How is Evolution thought of By The Quran?

Question

How do both concepts of
a) the existance of dinosaurs on Earth
b) Humanity was started by Adam & Eve
coincide according to Quran ?
Does it say anything about the very begining , before Adam?

Answer 1

1.) The Quran doesn't mention dinosaurs or refute them:

[36:36] Glory be to the One who created all kinds of plants from the earth, as well as themselves, and other creations that they do not even know.

2.) The Quran Supports an Evolution:

[71:14] He is the One who created you in stages***.

[71:15] Do you not realize that GOD created seven universes in layers?

[71:16] He designed the moon therein to be a light, and placed the sun to be a lamp.

[71:17] And GOD germinated you from the earth like plants***.

[71:18] Then He returns you into it, and He will surely bring you out


3) The Quran Concening Adam and Eve:

4:1] O people, observe your Lord; the One who created you from one being, and created from it its mate, then spread from the two many men and women. You shall regard GOD, by whom you swear, and regard the parents. GOD is watching over you.*

15:26] We created the human being from aged mud, like the potter's clay.

[15:27] As for the jinns, we created them, before that, from blazing fire.

[15:28] Your Lord said to the angels, "I am creating a human being from aged mud, like the potter's clay.

[15:29] "Once I perfect him, and blow into him from My spirit, you shall fall prostrate before him."

[15:30] The angels fell prostrate; all of them,

[15:31] except Iblis (Satan). He refused to be with the prostrators.


4.) Quran Concening Formation of Earth:
The Big Bang Theory Confirmed*

[21:30] Do the unbelievers not realize that the heaven and the earth used to be one solid mass that we exploded into existence? And from water we made all living things. Would they believe?

[21:31] And we placed on earth stabilizers, lest it tumbles with them, and we placed straight roads therein, that they may be guided.

[21:32] And we rendered the sky a guarded ceiling. Yet, they are totally oblivious to all the portents therein.

[21:33] And He is the One who created the night and the day, and the sun and the moon; each floating in its own orbit.

[21:34] We never decreed immortality for anyone before you; should you die, are they immortal?

[21:35] Every soul will taste death, after we put you to the test through adversity and prosperity, then to us you ultimately return



The Quran is the truth from God. I have absolute faith in it.
No human being could have explained complicated and unknown matters in such simple and clear ways.

Answer 2

Why are not able to it's each. Evolution needed to be initiated one way or the other. The phrase " be" then the approach started. Science has turn out many matters in Quran to be precise. InshaAllah we will be able to evolve to arrive the extent of knowledge.

Answer 3

There are evidence in Quran that even before Adam was created there are some creatures.
When God decided to create Adam, the angels asked God why create something which will create blood shed in the world. This means blood was already there in earth and Angels knew about that.

" Behold, thy Lord said to the angels: "I will create a vicegerent on earth." They said: "will you place therein one who will make mischief therein and shed blood?- whilst we do celebrate your praises and glorify your holy (name)?" He said: "I know what you know not." Quran 2:30.

Answer 6

God vs. Science

God is sitting in Heaven when a scientist says to Him, "Lord, we don't need You anymore. Science has finally figured out a way to create life out of nothing. In other words, we can now do what you did in the beginning."

"Oh, is that so? Tell me," replies God.

"Well," says the scientist, "We can take dirt and form it into the Likeness of You and breathe life into it, thus creating man."

"Well, that's interesting. Show me."

So the scientist bends down to the Earth and starts to mold the soil.

"Oh no, no, no," interrupts God. "Get your own dirt!"
