Ugur - don't put limits on what Allah (swt) can or cannot do. When you say "no, it has to be this way" that's what you're doing. It doesn't have to be any way. Allah (swt) created the Universe. Nowhere in Islamic texts that I've read is a specific mechanism mentioned. I'm not a kaafir if I believe that Allah (swt) in his infinte wisdom and power could very easily have made life evolve. Every species is still a creation of Allah (swt), it's just a matter of how it was done.
Why do you refuse to acknowledge that darwinism and modern evolutionary theory are two different thing? One is a philosophy, one is science.
I agree with AliFazel and Khairan.

I have already explained these. Please go back and read again.
Also it is not me who is putting limits on God. It is you. You claim that God created all living things through evolution. But I look for other possibilities. He does not have to create through evolution. As in the example of the above-mentioned miracle of Jesus, he can suddenly make a bird figure into a living bird. The Qur'an makes this clear. God is not bound by laws of nature or evolutionary processes.
