wings – two,
                three or four. He adds to creation in any way He wills. God has
                power over all things. (Surah Fatir, 1)
                As clearly understood from the statement in the verse, angels al-
            so have a very distinct appearance, very different from that of humans.
            Additionally, God informs us in the Qur’an that both angels and the
            jinn were created before mankind. It is very easy for God to create.
            Our Lord is the One Who creates out of nothing and without cause.
            Just as He created the jinn and angels out of nothing and in distinct
            forms, so did He create mankind as a separate creature out of nothing,
            without any need for evolutionary processes. The same is also true for
            other life forms such as animals and plants. Here is the explicit truth
            explained in the Qur’an: God created all beings instantaneously and
            out of nothing without subjecting them to evolution; in other words,
            without turning them into other species.

                MUSLIMS WHO ADVOCATE EVOLUTION
                CANNOT OFFER ANY EXPLANATION
                FOR THE MIRACLES MENTIONED IN THE QUR’AN
                God informs us in the Qur’an that when the Prophet Moses
            (pbuh) threw his staff to the ground, by God’s will, it turned into a liv-
            ing snake.
                As we are informed in the verses, when the Prophet Moses
            (pbuh) throws his staff to the ground, an inanimate tree branch turns
            into a living snake, and when he takes it in his hand, it reverts back to
            an inanimate tree branch, and when he throws it once more to the
            ground, it again comes to life. In other words, an inanimate matter
            comes to life and then becomes lifeless, and then comes to life again.
            With this miracle, God shows us the constant creation. God com-
            mands in the verses:
                He threw it down and suddenly it was a slithering snake. He
                said, ‘Take hold of it and have no fear. We will return it to its
                original form.’ (Surah Ta Ha, 20-21)
                ‘Throw down what is in your right hand. It will swallow up
                their handiwork. Their handiwork is just a magician’s trick.
                Magicians do not prosper wherever they go.’ (Surah Ta Ha,
                69)

                ‘Throw down your staff.’ Then when he saw it slithering like a
                snake he turned and fled and did not turn back again. ‘Have
                no fear, Moses. In My Presence the Messengers have no fear.’
                (Surat an-Naml, 10)
