In an article in the September 2004 issue, "Miracles in the Eye," Harun Yahya wrote:

Consider the description of "coincidence" suggested by the evolutionists:

How come the eyes are coincidentally formed in a living being that previously did not have an eye? Could the two eye-sockets appropriate to fit the eye be formed in the skull coincidentally? Could two light-transferring spheres full of liquid be formed in those eye sockets "coincidentally"? Could these two lenses that qrovide the fraction of light and focus the light at the back wall of the eye be formed coincidentally?

Could the eye muscles that provide the movements of the eyes be formed on their own? Could the retina layer that would perceive the light at the back wall of the eye be coincidentally formed? Could the nerves that would connect the eyes to the brain be formed all of a sudden on their own?

And after all these, could the tear glands that prevent dryness of the eyes be formed by coincidences? And could the two eyelids and the eyelashes that protect the eyes from dust and similar foreign materials be formed coincidentally?

The common answer to all these questions is absolutely: "No!" Even Darwin himself confessed this reality.

Some extracts from this interview read as follows:

Ever since childhood I have thought that the existence of Allah, the moral virtues revealed in the Qur'an and the Hereafter need to be explained to people. For that reason I learned about the history of Islam and the life and Sunnah of our Prophet (saas), carefully studied the valuable works of great Islamic scholars, and began telling people what I knew.

Like everything that befalls us, prison life is a test created by Allah, and is a pleasure and a delight.

It is impossible for anyone to harm anyone else outside Allah's control. It is therefore Allah Who puts one in prison, and Allah who frees one.

I believe telling people that Darwinism is a grave deception is a duty incumbent upon every Muslim.

My intellectual struggle against Darwinism is made possible by the will and inspiration of Allah. That is why I think that the first stage in the eradication of atheism from the world and its replacement with the moral virtues of the Qur'an must be the elimination of the intellectual basis of atheism. Allah showed me this, inspired it in me… This intellectual struggle that has been going on for some 20 years has allowed us to obtain the most excellent results… With the collapse of these heretical ideologies, people have begun turning to Allah and the true faith. This is a major historic development.

It is very important for believers to unite if evil and those who commit evil are to be intellectually eliminated and for the alliance of the wicked to be shattered. It must not be forgotten that Almighty Allah is the greatest helper and supporter of those who struggle to disseminate the moral virtues of Islam. Muslims will be rewarded for these efforts by being raised in the sight of Allah. Allah bestows a delightful, peaceful and easy life in this world on the righteous.

Impact International, an independent magazine published in eighteen Western and Asian countries such as USA, Great Britain, Canada, Germany, Kuwait, Pakistan, India, Mauritius and Sri Lanka, has a readership in excess of 100,000. In its May 2001 issue, it published "The Kosovo-Serbia-Macedonia Triangle," an analysis of the recent developments in the Balkans.

In the August 2000 issue, it carried "Common Material, Design, and Designer" which discussed the latest developments in the Human Genome Project. The following important extracts are taken from that article:

The recent completion of the human gene map within the scope of the Human Genome Project is an important scientific improvement. However, some results of this project are being distorted in some evolutionist publications. It is claimed that the genes of chimpanzees are 98% similar to human genes, and this is presented as an evidence for the claim that apes are close to humans, and therefore, logical ancestors of humans as claimed by Darwin's theory of evolution. The argument is misleading.

The claim of 98% similarity is deceptive. To claim that the genetic make-ups of man and chimpanzee bear 98% similarity to each other, the genome of the chimpanzee also has to be mapped just as that of man and the two have to be compared. No such result for the chimpanzee has been done yet.
