Take a brief walk through your house and consider how many things that make your life easier have been thought of beforehand and laid out for your use.
Before you even enter the front door, you find a doormat set out for you to wipe your shoes on and, as you step inside, a coat rack on which to hang your coat or jacket. Various items such as armchairs, carpets, curtains and a television have been laid out for decoration or comfort; the refrigerator, oven and cupboards in the kitchen are ready to meet all your needs.

Is He Who creates like him who does not create? So will you not pay heed? If you tried to number Allah's blessings, you could never count them. |
The same applies to your desk, lamp, wardrobe and bookcase. There is a purpose behind each of them being located where they are.
No one could claim that all these devices are the products of coincidence or that they installed themselves in their allotted places. Whether the item be as small as a salt cellar, or as heavy as a mirror hanging on the wall, every visitor will agree that these are all deliberate substances, having been arranged in their locations in a conscious manner. It would be exceedingly illogical to try to account for these products of considerable planning, intelligence and knowledge, created to satisfy particular needs and for specific purposes, in terms of coincidence.
However, bring up the subject of living things, and some people claim that a living cell—which even with the most advanced technology, in the most highly developed laboratories and with the accumulated knowledge of many years, has never been brought into being—appeared as the result of a chain of coincidences over millions of years. They defend that claim, which is devoid of any scientific basis, out of their blind belief in Darwin's theory.
In fact, however, just as the theory of evolution has been invalidated in such fields as paleontology, genetics, comparative anatomy and observational biology, so it has collapsed in the sphere of molecular biology, which deals with the very origin of life. The claim of Darwinists, which may be summarized as "life is the product of coincidences and natural laws" reaches an impasse at the molecular level, before even reaching the cellular stage.
In the course of this book you will see that the cell membrane, just one of the complex structures in the cell, is the work of a superior Wisdom and Creation, and will see how by itself, even this delicate membrane invalidates the Darwinists' claims of coincidence.
