Age Of Humanity
In the Bible, there is history written by Jewish scribes. When people calculated that history (assuming that history to be divinely inspired in their belief), the number added up to 6000 as the age of the entire universe (not just human). However, Qur’an and any divine scripture (like Torah, Zaboor, Injeel that is inside the Bible alongside other history written by man) do not mention an exact age for humans. Qur’an describes eras though. Pre-Ancient Era where Hazrat Adam (PBUH) was created, mankind followed one religion. Then division happened and prophets were sent to each nation including Hazrat Nuh (PBUH). Then came the Ancient History which involved Hazrat Ibrahim (PBUH) and his children like Israelite making a nation of God (in around 1500-1200 BC) in sacred land of Jerusalem and spreading His message as a nation, this ends with Hazrat Isa (PBUH) when they rejected him and God strips off the chosen title from Israelite. Then came Historical era where events were written down clearly and Prophet (PBUH) came as the last prophet, created second nation of God in Arabia Peninsula which is now 1400 years old starting from the 600~ AD era. According to science, human had culture and speech 50,000 years ago. There is also a recent discovery of human speaking a language 2-3 million years ago and burying their dead. It is hard to pinpoint when Hazrat Adam (PBUH) or Hazrat Nuh (PBUH) was born or what is the age of humans when Allah gave them a soul. Science at best can figure out the age of human-like beast which we evolved from so do not confuse that with age of insaan. 0:00 – 2:10 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g1KDJokqDE4
