so it simply implies that dinosaurs were extinct before the mankind. It's just an implication though the quran never mentions it explicitly. well I do know that the age of the earth according to the quran is around 300000 years(sura 70:4). correct me if i'm wrong. when man was created you don;t really know for sure.

To someone else who asked me whether this discussion is relevant. Well as far as I am concerned. for me it is relevant. As I mentioned on my forst post. I want to know what you guys exactly believe on how and why you think. so that I can understand you better. it gives me every right to question any how I want to question and what I want to know from you. it is very diificult for me to look at your religous text objectively which is why i am seeking ur help.

So back to this discussion it's about dinosaurs, mankind and age of the earth?
