zlib_text: To the Reader
  A special chapter is assigned to the collapse of the theory of evolu-
  tion because this theory constitutes the basis of all anti-spiritual
  philosophies. Since Darwinism rejects the fact of creation—and there-
  fore, God's Existence—over the last 140 years it has caused many peo-
  ple to abandon their faith or fall into doubt. It is therefore an impera-
  tive service, a very important duty to show everyone that this theory
  is a deception. Since some readers may find the chance to read only one
  of our book, we think it appropriate to devote a chapter to summarize
  this subject. 
  All the author's books explain faith-related issues in light of
  Qur'anic verses, and invite readers to learn God's words and to live
  by them. All the subjects concerning God's verses are explained so as
  to leave no doubt or room for questions in the reader's mind. The
  books' sincere, plain, and fluent style ensure that everyone of every
  age and from every social group can easily understand them. Thanks
