Re: Why are Muslims against Evolution?!?
Honestly, I fail to understand why there would be a conflict between Islam and theory of evolution.
Allah says that He sent Adam to earth, but He does not tell us the mechanism which was followed to make it happen. That mechanism could be evolution.
It is like Allah saying that He provides rizq or food to people. But He does not do it by actually passing the food Himself to everyone. Rather there is a worldly mechanism available which makes it happen. People work on their jobs and they get paid.
The ultimate Being which created these worldly mechanisms is Allah. And evolution is just one such mechanism which resulted in Adam’s coming to earth.
Peace khoji
This thread is not about whether there is a conflict between Islam and evolution that is a side-topic - this thread is really one where we can say that evolution is not a fact. Do you agree? Isn’t evolution as we know it today merely a belief?
