Why did dinosaurs exist on the Earth Islamically speaking?

Islam does not deny that these creatures existed or that they were of this great size, but the fact remains that when they speak of their lifespans and the details of their forms and lives, this is the field of science and speculation combined. The Muslim should not be preoccupied with that and he should not waste time discussing it or believe that it is a matter that has any impact on his religious commitment or belief, because he knows that the Qur’aan and Sunnah were revealed to guide people and show them the right way; their focus is not history, geography, earth science or biology, although they indicate many facts that have to do with these fields. There are some kinds of animals that are not mentioned in Qur’aan and Sunnah at all, even though they existed at the time the Qur’aan was revealed.

And Allah knows best.

Reflection is part of Islam. If anything, this blind follow thee non sense is the reason why our true Muslim countries are a mess.

They existed to be able to offer you the foundation to build human life.

Islam came after most religions and we know Allah isn’t a islam only concept.

Why did any animals exist??? What??? Am i misunderstanding the question?

Because Allah does as He pleases, I mean look at the universe - it’s so intriguing. I personally filed them under cousins of the jinn 🤣. Some dinosaurs were destructive and out of control which reminds me of the angels concerns when Allah said that a new khalifa of the earth was created.

Unpopular opinion, but not every single thing in existence needs to have an Islamic Explanation. science is science & religion is religion

The scientific content in the Quran is not exhaustive- it isalways part of a broader message. As A1 said, it's not a book of science. That dinosaurs weren't explicitly mentioned means absolutely nothing. Respectfully, the question implies some clash or debate when there isn't one. Dinosaurs are just animals that are now extinct.
