Is the theory of evolution in direct contradiction with Islamic teachings, or does it leave room for debate?

The theory of evolution clearly contradicts the ‘law of entropy’, where all systems tend to increase in disorder and disorganization with time.

It may be possible to get some ‘order’ in a system, but for an ‘organized’ system to come into existence there has to be consciousness, knowledge, design and planning.

After the tremendous advancements and achievements made during
the third millennium in the field of genetics, we are now in a better position
to assess the chances for macroevolution of evolution theory to have occurred
during the history of the universe.
Fine-tuning by design is an argument from physics and cosmology for the divine creation of the universe. It will be shown that discoveries of physics and cosmology in the last fifty years strongly support the existence of God and the divine creation of the universe. This article will describe the fine-tuned elegant laws of nature.
Four examples[1]
of fine-tuning are discussed: fine-tuning that allows life on planet earth,
carbon resonance, the strong nuclear force, and the ratio of the strong nuclear
force to electromagnetic force.
1. Three objections to fine-tuning are answered. 2. Why
does fine-tuning need an explanation? 3. An illustration of fine-tuning with a
universe generating machine. 4. Awe of atheists on how fine-tuned the universe
is.
Fine-tuning and design are two separate ideas. We will
discuss all possible explanations for fine-tuning and see that divine creation
is the only reasonable choice acknowledged even by some atheists.
An explanation is given of how naturalism leads to
multiverse hypothesis followed by a critique of ‘many-world’ hypothesis by top
scientists. Nevertheless, belief in many worlds does not conflict with belief
in God even if the hypothesis develops into a future theory.
Divine creation is the most compelling
explanation for fine-tuning of the universe after looking at all other possible
explanations. 2. Science is limited by its nature and thus cannot
provide definite answers. 3. Similar reflections from ancient camel
riders to modern-day thinkers tell us that the ‘evidence’ for God is equally
accessible to everyone.
A two article summary of fine-tuning by design, an argument
from physics for the divine creation of the universe. The original articles
with detailed citations can be read here. This
article will summarize the types and examples of fine-tuning.
Why does fine-tuning need an explanation? 2. What is
the most reasonable explanation of fine-tuning? 3. What about Multiverse
Hypothesis? 4. Conclusion of the argument for God’s existence by fine-tuning.
The original articles with detailed citations can be read here.
Human imagination is limited since it is based on what
it observes and experiences, and this is why our imagination cannot fully grasp
the concept that God is timeless and eternal, without beginning or end.

In Islam, reason and faith complement one another.
God
gave us a rational mind and a rational universe so that we reflect upon this
creation. This makes us appreciate God’s majesty and creative power, which
naturally leads us to knowing and affirming that He deserves to be worshipped.
