Given The
Reasons Made By Dr Silver And The Inability Of Evolutionary Scientists To
Refute Them, Are Evolutionist Theories No Longer True?
Main
Points
1. The life
started elsewhere theory by Dr Ellis Silver gained credence recently.
2. By
mentioning a number of physiological traits, Dr. Ellis Silver makes the case in
this book that humans did not evolve alongside other life on Earth.
3. Scientist
has confirmed that humans are not originally from the Earth. Is this statement
true, and is it described in all the heavenly books of God Almighty in a
similar or slightly different fashion?
4. As Muslims,
we can understand that Paradise was the original home of the first human being
as described in the Holy Quran. Allah Almighty sent Hazrat Adam to Earth planet
after he was lured by Satan and made an ijtihadi error.
5. This raises
a question of whether science is advancing to the point where it will
eventually accept the fact mentioned in the holy book of Allah.
6. The more
science develops; do Scientists have to prove all the Prophets said to their
separate generations?

The book
"Humans are Not from Earth" by Dr. Ellis Silver has recently grown in
reputation as the pinnacle of contemporary science. In this book, the data is
evaluated scientifically, including an analysis of the 13 most prevalent
theories and 17 pieces of evidence that humans are not originally from Earth.
This book addresses a number of queries. For example, how did we come here?
When did we get here? What best describes our planet? Are we aliens? Dr. Ellis
Silver covers all of these queries in this intriguing book and offers solutions
based on the most recent findings and theories, making it a scientific marvel.
In this
book, Dr. Ellis Silver makes the astounding statement that human was not born
on Earth; rather, he was originally developed on another planet and for some
reason flung to their current planet Earth.
Have a look
at what renowned American ecologist Dr. Ellis, a scientist, researcher, and
author, has to say in his book. Remember that a scientist who does not practise
any religion is speaking here.
He asserts
that the planet where he had been living and the initial habitat in which he
had been created were both environments that may be referred to as VVIPs, where
Man had previously lived in a highly benign atmosphere. He was an extremely
gorgeous creature that lived in such opulence, and his sensitive nature and
laid-back demeanour suggest that he inhabited a fragile environment. He didn't
have to work to make a living either. Instead of being frigid and scorching,
the weather was more like spring. It was completely free of the terrible and
painful ultraviolet radiation and harsh sunshine from a deadly star like the
Sun.
Then something
wrong happened to this human being.
Due to some
‘error’, he was expelled from this cosy and opulent setting. An extremely
strong Being who ruled the system of planets and stars under His control seems
to have banished humans from this planet. He had the power to punish or reward
anyone by sending them to any planet he chose. He had the capacity to make
creatures as well.
According
to Dr. Silver, it's plausible that the Earth formerly resembled something akin
to a prison where only criminals are sent as punishment because the earth's
form resembles some kind of galactic prison. The man may have been sent to a
location that takes the shape of a patch of land surrounded by ocean. He says,
“The Earth might be a prison planet since we seem to be a naturally violent
species and we are here until we learn to behave ourselves”.
Being a
scientist, Dr. Silver holds off making decisions until he has gathered the
results of observations. Several scientific arguments made in his work cannot
be disputed.
-----------------------------------------------
Also Read: Al-Insan or The Man
-----------------------------------------------
The underlying
principles of his theories have some factual backing:
First, the
gravitational pull of the environment from which man developed is substantially
dissimilar from that of the earth. It was fairly simple for him to walk, carry
objects, and carry out other tasks because the planet where man first
originated had a gravity that was substantially lower than the gravity of the
Earth. He says that in humans, back pain is a common complaint because of high
gravity.
Second, no
other creature that inhabits the earth has as many chronic diseases as do
humans. If you can show me one human on this earth who does not have a single
disease, Dr. Ellis says “I might withdraw my statement”. He asserts that he can
provide information about any animal that has not caught an illness, with the
exception of temporary diseases.
Third,
unlike animals, humans cannot endure prolonged exposure to the sun without
feeling dizzy and perhaps developing sunstroke. The animals spend months in the
sun without developing skin problems or other diseases associated with
prolonged exposure to the strong rays of the sun.
Fourth,
every human has the persistent feeling as though the earth is not their
original home. He periodically has the sudden sorrow of a foreigner even when
he is at house among his closest blood relatives.
Fifth,
every second, all living creatures on Earth, with the exception of humans, have
their body temperatures automatically regulated. For example, if the sun is
bright and powerful, their body temperatures will be regulated; but if there
are clouds, the shade will cause them to adjust their body temperatures. Unlike
other creatures, humans don't have this mechanism. Instead, when the climate
and environment change, humans will start getting sick. That is why seasonal
fever only affects humans.
Sixth,
humans are extremely distinct from other species of life on Earth. Their genes
and DNA are substantially different from those of other Earthly living
creatures.
Seventh,
the original inhabitants of the earth, animals, do not have any difficulty
getting their food and eating it; they do it immediately, whereas humans must
exert a lot of work just to consume a small portion of their food. It also
demonstrates that man is not originally an earthly inhabitant since food must
first be cooked and softened before it can be consumed according to his stomach
and physique. Humans didn't have to cook when they were on their home planet
because they used everything straight for ingestion.
Moreover,
Man is the only creature that can walk on two legs, making him an alien in this
habitat.
