This challenging and insightful book addresses such pressing questions in science, philosophy and Islam as:
• Can a Muslim believe in the theory of evolution?
• Is the theory of evolution, by its very nature, atheistic?
• Did God create everything instantly or through stages?
• What does the Quran mean when it says that humans were created "from clay"?
• Can a Muslim believe that God created humans through an evolutionary process?
• Would shared common ancestry of monkeys and humans create a problem for Islam?
• Is the scientific age of the universe (billions of years) a problem for Islam?
• Does the creation of Adam contradict the theory of evolution?
These are, of course, hard questions. But we look closely at the Quran for answers.
