    Islam, like many other religious beliefs, does not specifically address the existence of dinosaurs in its religious texts. The Quran, the holy book of Islam, does not mention dinosaurs explicitly. However, Islamic scholars and theologians often interpret the Quran in light of scientific discoveries.Most Muslims accept the scientific evidence that supports the existence of dinosaurs millions of years ago, as this is consistent with the findings of paleontology and geology. They generally see no conflict between the existence of dinosaurs and their faith, as they believe that science and religion can coexist harmoniously.It’s essential to note that different individuals and Islamic scholars may have varying interpretations and views on this matter, but the majority of Muslims do not see the existence of dinosaurs as incompatible with their faith.
