The Agenda behind some irreligious people's support for Islamic Evolutionism
Seyyid Hussein Nasr got his BS in physics from MIT and proceeded to work on the history of science.
Quote:
"[An] 'ism' of great danger to Islam... is Darwinism," said Seyyed Hossein Nasr, one of the leading Muslim thinkers of our time, in his book Islam and the Plight of Modern Man. He is certainly right. Darwinism is indeed a dangerous idea, and the reason for that is its seemingly scientific affirmation of the naturalist philosophy - the belief that nature is all there is and that life on Earth, including humans, is the product of the blind forces of nature. If one accepts that philosophy, then one will have little reason to believe in Allah, the Lord and Creator of everything.
That's why Nasr thinks that accepting the Darwinian evolution theory would be to "surrender Islam" to modern atheism. And he warns fellow Muslims against this risk as follows:
Those who think they are rendering a service to Islam by incorporating evolutionary ideas, as currently understood, into Islamic thought are, in fact, tumbling into a most dangerous pitfall and are surrendering Islam to one of modern man's most insidious pseudo-dogmas, one created in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries to enable men to forget God.

And brother Harun Yahya (Adnan Oktar) the Muslim intellectual makes his case very well too:
Quote:
Materialists Support "Religious Evolutionism" for Tactical Reasons
Indeed, evolutions know that such a "reconciliation" will be damaging to religion, and are thus trying to force certain Muslims to take that step. In order to gain the support of believers and to weaken their intellectual struggle against the theory of evolution, evolutionists are trying a different method, that of covertly supporting the idea of "evolutionary creation." Although they themselves do not believe in God, but make a divinity out of chance and are totally opposed to the truth of creation, they remain silent in the face of the idea that God created living things by means of evolution, and generally even encourage the idea, since they think that this will accelerate the acceptance of their theories.
Yet this is only a tactical move. The aim is to eliminate the objections of the devout and to impose the theory of evolution on all of society. Following the dissemination of the theory of evolution in this way, the vague interpretation of "religious evolutionism" will be done away with, to be replaced by the materialism which represents the essence of the theory of evolution. Muslims must take great care not to be taken in by this tactic and not to be a tool of this cunning strategy.
