The DNA molecule is a manual that needs to be
read by every living thing on Earth. Neither animal,
nor plant nor human life would be possible in the ab-
sence of that information. Your arms and legs, the
structure of the eye, the working of your brain, the har-
mony between your coronary and circulatory systems,
and your entire immune system become functional by
using the data stored inside DNA. Therefore, in order
for any living thing to exist, its DNA molecules must
exist, too. There can be no question of a penguin, a
cat or a fish without DNA in each of its cells. This da-
ta store, directing all the body's activities over the
course of its entire life, must have been installed in-
side cells ever since the moment when life was first
created. The slow, gradual development maintained
by the theory of evolution is out of the question. The da-
ta store in the DNA molecule is an evident proof of the
mercy of Allah manifested in human beings and in the
world.
Our Almighty Lord best knows the needs of all living
things. In one verse of the Qur'an it is revealed:

. . . He has most knowledge of you when He
first produced you from the earth, and when
you were embryos in your mothers' wombs. So
do not claim purity for yourselves. He knows
best those who guard against evil. (Surat an-
Najm, 32)
