Year: 2016
Type: dissertation
Study design: Observational Study
Abstract: indicating special creation of all species.They accommodated scientific evidence by accepting microevolution for all species.Because most respondents accepted microevolution for all species, teaching microevolution before macroevolution might be beneficial for Muslim students.Teachers helped some students navigate the relationship between science and religion to allow them to accept evolution without negating their religious beliefs.Providing role models who reconcile science and religion, Muslim evolutionary biologists, and examples of Muslim scientists from history can help accommodate acceptance of evolution by Muslims.
