Reflections on the Glorious Quran

"He said: O Iblis! What hindereth thee from falling prostrate before that which I have created with both My hands ? Art thou too proud or art thou of the high exalted ?" 38:75 Surah Saad

The expression "both My hands" is interpreted by Pickhall as referring to humans beings created "with both the glorious and terrific attributes of Allah, whereas the angels were created of only one class of attributes." This infers to the human status of being 'ashraful makhluqat' as in Arabic, meaning intellectually highest of all the earthly species created by Allah. This aspect of being 'ashraful makhluqat' as bestowed on humans is primarily the God-given human ability to think & reflect and the ability to choose their path of conduct, whether to be obedient or disobedient to the commands of Allah. As ordained by Allah, the angels have the ability only to obey Him.

What is the most significant difference between precambrian life forms and paleozoic life forms?

The most significant difference is the complexity and diversity of life forms.

Additionally, the Cambrian explosion during the Paleozoic era saw a rapid diversification of life forms.


Why is Darwin's book called the descent of man and not the ascent of man?

Darwin's book is titled "The Descent of Man" to emphasize the idea that humans share a common ancestry with other species, highlighting our evolutionary roots rather than an upward progression. The term "descent" reflects the evolutionary process of divergence from common ancestors, suggesting that humans have evolved from simpler forms of life. This perspective challenges the notion of humans as a pinnacle of creation, instead placing us within the broader context of the tree of life.
