1- Creation of Eve (Hawwa)

Why “Eve” was created from a bone?

Before answering this question, let’s review some scientific facts on adult stem cells and cloning.

[Science]

Quoted from Wikipedia - Stem cells

Stem cells are biological cells found in all multicellular organisms that can divide (through mitosis) and differentiate into diverse specialized cell types and can self-renew to produce more stem cells. In mammals, there are two broad types of stem cells: embryonic stem cells, which are isolated from the inner cell mass of blastocysts, and adult stem cells, which are found in various tissues. In adult organisms, stem cells and progenitor cells act as a repair system for the body, replenishing adult tissues. 

Stem cells can be taken from a variety of sources, including umbilical cord blood and bone marrow. Embryonic cell lines and autologous embryonic stem cells generated through therapeutic cloning have also been proposed as promising candidates for future therapies. [1]

Quoted from: Adult Stem Cells

You can think of adult stem cells as our built-in repair kits, regenerating cells damaged by disease, injury and everyday wear and tear. These undifferentiated cells reside among other differentiated cells in a tissue or organ; they divide and become specialized to repair or replace the surrounding differentiated cells. A common example of adult stem cells is hemopoietic stem cells, which are found in red bone marrow. These stem cells differentiate into various blood cells (red blood cells, lymphocytes, platelets). For example, red blood cells are not capable of reproducing and survive for about 28 days. To replace worn-out red blood cells, hemopoietic stem cells in the bone marrow divide and differentiate into new red blood cells. [2]

1-    Creation before Adam

[Quran]

There are indications in the Holy Quran, that we “Humans” are not the first creation to be on Earth, such as:

1- The following verse is talking about creation who were before us, ALLAH says:

يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ اعْبُدُواْ رَبَّكُمُ الَّذِي خَلَقَكُمْ وَالَّذِينَ مِن قَبْلِكُمْ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَتَّقُونَ

O people, worship your Lord who created you and those before you, so that you may become God-fearing (2:21)

The speech is talking to people “Mankind” to worship God who created us and those who were before us !!

[Science]

Quote from: The uterus

The uterus is made up of three layers:
 
The inner layer is the endometrium. This is the inside mucus lining of the uterus where the placenta attaches.

The middle layer is made of different types of muscles, collectively called the myometrium. During pregnancy these muscle cells grow ten times in length and three times in width. Some of these muscles run lengthwise from the cervix, over the top of the uterus (also called the fundus) back down to the cervix on the other side. They contract and shorten during labour, pulling up the cervix and pushing your baby down the birth canal.

The outer layer is the perimetrium. A fine outer layer separating the uterus from the intestines. [1]

Quoted from: Adrenal Glands:

In mammals, the adrenal glands (also known as suprarenal glands) are endocrine glands that sit atop the kidneys; in humans, the right suprarenal gland is triangular shaped, while the left suprarenal gland is semilunar shaped. They are chiefly responsible for releasing hormones in response to stress through the synthesis of corticosteroids such as cortisol and catecholamines such as epinephrine. The adrenal glands affect kidney function through the secretion of aldosterone, a hormone involved in regulating the osmolarity of blood plasma. [1]

1.    Creation Miracles

Too many Atheists insist on asking for a miracle so they might believe, although it’s in God’s hands only so they believe, but there is a daily miracle that happens almost billions of times every day in front of us without noticing.

This miracle is mentioned in the following verse:

ان الله فالق الحب والنوى يخرج الحي من الميت ومخرج الميت من الحي ذلكم الله فانى تؤفكون

Verily! It is Allâh Who causes the seed-grain and the fruit-stone (like date-stone) to split and sprout. He brings forth the living from the dead, and it is He Who brings forth the dead from the living. Such is Allâh, then how are you deluded away from the truth? (6:95)

As example of this miracle, is the Chicken which is the living thing delivering the Egg, which is the dead thing, and then the Egg break into a little chick which is the living thing again. Knowing the Egg is a small container of Carbohydrates, Fat, Protein, water, Vitamins and Minerals. [1]

1.    Ungulate (Mammals  Division)

[Science]

Quoted from Wikipedia - Ungulate

Perissodactyla and Artiodactyla comprise the largest portion of ungulates, and also include the majority of large land mammals. These two groups first appeared during the late Paleocene and early Eocene (about 54 million years ago), rapidly spreading to a wide variety of species on numerous continents, and have developed in parallel since that time.[1]

Quoted from: Exploring Family Tree - Uncovering ungulate taxonomy

All ungulates are mammals (Class Mammalia) - a group of warm-blooded (endothermic) animals with backbones. Taxonomically, mammals are animals (Kingdom Animalia) and belong to the Phylum Chordata, Subphylum Vertebrata. Mammals can be distinguished from other animals by the presence of milk-producing skin glands - these mammary glands, for which the Class Mammalia is named, are found in every mammal and nowhere else in the Animal Kingdom. Many other characters are used to diagnose mammals, including the presence of hair, three middle ear bones, and a four-chambered heart.

The easiest way to distinguish the two types of ungulates is to look at their feet (and hooves): Perissodactyls (generally) have an odd number of toes on each foot, while "artiodactyls" (the ungulates within Cetartiodactyla) usually possess an even number of toes on each foot. Despite the even-odd differentiation, there are exceptions to the rule: for instance, both tapirs (Perissodactyla: Tapiridae) and some peccaries (Cetartiodactyla: Tayassuidae) have four toes (and hooves) on their front feet, and three on the rear.

