Dear Raihan
Neither the egg nor the hen was created at the begining. As I understood from the Quran and from Darwin's book on the origin of species: soil, water and lightening(electricity) had created a cell from which everything had evolved like pottery. And pottery was used by Prophet Mohammad(pbuh) to describe how the species were created.
However, I don't know if anyone ever would be able to reproduce to test this quranic revelaton or Darwin's hypothesis but that's the best accepted knowledge avaible to us.
By denying these facts, you are not only going against the Quranic revelation but also against the scientific communities accepted beliefs about evolution.
Please find below those quranic verses that meticulously and precisely the Quran describes the theory of evolution: the
origin of species.
21:30 that every living thing were made from water.
24:45 Allah has created every animal from water. Of them are some that creep on their bellies, some that walk on two legs and some that walk on four.
15:26 that we created man from sounding clay, from mud molded into shape as the one used in making pottery.
71:14 and Allah has created you in stages
71:17 And Allah has caused you to grow as a growth from the earth(gradually).
27:64 Is not He (Allah) who originates creation, and repeats it, and Who provides for you from the Skies and the earth? is there any ilah(god) with Allah? say, "bring forth your proofs, if you are truthful.
Based on those above verses, I respectfully request Mr. Raihan to reconsider his position and come to his own senses and let his mind to accept before he denies it.
And if he thinks that the soil, water, and ligthening was not the part by which a cell was created in order to species to evolve, please bring forth your proofs, if you are truthfull?
In Darwin theory of evolution, nowhere he didn't mention, we human evolved from an Ape but we human do share with the animal's genetical level or atomic or molecular level but each species has its own identical genetical code which suggests each of us were originated separately.
I think, Schrodinger's Cat and post-Darwinists' Ape analogies were introduced to generate curiosity among students for them to have tension-wisdom within themselves, so that students become aware of it and reflect on it to become better human and understand Allah's [Almighty's] creation as suggested various parts in Quran.
Only criticims should be offered and be accepted if there are any alternative views which lead us to acquire new knowledge. Please avoid psychological meanigs or stereotypes and polemic writers should refrain from commenting on this topic.
