| Abstract | ||
| Since its publication in (1859), the Evolution Theory has raised controversid opinions between the religions, and even sciences. Most of the Holy Texts concerning both Islam and Christianity provide several verses regarding how humankind was created. It was not an act of nature; it was an act of Allah (God). Man did not evolve by chance; he was created by Allah for a specific purpose. As a result of Darwinism, and with the passage of time, a new phenomenon emerged and became very popular these days, i.e. Atheism. Accordingly, Darwinism took a turning point, and thus Evolution is no longer the core issue. Yet, it is the one that should be dealt with, for. Atheism cannot be confuted unless Darwinism is refuted first. This cannot be done without the help of Translation. Nevertheless, translation had a foremost part in the convergence of religions and in debating skeptics. For it will help the guardians, for each one of them, regardless of his religion and language, will be equipped with Holy verses and their counterparts in the other religion and language. Thus, he/she will be able to debate those Atheists on a solid ground. | ||
