I'm very confused about this, but I have a question: why are Muslims against evolution?
If we look at the studies of DNA and human ancestory; it actually points very clearly to a "common ancestor" that would make the story of Adam & Eve even more probable; it also points to "other creatures" that share human traits like the infamous "gog and magog", arent's chimps our brothers?.
Without DNA and DNA studies; these stories about "Adam and Eve, gog and magog" would be mere ink on paper. Evolution actually supports religions like Islam; not going against it.
One important stop we can stop at, is the time humanity lost its "skin cover" after eating from a mysterious fruit; mentioned in the Quran:
We know that certain diets cause mutations to human genes as the time goes by. In fact even skin color is subject to the constraints of the diet. You can lose your hair if your diet dictated so; and Adam & Eve both lost their cover when their diet included the forbidden fruit.
Now science proved this could easily happen.
The question still stands: what's wrong in saying that God's hands are -just like God himself- are not visible to us? and that evolution is the way he used to shape humanity and shape its genome?
The accuracy of God can be seen in the few differences between us and Chimps.

Quote:Sura 20, The Quran:
Sahih International
(121) And Adam and his wife ate of it, and their private parts became apparent to them, and they began to fasten over themselves from the leaves of Paradise. And Adam disobeyed his Lord and erred.
