Shahrur’s Claim

Shahrur links proportioning, adjustment, and rectification to the preparation of bodily structure and upright standing: “Proportioning, adjustment, and rectification: stages in preparing bodily structure and upright standing.”

What Does the Evidence Establish?

The evidence establishes that the three terms are presented together as “stages” in preparing bodily structure and upright standing. However, the statement itself does not explain the function of each term, nor does it specify a detailed order among them.

Limits of the Reading

This evidence alone should not be taken to assert gradual biological evolution or specific vital functions; such details do not appear in the available text. Nor is the location of the statement in the book indicated in the available evidence, although the statement itself is documented.
