do muslims believe in speciation...prove it.?

Answer 1

speciation:
spe·ci·a·tion (spē'shē-ā'shən, -sē-) n.
The evolutionary formation of new biological species, usually by the division of a single species into two or more genetically distinct ones.
----------------------------------

Islam does not affirm such a standpoint. According to the Qur'an, Adam (pbuh) - the first man - was a direct creation of God, as a man. The Qur'an does not support that Adam evolved from another species.

However, it may be of some interest to note that in Al-Sajadah 32: 7 - 9, the Qur'an has referred to three different stages involved in the creation of man in such words that a slightly varied version of 'evolution' may be derived from it. The Qur'an says:

He, Who perfected everything that He created - He started the creation of man from clay then he inculcated in him [i.e. man] the potential to reproduce through a drop of humble fluid then He embellished and fashioned him in due proportion; and breathed into him of His spirit and [thereby] developed in you [the abilities of] listening, vision and feeling.

The above verses clearly tell us that in the beginning man was created from clay. The words 'creation from clay', obviously, do not necessitate that God created an effigy of man from clay and then gave life to it. It may, as we know, imply that in the beginning man came into existence out of the earth [the mud or the clay etc. of the earth]. In other words, God inculcated in earth - mixed with water - the potential to produce life. Over centuries or even millennia, the life-bearing potential of the earth materialized and a species quite similar to, yet somewhat different from man was born. This was the first stage in the creation of man, as is evidenced by the words: "He started the creation of man from clay".

In the second stage, the potential of reproducing life - of bearing offspring - through sexual contact between the male and the female genders was inculcated in this species. This stage is mentioned in the words: "then he inculcated in him the potential to reproduce through a drop of humble fluid".

In the third stage, the species was physically fashioned into proportion and with that God also breathed into it of His spirit, which developed in it the abilities of listening, vision and feeling. The words: "then He embellished and fashioned him in due proportion; and breathed into him of His spirit and [thereby] developed in you [the abilities of] listening, vision and feeling", point to this final stage in the development of the human species.

It may be interpreted from the above explanation that it was only the first pair of near-humans - i.e. Adam and Eve - who went through the three stages explained above. That is Adam's (and Eve's) creation was initiated from clay - that is they were produced through the life-generation potential inculcated in the earth. Later on, the potential of reproduction through sexual contact was inculcated in Adam (and Eve). In the third stage, Adam (as well as Eve) was physically fashioned into due proportion and God breathed into them of His spirit and thereby developed the higher sapiential abilities in them.

However, contrary to the above interpretation, another theory that may be developed on the basis of the information given in the referred verses may be as follows:
Man's creation, in the first stage, was initiated by the production of a like species from the earth. In this stage, a number of near-human pairs - male and female - were produced directly from the earth.

In the second stage, the near-human pairs were inculcated with the ability of reproducing life through sexual interaction between the male and the female gender of the species.

In the third stage, one of the directly produced pairs (as in the first stage)[4] - i.e. Adam and Eve - were physically fashioned into due proportion and were inculcated with the advanced human abilities. It was at this stage that Adam and Eve became complete humans.

Over subsequent centuries, the other directly produced pairs (in the first stage) and their offspring became extinct. The only pair that survived, through its offspring was that of Adam and Eve.

The whole human race that populates the planet is the offspring of the one directly produced pair, which was physically fashioned into due proportion and inculcated with the advanced human faculties.

In view of the information provided by the Qur'an and the human knowledge that has developed over time, one may ascribe to any explanation that seems correct to him. However, if the latter theory is accepted to be correct, it also helps explain the existence of the slightly different fossil bones. It seems that these bones are of the near-humans that, in contrast to Adam and Eve and their subsequent generations, were not physically fashioned into proportion or inculcated with the advanced human faculties and which became extinct over time.

Answer 2

Of course no ! Human didn't originate from the so called "common ancestor" from which chimps, dogs, rats and other creatures also originated from ! God created us as honored, dignified, higher creatures than all others. We can't equalize or compare ourselves to such lower animals. It's just absurd and irreverent to the human kind. Think of it. We are all "humans" not chimps. Anyway, it's still a theory not a fact. I do believe in the Natural Selection theory becuse it is plausible. But the common ancestor part and the human evolution, I don't think so. Think of yourself as the clean human not the chimp that smells or the rat that carries flees !

Answer 3

i'm a biology significant and that i conflict with this question. final semester I had this geology type concerning the historic previous of the earth and it blew my strategies. additionally they stated Earth colliding with the planet Theia (i observed somebody else introduced this up too) to create the earth as all of us be attentive to it now and bobbing up the moon which stabilized earth's orbit and well-known the tidal varieties. I do have faith in evolution yet guy. The greater you learn, the greater you rather comprehend what number variables must be in play to make issues a possibility for all times as all of us be attentive to it. each and every thing works at the same time so completely, i rather have faith Allah created distinctive those issues and made it ensue. i do no longer think of it replace into some huge twist of fate or fluke of nature.

Answer 4

The sacred texts of Islam say very little about the mechanisms of species creation, Allah is free to do whatever He wishes. Thus, if He wished to create various species by the mechanism of, say, natural selection then that is fine.
