    If it is possible for Allah to save Ibrahim from the fire, and to save Nuh from the flood and to create men and jinn from nothing, then of course he can give Adam 930 years of life and a gigantically tall stature. As for remains, have you dug up the entire Earth to find the remains of bani Adam? If I cannot find the grave of my great grandfather, does that mean he did not exist?

    بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

    This is the Book about which there is no doubt, a guidance for those conscious of Allah - (2)
    Who believe in the unseen, establish prayer, and spend out of what We have provided for them, (3)


    bro.
    The complete knowledge of unseen rests with Allah the almighty alone. Even if we dig up a recent grave you won't find any bones, even the bones disintegrate. The only bones that fossilize are the ones that are preserved by the will of Allah . Don't use science to measure Islam, because science deals with only the materialistic world and it miserably fails to deal with the unseen realm. So have faith in Allah and ignore such whispers of Shaytaan that induce doubt in our minds. Seek refuge in Allah.

    Proof from modern science is not an evidence requirement in Islamic creed.

    2+2 = 4... this what men know Because it is the limit of human knowledge
    If 2 + 2 adds an invisible matter/object with it then 2+2 = 5.

    Similarly Science, Maths, Biology are just some terms in Duniya.

    Bring all the scientist in the world, ask them the date and time the world was created. no one knows.
    Only Allah know this.

    I heard from a elder -

    Initially man used to be a gigantic figure. When prophets used to give dawah by telling the greatness of Allah, they would catch the tree and uproot it & tell that "I am powerful". Hence Allah decreased their heights.

    Allah hu Alam...

    the human population of the earth only started off with 2 people and they lived longer than today. i assume they matured and had children over a longer period of time than we do today. so the population growth was a lot slower than today.

    simply put there were a lot less humans on the earth in the time of hazrat adam (as). and not every bone gets fossilised. most disintegrate over time. so its not that there are no fossils. maybe we just have not discovered those fossils due to their rarity because of the factors mentioned above. maybe we HAVE dug out these fossils but dont recognise them as such due to their huge size.

    i hope you understand the above. im very tired and falling asleep as i write this lol

    brother i must admit this has also caused extreme problems for me. the reason why there arent any fossils is because at the time of hazrat adam a.s there were only a small number of people and thus there are only a few fossils that are deep under ground. humanity as rapidly decreased in size. even if they were discovered ( sorry for conspiracy theories) they would be supressed from the people as the western way of life and its belief of evolution would be exposed as false. so the west would never show these proof ever.

    there are videos on youtube about giants. i remember one photo where there is a scientist and he is holding a giant human thigh bone and has a drawing of a giant skelton next to him to show the size of full body.

    brother rememebr we are living in the materialistic, secualr westen societies. they like communists have fully brainwashed people that there is no god and that evolution is the real events of history. evolution never happend. but to maintain their false way of life they have brainwashed and indoctrinated people about evolution theory. they will hide and supress anything that proofs this theory false and proves gods existance.
