Join Subboor Ahmad for this essential series, which provides a deep, critical analysis of Charles Darwin’s theory of evolution from an Islamic perspective. This course moves beyond the simplistic debates to present a rigorous, evidence-based critique of Darwinism, focusing on its philosophical and scientific deficiencies as viewed through the lens of classical Islamic metaphysics and modern scientific research. What You Will Learn: The Problem with Materialism: Explore the inherent philosophical assumptions of Darwinian evolution and why they fundamentally clash with the Islamic concept of a purposeful creation. Scientific Weaknesses: Understand the contested areas and disputes within the scientific community regarding core Darwinian mechanisms, such as random variation and natural selection. Theological Harmony: Discuss various Muslim approaches to reconciling scientific data with the Qur'anic narrative, including the definitive creation of Adam (peace be upon him). A Robust Islamic Framework: Equip yourself with the intellectual tools and arguments needed to navigate discussions on evolution and defend the traditional Islamic worldview on the origins of life. This course is vital for students, academics, and anyone seeking a well-researched, faith-consistent approach to the debate between science and Islam.
