Explanation:  Contrary to the theory of creationism, according to which everything is created in the beginning as it is created and the characteristics of animals, plants and humans are the same from the beginning, Darwin's theory of evolution speaks of the gradual development of the qualities necessary for survival. Thus, according to the theory of creationism, the Earth is not very old, at least not as much as was necessary to justify Darwin's evolution. The changes described by Darwin take millions of years, so the theory that the Earth is very old is quite in favour.

the arab empire adopted the muslim religion as their main belief. arabs would influence the people from the territories they invaded towards islam (the muslim belief).

nevertheless, throughout the history of the arab empire, rulers brought intellectual individuals from other religions to their centers of learning. these other foreigners included jews, christians, greeks, persians, and indians.   these resulted in the adoption of important knowledge developed by these cultures by the arabic empire. for example, the works of aristotle were translated from greek to arab and indian scientists brought the numerical concept of "zero" to the arabs.

nowadays, 93% of the arab population is muslim, which at the same time is subdivided in sects including the sunni, zaini, alawi, shia. the remaining 7% is composed mainly of christians.
