just found this, and thought it was very interesting. What do you think about it? Does it change the way you think about this?
"Is There Creation? Or Evolution? Or Both?
Quran Teaches - BOTH!
It says, "Allah is - Al Khaliq" (The Creator)
It also says, "Allah is - Al Bari" (The Evolver)"

I read about it a while ago... keeps me thinking all the time how wonderful my religion is.
It also made me see that the warning of global warming is mentioned in the Qur'an, and I kind of wandered off and reached to the reason dinosaurs were created, and so on and so on.
Peace.

Islam has an advantage in that it can be fairly lose with it's translations.
There was no creation only evolution.
I love this bit from your link:
"So all the information that will answer whether or not the souls of the first humans were put into homo sapiens, is banned. Muslims don’t venture into this topic simply because God ordered them not to."
Don't Go Science ! It looks like Allah wants some rigidly defined areas of doubt and uncertainty. Is he a member of the Amalgamated Union of Philosophers, Sages, Luminaries and Other Thinking Persons by chance?

That's funny - it seems allah did not write a book that was clear enough for humans to understand, because there are plenty of science-denying muslims too.

Does the Quran claim that the Earth was created with life fully formed, a la biblical genesis?

Another reason Islam is more sane than Christianity.
