hey you guys.

so i'm basically just wondering what muslims believe on how life started and all.

like do muslims believe that we evolved from monkeys, or any of that? and how old is the world according to the quran (or does it even say?)

most christians believe that adam and eve were the first people, and that humans did not evolve from monkeys. which makes sense if you ask me, because if humans evolved from monkeys.. well, why is there still monkeys! lol. i've heard muslims say that they don't think we evolved from monkeys and all, so i would just lke to know more..

nope .......Adam (p) was the 1st human being.......Muslims & Christians belief is same in that case :statisfie

and how old is the world according to the quran (or does it even say?)

---to my knowledge , there is no specific date mentioned in Quran.....not sure about hadith.

well, why is there still monkeys! lol.

--hehehe , i wonder , why nobody asked Darwin about this ? :D

i've heard muslims say that they don't think we evolved from monkeys and all, so i would just lke to know more..

--we believe , God created us ( human being ) as the best of His creation. So , God ordered Jinn & Angels to bow down to Adam (p) . Satan ( he was among Jinn ) refused to do so , that's why he was cursed forever.
