features in tact and with no imperfections. They are no dif-
ferent to members of their species which are alive today.
Allah created them all.
WHAT HAPPENED DURING
THE CAMBRIAN PERIOD?
The oldest fossils of living things date from the time
known as the Cambrian period, some 500 million years
ago. The creatures that lived during the Cambrian period
also prove that the theory of evolution is completely wrong.
How is that?
These creatures appeared all of a sudden during the
Cambrian period. Before them, no other living things existed
on the planet. The fact that these creatures appeared out of
nowhere and all of a sudden is proof that Allah created them
in a single instant. If the theory proposed by evolutionists
were right, then these creatures must have evolved gradually
from simpler ancestors. However, these creatures have nei-

anywhere in the fossil record. Fossils show us that these
creatures—just like all other living things—suddenly ap-

tact, but with no alleged evolutionary ancestors from whom