Eighth, the
original inhabitants of the earth, namely the animals, do not require a bed as
comfortable as a human does in order to sleep on the earth. There is evidence
that man's original habitat was exceedingly soft and fragile, in keeping with
the delicate nature of his body.
Ninth, Man
is entirely unique from all other creatures; therefore he is not an evolved
version of any animal (such as a monkey or chimpanzee) but rather was brought
to the earth by someone else from another planet.
Earth-like
pollution was not present on the first planet where humans were originally
born. His supple, delicate skin, which the sun on Earth darkens, was perfectly
suited to the planet where he was originally born. He was so delicate that even
after coming to Earth, he kept trying to fit the world into his delicate
nature. Just like he used to rest in a magnificent and lavish bed in his home
world, he is still making an effort to live as comfortably as he can here on
Earth. He continues to make an effort to build the magnificent, priceless, and
sturdy castles and homes that his parents had there on their home planet.
Animals and
other species, on the other hand, lack this sort of deeply entrenched
behaviour. The native animals of our planet, which lack brains and are
accustomed to third-class living, are unable to think clearly, live healthily,
or coexist peacefully. After seeing these beasts, man developed a bloodlust. In
contrast to his original origins, which were in love, the arts, and serene and
pleasant life, he has subsequently transformed into a prisoner who was punished
by being transferred to a third-class planet and will return once his sentence
is finished.
According
to Dr. Silver, the intelligence and growth of humans indicate that the parents
of this human arrived on Earth from their planet not very long ago. There must
have just been a few thousand years. Humans make an effort to produce luxury
similar to that on their home planet; occasionally, they develop automobiles
and cell phones. If humanity had been on this planet for millions of years, the
technology we see today would have existed thousands of years ago because we
are not so worthless that even after millions of years; we still live a life of
misery and pity like animals.
The book by
Dr. Ellis Silver has a lot to say about this issue. The fact that no one has
been able to challenge his assertions to date is the finest part.
We can
consider the scientifically supported ideas and arguments put out by Dr.
Silver. The fact that Humans are not from the Earth is being told by a
scientist; it is not fiction but rather a true account that is described
somewhat in the same manner or with minor variations in all heavenly books of
God Almighty. Although you are all familiar with the true tale of your father
Adam and Eve, I won't go into great length about it. Science is getting closer
to recognising the proofs mentioned in the holy book of Allah the more advanced
it becomes. Scientists are compelled to confirm all that the Prophets told
their respective generations.
The ideas
of evolution are no longer valid for the reasons presented by Dr. Silver. Human
thought is currently being corrected in certain ways. The earth is not where
people first appeared. This is not what we are here to express. But Allah the
Almighty has told us repeatedly in His holy book and through the beloved
Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) that this worldly life is a
place of trial for us, from which we shall be rewarded in accordance with our
deeds.
As Muslims,
we can understand that Paradise was the original home of the first human being
as described in the Holy Quran. Every blessing there was intended for him. But,
there was only one requirement in return—obedience to Allah Almighty. The human
being was also not going to face a significant test; it was merely suggested
that he be cautioned about the trickery of Satan. This was because Satan
thought of man as his perpetual enemy. After worshipping Allah Almighty for
more than 600,000 years, Satan became the devil because he refused to perform
even a single prostration in accordance with a divine mandate.
Hazrat Adam
was warned that he must stay away from the tree in order to avoid the satanic
deception and merely pray for his Lord's mercy. He was warned that the devil
will lure him astray using trickery and a variety of false pretences. Satan
worked hard to sway Hazrat Adam away from the right path. When Satan realised
how difficult it was to tempt Hazrat Adam, he deceived Hazrat Hawwa [aka Eve]
into thinking that he and Hazrat Adam would need to taste the fruit of this
tree in order to acquire eternal life. Satan responded to Hazrat Hawwa's
question by saying that they have been forbidden from eating the fruit of this
tree as a result, lest they obtain eternal life.
Satan’s
action had an impact on Hazrat Hawwa. Hazrat Hawwa urged Hazrat Adam to go, see
and eat from this tree. The price of this exchange is the gift of eternal life,
which we will obtain if we simply consume it once. Hazrat Hawwa was created
from Hazrat Adam's left rib. Love for the fairer gender comes naturally because
the heart is also on the left side of the body. Allah made Hazrat Eve
specifically for Hazrat Adam, according to the Holy Quran. On the advice of
Hazrat Hawwa, when Hazrat Adam ate the fruit from the forbidden tree and gave
it to her, it was as if they were receiving Allah's displeasure. Allah Most
High sent them to the earth. The comforts they shared in heaven were not
available to them here.
We must
draw the conclusion that Islam is a reality that is supported by progressive
science if the results of Dr. Ellis Silver's research are added to the fact
contained in the holy Quran. Hazrat Adam, the first man to walk on the Earth,
wasn't originally from Earth; he was brought here from Paradise. This runs
counter to the evolutionary theory that humans evolved over time. Parallel to
this, if we take into account Dr. Ellis' second point—that this world is analogous
to a galactic jail; we can see that the Islamic perspective acknowledges that
Hazrat Adam (peace be upon him) made an Ijtihadi mistake that resulted in his
exile from heaven to Earth. The Quran continuously commands humans to ponder
and observe, and as a result, mysteries beyond human comprehension are being
revealed day by day, despite the materialistic viewpoints of some people.
