Everything thats exists...Allah created.

There is objective evidence that dinosaurs existed.

Just because the Quran does not mention them by name..does not mean they did not exist.



"Has there not been over Man a long period of Time, when he was nothing - (not even) mentioned?" [76:1]



Even the time frame fits.

Dinosaurs do not contradict Islam at all.

Thats an interesting question. The Quran does mentions Allah's creatures during the time of Adam and Eve, but who knows what all those creatures where? However, i doubt they were dinosaurs. Most likely they were larger versions on animals today. Because Islam teaches that during the time of Adam and Eve, the people were giants. So does large fossils they find in my opinion is giant animals of the past.

Assalmalaikum



Dear Sister in faith and humanity



I am sorry but Quran is not a book of science although Allah has given much scientific details in it. In the case of dinosaurs, there is no human account of there presence and it can only be proved from construction of there bones/fossils.



Even if you beleive in dinosaur or dont beleive in it, it makes no difference as it was past. What we need to really worry about is the future.



Quran [39:55] "And follow the Best of (the courses) revealed to you from your Lord, before the Penalty comes on you - of a sudden while you perceive not!



[Quran 61:10] O you who believe! Shall I lead you to a bargain that will save you from a grievous Penalty?



[Quran 61:11] That you believe in Allah and His Messenger, and that you strive (your utmost) in the Cause of Allah, with your property and your persons: That will be best for you, if you but knew!



[Quran 61:12] He will forgive you your sins, and admit you to Gardens beneath which Rivers flow, and to beautiful mansions in Gardens of Eternity: that is indeed the Supreme Achievement.



[Quran 61:13] And another (favour will He bestow,) which you do love,- help from Allah and a speedy victory. So give the Glad Tidings to the Believers.



hope this answers ur question.

Allah said in Qur'an that all the wild beasts will be gathered on the day of judgment , but the verse didn't specifically mention Dinosaurs.



Qur'an [81:5]

And when the wild beasts are gathered.

The Quran does not specifically speak to dinosaurs, but it generally does, to the changing and growing forms of animals.

there were jins living here on earth before humans and creatures.

(29) And when thy Lord said unto the angels: Lo! I am about to place a viceroy in the earth, they said: Wilt thou place therein one who will do harm therein and will shed blood, while we, we hymn Thy praise and sanctify Thee? He said: Surely I know that which ye know not.



the angels didnt know that the viceroy is human beings and angels thought it was the jins that Allah want to make viceroy on earth and jins are who spread harm on earht before humans. so there were creatures before the first human being was created maybe including dinosors and propably they drowned in Noahs era who knows!!. read Qur'an and there will be no question left in your mind.

There were creatures present in the world before Adam and Eve. They become extinct before the coming of Adam and Eve.
