Belief in evolution is a form of apostasy for a Muslim since it directly conflicts and denies what has been told to us in the Quran and the verifying Hadiths.
(Al-Imran 3: 59) " The similitude of Jesus before Allah is as that of Adam; He created him from dust, then said to him: "Be". And he was."
This tells us that Adam was directly produced from clay (earth) and was not born to a father and a mother.
Some important hadiths to further clarify the matter and put it to rest.
Abu Musa narrated that the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) said: "Allah created Adam from a handful of dust taken from different lands, so the children of Adam have been created according to the composition of the land. Therefore from mankind we have white, red, black and yellow ones; we have good and evil, ease and sorrow, and what comes in between them."
Abu Hurairah narrated that the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) said: "Allah created Adam from dust after He mixed the clay and left him for some time until it became sticky mud, after which Allah shaped him. After that Allah left him till it became like potter's clay. Iblis used to go past him saying 'You have been created for a great purpose.' After that Allah breathed His spirit into him. The first thing into which the spirit passed was his eye and then his nose. He sneezed. Allah said: "May your Lord have mercy upon you, O Adam! Go to those angels and see what they would say.' So Adam went and greeted them. they replied saying: "Peace be upon you and the mercy and blessings of Allah." Allah said: "O Adam! This is your greeting and that of your offspring."
