Questioner: How did Allah create the first human?
Huzoor (rh): The first jinn?
Questioner: Human.
Huzoor (rh): Oh, human, human, I’m sorry. First humans were created through a long process of evolution and development. First, life was created in small form like bacteria, then plant form came into existence, then from animal life of early type was created, and gradually God gave it direction and developed it from earlier lower form to a higher form and so on and so forth, until the whole earth was filled with all sorts of life, and then one day, man was evolved from some species of, some say it was apes, some say it was some species which is lost now, and that was the parent species of humankind. But from that, a few changes were brought about by the will of God, and suddenly our ancestors who were not human beings, gave birth to human beings.
