TAKING THE QUR'AN AS A GUIDE
and finally "human evolution." Zuckerman explains his rea-
soning:
We then move right off the register of objective truth into those
fields of presumed biological science, like extrasensory perception
or the interpretation of man's fossil history, where to the faithful
[evolutionist] anything is possible - and where the ardent be-
liever [in evolution] is sometimes able to believe several contra-
dictory things at the same time. 19
The tale of human evolution boils down to nothing but the
prejudiced interpretations of some fossils unearthed by certain
people, who blindly adhere to their theory.
Technology In The Eye and The Ear
Another subject that remains unanswered by evolutionary
theory is the excellent quality of perception in the eye and the
ear.
Before passing on to the subject of the eye, let us briefly an-
swer the question of "how we see". Light rays coming from an
object fall oppositely on the retina of the eye. Here, these light
rays are transmitted into electric signals by cells and they
reach a tiny spot at the back of the brain called the centre of vi-
sion. These electric signals are perceived in this centre of the
brain as an image after a series of processes. With this technical
background, let us do some thinking.
The brain is insulated from light. That means that the inside
of the brain is solid dark, and light does not reach the location
where the brain is situated. The place called the centre of vi-
sion is a solid dark place where no light ever reaches; it may