1.    Animal Evolution

[Science]

Quoted from: Plant and Animal Evolution

All animals and plants are classified as multicellular eukaryotes: their bodies are made up of large numbers of cells, and microscopic inspection of these cells reveals that they contain a nucleus and a number of other organelles. Compared to prokaryotic organisms such as bacteria, plants and animals have a relatively recent evolutionary origin.

Like the plants, animals evolved in the sea. And that is where they remained for at least 600 million years. This is because, in the absence of a protective ozone layer, the land was bathed in lethal levels of UV radiation. Once photosynthesis had raised atmospheric oxygen levels high enough, the ozone layer formed, meaning that it was then possible for living things to venture onto the land.

Recently many scientists have begun to question whether the Cambrian explosion was a real event, or a reflection of the patchiness of this ancient fossil record. Genetic data suggest that multicellular animals evolved around 1000 million years ago; this is supported by fossil embryos from rocks in China that date back 600 million years. These embryos are more complex than those of simple organisms such as sponges and jellyfish, which suggests that multicellular animals must have evolved much further back in time. In addition, trilobites were a very diverse group even early in the Cambrian, and some scientists suggest that this indicates that the arthropod group must have had a much earlier evolutionary origin. [1]


[Quran]

There are 3 verses that indicate to Animal Evolution in the Holy Quran:

My Lord!! Truly these are People who will not believe…

(From my debate papers with atheists)..

There is always a strange thing when debating with Atheists and Infidels on their forums, I face it always almost in every session, as if it’s a common attribute between them all.

It’s is the sense of happiness and sarcasm that Atheists have !!

You never debate with them over religion unless they convert the whole issue to a party of Jokes and comic expressions, you feel they never take it serious ever..

Sometimes, they become more angry if you show them some of God's signs in his book or in the world around us, they become more tough and use much bad words especially with God..

They say they don’t hate you, but they hated God (Allah forgives me for saying this..)

As if God has a fight with them..

As if God had created them monkeys or with less hand or leg or eye or ear or missing organ in their body..

I don’t understand WHY such hatred against God and against the believers too.

And in case you quoted a verse from the holy books (Quran or Bible or Torah), they explode, warnings start to comes over your head, and they start squeezing you, till they ban your comments or moderate them, or stop your participation in their forum and kick you out eventually.

WHY are they so happy ?!

1- Plants Evolution

[Science]

Evolution of Plants: The chloroplasts of green plants are surrounded by two membranes, supporting the theory of an endosymbiotic, cyanobacteria common ancestor. Embryophytes descended from green algae during the Palaeozoic era, and are also called the land plants (though some live in water) and include all the trees, flowers, ferns, mosses with which we are all familiar. All are complex multicellular organisms with specialized reproductive organs and, with rare exception, use photosynthesis for their energy.

For some 1.5 billion years, photosynthetic organisms remained in the sea, protected from ultraviolent radiation. The earliest photosynthetic organisms to invade land probably resembled modern algae, cyanobacteria, and lichens, and were followed by the bryophyte, including liverworts & mosses that descended from the charophyte group of green algae. [1]

[Quran]

As explained in part 3, in Universe creation, that on 4th day, God planned the sustenance for Earth dwellers and then he rose to the universe while it was still smoke and created the 7 heavens, ALLAH says:
وجعل فيها رواسي من فوقها وبارك فيها وقدر فيها اقواتها في اربعة ايام سواء للسائلين

He placed therein (i.e. the earth) firm mountains from above it, and He blessed it, and measured (Kaddar) therein its sustenance (for its dwellers) in four Days equal, for all those who ask (about its creation). (41:10)

What brought us here?


1st Scene: Time: Day of Judgment, Place: the gathering field for all nations…

The long and horrible time of Day of Judgment is almost ended…

The Believers are seen far away and high from the gathering field, they are full of joy, happiness and satisfied with their families and children, they are already gathered, shining with heavenly light, surrounded by the Angels and led to the way of paradise, some are already therein and checking their new and fabulous houses and lands.

But, the infidels are chained in groups and they are pushed, kicked and thrown one after another into Hell.

But, there is still one question that is circling in Atheists’ heads in such terrifying time !!

WHY??

Why it’s happening to us? What brought us into here?

To hell; the ultimate pain and infinite torment…

We were the smarter in life, the most educated and most sophisticated..
How we couldn’t figure it out by ourselves…

How come that weaker people than us and ordinary persons were able to survive and saved themselves but we failed..

They reached the hell cliff and it’s time to be thrown in..

1. Source of Water on Earth

[Science]

Quoted from: Wikipedia - Origin of Water on Earth

The question of the origin of water on Earth, or the question of why there is clearly more water on the Earth than on the other planets of the Solar System, has not been clarified. There are several acknowledged theories as to how the world's oceans were formed over the past 4.6 billion years.

Origins

Some of the most likely contributory factors to the origin of the Earth's oceans are as follows:

1.    The cooling of the primordial Earth to the point where the outgassed volatile components were held in an atmosphere of sufficient pressure for the stabilization and retention of liquid water.
2.    Comets, trans-Neptunian objects or water-rich meteorites (protoplanets) from the outer reaches of the main asteroid belt colliding with the Earth may have brought water to the world's oceans. Measurements of the ratio of the hydrogen isotopes deuterium and protium point to asteroids, since similar percentage impurities in carbon-rich chondrites were found to oceanic water, whereas previous measurement of the isotopes' concentrations in comets and trans-Neptunian objects correspond only slightly to water on the earth.
3.    Biochemically through mineralization and photosynthesis.
4.    Gradual leakage of water stored in hydrous minerals of the Earth's rocks.
5.    Photolysis: radiation can break down chemical bonds on the surface. [1]
