In this clip from a Harun Yahya video, an unnamed Turkish woman discusses the 1952 experiment run by Harold Urey and Stanley Miller at the University of Chicago, which she describes as “fake”.  She discusses problems that she sees in the experiment’s results and methodology.  The experiment speaks to whether or how the building blocks of life could have arisen on the primordial earth.

For more on the Miller-Urey experiment, see this article or this short video.

There is no additional information about when or where this video was created.

Evaluation:

The material on Islam is within the bounds of what Muslims have historically understood as acceptable.

The presentation of science here is highly polemical (“make-believe”, “lies”).  The science presented here is from the 1950s; scholars have moved the discussion past this experiment.  See here for a discussion.  In addition, discussions about the chemical origins of life are not, strictly speaking, about evolution.

There is insufficient historical material upon which to base an evaluation.
