How dare I claim this statement!
First time I began doubting the accuracy of our modern science was over forty years ago when I got involved in a debate with several professors in behavioral science /anthropology, we were discussing the Darwinian theory of evolution that man evolved from an ape specie and that there was a missing link still not found.
I asked one professor how would we be expected to adopt this theory when there was still a missing link and why wouldn’t we consider the holy scripture about the origin of man instead, the answer was holy scripture is not considered a scientific reference. I debated this with the professor and insisted on my point of view, the professor took it to the dean of the faculty and later I was summoned to the Deans office to have an open debate with several professors in Anthropology, the debate took over three hours and we ended up were we started, I insisted on not accepting the Darwinian theory. The Dean was very open minded and noted that I was just as right in my belief as Darwin though he still supported the Darwinian theory since they do not consider Holy scriptures as scientific reference.
Later in life most anthropologist admitted the inaccuracy and fragile Darwin’s theory of Evolution.
As I progressed in my studies I took Holy scripture more seriously and began to discover more details about our human history and origin.
The Holy Quran contains numerous Ayas and psalms of scientific origin which drew my attention and increased my personal interest to study Holy scriptures more thoroughly and noticed one specific psalm mention that we were created from another seed which support the hybrid theory which is all over the youtube nowadays.
Holy Quran) Surat, Al An’am: 133(Your Lord is the Rich Beyond Need, the Possessor of Mercy. If He wills, He can do away with you, and substitute whomever He wills in your place, just as He produced you from the descendants of another people).
One particular psalms stated that God Allah created Earth then the Skies, ( Fussilat : Aya – 9,10,11,12) 9. Say, “Do you reject the One who created the earth in two days? And you attribute equals to Him? That is the Lord of the Universe.”
10. He placed stabilizers over it; and blessed it; and planned its provisions in four days, equally to the seekers.
11. Then He turned to the sky, and it was smoke, and said to it and to the earth, “Come, willingly or unwillingly.” They said, “We come willingly.”
12. So He completed them as seven universes in two days, and He assigned to each universe its laws. And We decorated the lower universe with lamps, and for protection. That is the design of the Almighty, the All-Knowing.
Quran states that God created Earth before the sky, science estimates the age of Earth around the five billion years figure and age of the Universe of 13.8 billion years theoretically meaning Earth is younger than the skies but according to holy scriptures it is the other way around. We need to admit that our human science is still in its infancy and most of it is based on theoretical assumptions this entails a great responsibility to tell students of science this truth and not mislead them into believing that scientific theories are sacred fact. It is rather fiction more than that, sometimes it may even be a wishful thinking to a frustrated scientist.
We do not originate from Apes and that’s a Fact….
I would rather rely on the Holy scripture reference than our modern science especially in the carbon dating they base their evaluation upon. The test organic elements on the surface all fallen decries from asteroids disregarding what might lie beneath the surface of the planet.
I also believe based upon Holy scripture references that we the sons of Adam and Eve were not the first humans to colonize planet Earth and probably won’t be the Last.
I also believe that some scientists began doubting these figures related to the age of Earth and the origin of man just as much as I do.
There is an abundance of evidence in Holy scriptures to support my pledge, one of them is the Holy Quran which proved its accuracy beyond doubt till now.
(Earth dating is based on evidence from radiometric age-dating of meteorite [6] material and is consistent with the radiometric ages of the oldest-known terrestrial and lunar samples.
The overall universe is about 13.7 billion years old. That figure, after decades of wildly varying estimates, was pinned down last year to within 200 million years of accuracy. Scientists used space-based observations of a microwave background radiation that had been unleashed as a dense fog cleared, shortly after the universe’s formation).
In short, based upon Holy scripture Earth is older than the skies and it is relevant to add that there is another Aya in the Quran which states that God created other similar to Earth planets so we may consider Earth as a type of planets that shares similar environments…
There is so much that we do not know regarding the world we live in let alone our galaxy and the universe it belongs to, our current science is still at its infancy and mostly theoretical.
Indeed, it would not be wise to rely solely on current science to explain the origin of our existence.
