                   In the wake of the conclusion of the Human Genome Project, cer-
               tain publications began spreading misleading messages to cover up the
               impasse in which the theory of evolution found itself. One of the sub-
               jects brought up under different slogans and captions most frequently
               by the Darwinist-materialist press is the claim that the discovery of the
               gene map will supposedly be able to alter people's destinies.
                   It is a grave error to spread messages such as "Man will no longer
               be a victim of fate" together with information about the human gene
               map. In fact, the map's completion will definitely make no difference to
               human destiny, because the map itself is also part of that destiny. Allah
               reveals this fact in the Qur'an:
                   But you will not unless Allah wills. Allah is All-Knowing, All-Wise.
                   (Surat al-Insan, 30)
                   Destiny is the way that Allah knows all things in the past and pre-
               sent in the form of a single moment. Allah knows beforehand all things
               that have not yet taken place. A great many people fail to understand
               how He knows events that have not yet taken place. But the destiny
               that a person has not yet encountered is simply an event that, for that
               person, has not yet taken place. All events described as of "unknown"
               result are unknown to us alone. Omniscient Allah is unfettered by time
               and space. For that reason, the past, present and future are all one for
               Him, for He is the One Who created time and place. In the Sight of
               Allah, everything we are experiencing at this moment and everything
               we will experience in the future are all already over and done with.
               When the time comes, all humans witness the destiny created for them
               by Him.
                   In the same way that someone who holds the CD of a film can per-
               ceive the film's beginning, middle and end as a single disk, so Allah is
