INTRODUCTION TO
EVOLUTION OF
HUMAN LIFE.
Evolution of human 02

life:

The diversity of life

on Earth today is
the result of
evolution. Life
began on Earth at
least 3.5 to 4 billion
years ago, and it
has been evolving
ever since.

DARWIN AND
THEORY OF
EVOLUTION.
 The idea of evolution has been around for
centuries. In fact, it goes all the way back
to the ancient Greek philosopher Aristotle.
However, evolution is most often associated
with Charles Darwin.

1 Darwin published a book on evolution in 1859 titled On the Origin of

Species. In the book, Darwin stated the theory of evolution by natural
selection.

2 Evolution is a change in the characteristics of living things over time.

As described by Darwin, evolution occurs by a process called natural
selection.

In natural selection, some members of a species, being better adapted or

3 suited to

4 their environment, produce more offspring than others, so

they pass "advantageous traits" to their offspring.

ISLAMIC VIEW ON EVOLUTION:
The various positions that
Muslim scholars have
adopted vis-à-vis Darwin’s
theory of evolution since its
inception in 1859 are here
reviewed with an eye on the
theological arguments that
are embraced, whether
explicitly or implicitly. A
large spectrum of views
and arguments are thus
found, ranging from total
rejection to total
acceptance, including
“human exceptionalism”
(evolution is applicable to
all organisms and animals
but not to humans).
Islamic theology follows Jewish and Christian
thinking in positing a single all-powerful Creator
God behind the universe. Unlike the Biblical book
of Genesis, however, the Qur‘ān does not provide
a chronological approach to sacred history, nor
does it treat the issue of creation in detail.
Nevertheless, there are several passages that
describe Allah as the creator of the world and
heaven. The main Arabic verb used for the
creative act of Allah is khalaqa, which is used in
the Qur‘ān both in the general sense of bringing
the world into existence and also in the specific
sense of creating humankind (insān) from a clot of
blood (Qur‘ān 96:2).
EARLY INVENTIONS.

Inventions don't generally happen

by accident or in a random order
science and technology progress in
a very logical way, with each new
discovery leading on from the last.
