When an eclipse happens does the world suddenly set their clocks to the PM setting?
That's what humans do. Quran says that the moon cannot catch up to the sun. Eclipses prove this wrong.
You
ACTUALLY set your clock to PM when there's a solar eclipse at 8:00am?
I'm going to give you a chance to take that back and think about the question some more.
How does 6 months of this followed by 6 months of that imply "outstripping?"
So what would imply outsripping of night over day?
That the average earth revolution actually was reduced to only 12 hours instead of 24, because day and night are now occupied inside of the same time period.
THAT'S outstripping... the day and night actually caught up to each other.
I feel that since the sun serves as nothing more than a marker of time for those events, the people should... using basic common sense... use whatever other reliable time piece their unusual circumstances called for.
Don't be naive. The timings of the namaz are completely dependent on the timings of sun, fajar is before sunrise, maghrib just before sunset, isha after sunset, etc. Why did Allah not mention anything for people living on the north pole if islam is indeed a divine religion meant for everyone in the world?
The sun only functions as a marker of time to space the salats throughout the day with. If you live in a part of the world where you cannot use the sun in that matter, use some other reliable method. I'm SURE the people who live in those parts of the world understand their peculiar circumstances and can figure it out. If you can survive in -500 degree weather you can friggin' figure out when to pray. Sheesh...
I believe the controversy involving the DNA strand (I knew I was forgetting something) demonstrates the highest evidence against The Theory of Evolution as understood to mean that everything on earth now evolved from lower, primitive versions of the same all the way back to simple cells in an ancient, fetid pool.
Quite surprising since we have thousands of fossil evidence supporting Evolution...
There is also thousands of fossil evidence supporting completely different theories as well. Check out
Forbidden Archaeology by Michael Cremo and Richard Thompson to see what I mean.
a controversy about a particular detail cannot just negate all of the overwhelming evidence supporting Evolution.
I didn't say it was the only evidence; I said "highest."
