The Kufr Theory of Darwin in our Schools

Muslim parents need to work swiftly and urgently against a new menace that has surfaced in our schools’ syllabi. Schools throughout South Africa have introduced the kufr theory of evolution espoused by Charles Darwin in the 18th century. This un-Islamic and illogical theory teaches that man originated from an ape. Charles Darwin was an English scientist who invented the idea that human beings descended from great apes. He believed that the great apes of the past underwent natural change and transformation over a gradual process lasting thousands of years, eventually turning into human beings. This is what evolution is in a nutshell.

During his time Darwin’s atheistic theory was acclaimed and accepted by some scientists, especially in England and Germany, but most of them rejected it. Even today, scientists have deep reservations as to the validity of evolution and the process of natural selection, meaning that the metamorphosis of ape into human occurred through the natural qualities of these animals that allowed them to survive as a species for thousands of years. All this is scientific rubbish, and simply a web of deception that Shaytaan has spun around the intellect of these so called intelligentsia.
In contrast to this Islamic teaches that man was created by Allah Ta’ala. In numerous verses in the Holy Quran this cornerstone belief of Islam is mentioned clearly and unambiguously. In Surah Baqarah Allah Ta’ala states: “And when Your Lord said to the Angels: ‘Verily I intend creating a representative on earth’. (Al Quran 2:30) The ensuing verses then go on to mention the creation of the first human being, Adam (alayhis salaam). In several verses of The Quran-e-Kareem Allah Ta’ala mentions the creation of Adam from a mixture of water and clay (mud), sometimes referring to this as black mud or potter’s clay. He also mentions that Adam (alayhis salaam) was fashioned in a unique way that resulted in what we know today as the human body with its labyrinth of veins, vessels, and arteries, all clustered together in an unparalleled anatomical structure. It defies logic and affronts human intellect to believe that all this could come about through an uncontrolled and unplanned ‘natural’ process.
School children are given assignments and projects to research the theory of evolution. If this danger is not checked, years later our kids will grow up with the concept of evolution firmly entrenched in their minds. Evolution is a belief that expels one from Islam. Parents should write to the Department of Education, in conjunction with Islamic organisations around the country, to protest against this atheistic theory and request that our Muslims be exempted from doing such assignments.
We will keep readers updated on similar efforts by Muslims in other parts of the country.
