In the debate over the theory of evolution and creationism, Muslims generally fall in the middle. According to the Qur'an, the universe was created in six stages (eons), beginning with a "big bang." Muslims also accept that life first developed in water, and later in stages, over a period of time. Muslims naturally attribute this natural order to a plan put in place by the Creator. Most find this belief to be compatible with scientific theories on evolution.
Most Muslims also believe, however, that human beings are a unique life form that did not follow the path of evolution from apes. Islam teaches that human life was created "from a single pair of a male and a female."
So do I… as a Moslem..
