Universal Dimensions of Leadership: Imam Mohammed (ra) The Truth About Evolution

“I agree with Darwin in part this physical image and likeness belongs to the animal kingdom, its talking about, although there is something special about our physical symmetry and our design, something special about it that makes us the top of the animal kingdom.

But when G’d says He made us in His image and likeness I think G’d is saying to Christians and its what we believe in Islam too, that man though he’s physical, he needs the physical to exist, for communication, for his existence in this world he is a spiritual entity, man is a spiritual entity.  Man is to be understood in the abstract not in the concrete, he is to be known and identified in the abstract not in the concrete.”
