Behold! verily to Allah belong all creatures, inthe heavens and on
earth. What do they follow who worship asHis "partners" other than
Allah? They follow nothing but conjecture, and they do nothing but
lie.
(Qur'an, 10:66)

ifferent concepts may come to mind when the theory of evolution is
mentioned. Some people, mainly materialists who think that it is a
scientifically proven fact, fiercely support it and, equally fiercely,
reject all ideas opposed to it.
A second group consists of people who are not well-informed about the
theory of evolution's claims. They are not particularly interested in
it, since they do not realize the harm that Darwinism has done to
humanity over the last century and a half. They see no problem with
how it is imposed on people and fiercely defended, despite its
scientific invalidity, for they have closed their eyes to what is
going on.
Even if they know that this theory has lost all scientific
credibility, they cannot take seriously those who still find it
important, because they themselves do not consider it important. They
consider it unnecessary to explain the theory's invalidity or to
publish books and hold conferences on the subject, for in their eyes
the theory is already "oldhat" or passé.
A third group consists of those who, under the influence of
materialist suggestion and propaganda, view this theory as scientific
fact and look for a "middle way" between it and belief in God. They
acceptDarwinism's account of the origin of life word for word, yet try
to build a bridge between the theory of evolution and religious belief
by maintaining that this account operates under God's control.
In reality, each of these views is mistaken, for thetheory of
evolution cannot reasonably be portrayed as scientific fact, passed
off as unimportant, or adapted to religion. As we shall see throughout
this site, the theory's ideological framework consists of
anti-religious thought put forward to strengthen atheism and to give
it a firm foundation. Moreover, it is fiercely defended by people who
have been persuaded by materialism, for it is constructed on
materialist philosophy and offers a materialist commentary on the
world. From the time it was first put forward by Charles Darwin and
right up to the present day, it has brought humanity nothing but
conflict, exploitation, war, and degeneration. Given this,it is
essential that we acquire a sound understanding of the subject and
launch a serious fight against it onthe ideological level.
This site replies from a very different perspective to the errors of
those believers who still support the theory ofevolution. It offers a
response to those Muslims who look for common ground between the
theory of evolution and the fact of creation, and who even try to find
evidence for the theory in the Qur'an. The purpose is not to criticize
Muslim evolutionists, but rather to explain that their attitude is
mistaken, to assist them on the level of ideas, and to be a means
whereby they can adopt a more correct perspective.
Two other facts will be discussed in this site: First, that Darwinism
is a theory that lacks any scientific foundation, and second, that its
real target is religion. Therefore, it will emphasize how wrong it is
for Muslims to take the theory lightly or to underestimate it, and to
see no need to wage an intellectual struggle against it.
Believers should avoid defending this theory and its ideological
meaning, for both contradict the truths of Islam. Some may support the
theory because they are unaware of the disasters that it has visited
upon humanity, that it is supported by people who hate religion, and
that it rejects the fact of creation. That being the case, those
Muslims who have only a little information on the subject should avoid
going down that road, for as Allah tells the faithful in the Qur'an:
Do not pursue what you have no knowledge of. Hearing, sight and
heartswill all be questioned. (Qur'an, 17: 36)
Exemplary Muslims should research the matter in all sincerity
andbehave according to the realization that:
... Those who have become Muslim are thosewho sought right guidance.
(Qur'an, 72: 14)
As the above verse commands, Muslims who believe in the theory of
evolution must consider this theory carefully, carry out wide-ranging
research, and make their decision according to their consciences. This
site has been prepared tohelp them do so and to shed some light upon
thepath that they are following.
The men and women of the believers are friends of one another. They
command what is right and forbid what is wrong, and establish prayer
and pay welfare and charity, and obey Allah and His Messenger. They
are the people on whom Allah will have mercy. Allah is Almighty, All -
Wise. (Qur'an, 9: 71)
