The questioner:
He started talking about the theory of the Jewish Darwin, which says that
man from an extractالْإِنسَانَ مِن سُلَالَةٍ
[Al-Mu'minun 23:12]
ape, and continues its development until it reaches what it is now?

The Shaykh:
This is a vile position; this is a false position. Allah created man in his state as a human being, from the time Allah created Adam, a human being with hearing, sight, speech, and intellect. From the time Allah created Adam, we are his descendants. The ape is another nation; the ape is another nation, standing on its own. Apes are a nation, dogs are a nation, donkeys are a nation, lions are a nation, wolves are a nation, and light is a nation. All these are nations created by Allah (Mighty and Majestic).

The questioner:
The last one is removed.

The Shaykh:
Describing a human as an ape is a false statement. And whoever says this is a disbeliever, unless he repents, otherwise he is a disbeliever. Yes.
