6. Harun Yahya and his followers do not accept evolution as it is not clearly and explicitly described in the Qur’an. Yahya points to fossils of crabs and shrimps that are millions of years old, yet are the same as the animals we see today and that Adam was created by Allah from clay (so without parents). "God is the One Who created the heavens, the earth and what is between them in six periods.“ (Surah 32:4) Sunni belief holds that all creation was made by Allah. The length of time of the creation of the world is not clear as we can not understand time from the point of view if the creator. Animal evolution can be accepted, but humans have a soul and a relationship with Allah as his Khalifahs. Therefore they reject human evolution, firmly supporting Adamic decent
