The Qur’an An Abiding Wonder
The Qur’an: The Book of God
~ 38 ~
Qur’anic account that corresponds exactly with
historical facts, unlike the biblical account which is
historically inaccurate. This shows that the Qur’an
was written without recourse to human sources of
knowledge, by One who had direct access to the
Truth.
AN EXAMPLE FROM HISTORY
According to the theory of evolution, both man and
animals are descended from a common ancestor.
That is, a single animal species passed through
many gradual stages of evolution, ultimately
developing into the chimpanzee, and finally, homo
sapiens.
Even if we take for granted the theory of evolution,
there are ‘missing links’ between these evolutionary
stages between animal and man which have still to
be accounted for. Where are the species still in the
process of evolution possessing both animal and
human features? Though no such real middle link
has yet been discovered, evolutionists believe that
such species did exist and will one day be
discovered.
