258 THE MIRACLE OF PROTEIN

When the Prophet Moses (pbuh) threw his staff to the ground, as a
blessing of God, an inanimate piece of wood turned into a very much alive
creature that slithered and swallowed the conjurations of the others; in oth-
er words, a creature with a functional digestive system. This transforma-
tion took place instantaneously. Thus, God showed people an example of
how living organisms are created out of nothing. An inanimate matter
came to life by God simply willing it, in other words, with His command
‘Be’. This miracle that God granted to the Prophet Moses (pbuh) shattered
the superstitious evolutionary beliefs of the Egyptians of the time with a
single blow, and even those who were against the Prophet Moses (pbuh) re-
alized the truth at that very moment, renouncing their superstitious beliefs
and believing in God.
Furthermore, God informs us in the Qur’an about how the Prophet Je-
sus (pbuh) made a clay object in the shape of a bird and breathed into it, and
how the bird came to life by God’s Will:
Remember when God said, “Jesus, son of Mary, remember My
blessing to you and to your mother when I reinforced you with the
Purest Spirit so that you could speak to people in the cradle and
when you were fully grown; and when I taught you the Book and
Wisdom, and the Torah and the Gospel; and when you created a
bird-shape out of clay by My permission, and then breathed into
it and it became a bird by My permission...” (Surat al-Ma’ida, 110)
A bird came to life without being bound to any cause, by God’s leave
and miracle. A living bird emerging from inanimate matter is one example
of Almighty God’s peerless, causeless and sublime creation. Through this
miracle bestowed upon him by God, the Prophet Jesus (pbuh) revealed the
illogicality and invalidity of evolutionist thinking also. It is impossible for
those who try to arbitrarily reconcile Islam with evolution to offer an ex-
planation of these miracles of our Lord.
Just as God did not create the jinn, angels, the women of Heaven
(houris), the male servants of Heaven (gillmans), the children of Heav-
en, palaces and gardens of Heaven, hell and its guardians through evo-
lution, so did He not create mankind through evolution. God created
every detail in Heaven; the high palaces, ornaments, gardens, birds, foods
and infinite blessings instantly and out of nothing without any evolution-
ary process. The mansions in the Heaven, rivers of milk, thrones and jew-
els of Heaven were all created by God’s command “Be”. No cause is need-
ed such as foremen, tailors or craftsmen for those to appear. Just as the
fruits of Heaven such as date palms and figs or the jewels of heaven such
as pearls and mother-of-pearls were not created by means of evolution in
Heaven, they are not created by means of evolution in this world either.
Creation is not through evolution, neither in this world, nor in Heaven.
