Human family
tree is related to Darwin ‘s theory regarding the evolution of human. In this
case, Darwin believed that human evolved from the apes million years ago.
However, Darwin theory was still debated over its factuality. The missing links
of this theory was still unfounded. Speaking from Islam perspective, I strongly
rejected this theory since we undoubtly believe that Prophet Adam A.S was the
first human created by God. Not to mention that the Darwin ‘s theory clearly
rejected the existence of God.
The first
group of human species according to Darwin ‘s theory is Ardipithecus that lived around 6 million
years ago – 4 million years ago. Ardipithecus is the earliest humans that has
nearest connection to other primates. They evolved in Africa and took the first
steps toward walking upright. Some of the species are Sahelanthropus
tchadensis, Orrorin tugenensis, Ardipithecus kadabba and Ardipithecus ramidus. This
species could be considered as two-legged species and stood upright on the
ground but could move on all four limbs in trees. Features of the anatomy are
highly primitive.
