Evoluation theory: in light of the Quran

In Sura Ar-Rahman, Allah tells us that he has created human from clay just like pottery.
خَلَقَ الۡاِنۡسَانَ مِنۡ صَلۡصَالٍ كَالۡفَخَّارِۙ

"He created man from clay like [that of] pottery" [55:14] Surat Ar-Raĥmān (The Beneficent)

What does it mean? Why the analogy of pottery? What differences  it would have made if Allah had given the analogy of a mold for creating human? 

In pottery, it starts with a lump of clay and slowly and gradually, through the guidance and influence of the potter, it gets the shape of the object that the potter wanted to create i.e. it has to morph into the final shape of the object through a number of stages. If you look at the object in the beginning of the creation, you would not get any idea of the final object due to its sheer dissimilarity of look and feel. Even at the center stage of creation, it would hardly look like the object of its final product. Now, if you introduce the dimension of time into it, it may take a short period of time or it may take a while to make an object, depending on the complexity of the object. So, in theory, it could be a minute, an hour, a year or a millions of years.

Allah also mentioned in another Surah that he has created all lives from water and some walks on two, some are on four legs and some slither.

"Allah has created every [living] creature from water. And of them are those that move on their bellies, and of them are those that walk on two legs, and of them are those that walk on four. Allah creates what He wills. Indeed, Allah is over all things competent." [24:45] Surat An-Nūr (The Light)

وَاللّٰهُ خَلَقَ كُلَّ دَآبَّةٍ مِّنۡ مَّآءٍ ‌ۚفَمِنۡهُمۡ مَّنۡ يَّمۡشِىۡ عَلٰى بَطۡنِهٖ‌ۚ وَمِنۡهُمۡ مَّنۡ يَّمۡشِىۡ عَلٰى رِجۡلَيۡنِ وَمِنۡهُمۡ مَّنۡ يَّمۡشِىۡ عَلٰٓى اَرۡبَعٍ‌ؕ يَخۡلُقُ اللّٰهُ مَا يَشَآءُ‌ؕ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ عَلٰى كُلِّ شَىۡءٍ قَدِيۡرٌ

Now, let's look at the evolution theory. Why should we rule that out as an outright wrong theory in the basis of "religious"? I am not saying that the Evaluation theory is right but in what sense one would declare that this theory contradicts with the will and creation of human by Allah. So, here's my point of view: regardless of the Evolution theory, we don't know how Allah has created the creation and the analogy Allah, that has given in the Quran, doesn't tell us to accept or reject Evaluation theory. We don't need to fight with the Evolution theorist to prove Allah's supreme power of creating life. Let science take its own course. Through which we may know Allah's creation in a better way OR may be not. It may help to understand the religion better OR may be not. Think about the Geocentric theory of our universe, which, once the people of religion fought tooth and nail to protect that idea (or believe) by claiming that the Quran (similar to the Christians) has told us the universe is geocentric. And, now it has been unanimously agreed by all the scholars that the interpretation of the Text was wrong. The Quran did actually told us that both Sun, Moon and Earth are orbiting in their own orbits.

He created the heavens and the earth in true (proportions): He makes the Night overlap the Day, and the Day overlap the Night: He has subjected the sun and the moon (to His law), each one follows a course for a time appointed. Is not He the Exalted in Power― He Who forgives again and again? [39:5]

خَلَقَ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالۡاَرۡضَ بِالۡحَقِّ‌ ۚ يُكَوِّرُ الَّيۡلَ عَلَى النَّهَارِ وَيُكَوِّرُ النَّهَارَ عَلَى الَّيۡلِ وَسَخَّرَ الشَّمۡسَ وَالۡقَمَرَ‌ؕ كُلٌّ يَّجۡرِىۡ لِاَجَلٍ مُّسَمًّى‌ؕ اَلَا هُوَ الۡعَزِيۡزُ الۡغَفَّارُ‏ 

Science started with "The Eternal state" theory for Universe, then came to "The Big Bang" theory which is not just entirely opposite to its earlier claim but very similar to what is said in Quran: ,

"Do not the Unbelievers see that the heavens and the earth were joined together (as one unit of Creation), before We clove them asunder? We made from water every living thing. Will they not then believe?" [21:30]
اَوَلَمۡ يَرَ الَّذِيۡنَ كَفَرُوۡۤا اَنَّ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالۡاَرۡضَ كَانَـتَا رَتۡقًا فَفَتَقۡنٰهُمَا‌ ؕ وَجَعَلۡنَا مِنَ الۡمَآءِ كُلَّ شَىۡءٍ حَىٍّ‌ ؕ اَفَلَا يُؤۡمِنُوۡنَ 

"To Him is due the primal origin of the heavens and the earth; when He decreeth a matter, He saith to it: "Be"; and it is" [2:117]
بَدِيۡعُ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالۡاَرۡضِ‌ؕ وَ اِذَا قَضٰٓى اَمۡرًا فَاِنَّمَا يَقُوۡلُ لَهٗ كُنۡ فَيَكُوۡنُ‏

Finally, I want to remind myself with the last words of the last sermon of the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh)-

“All those who listen to me shall pass on my words to others and those to others again; and may the last ones understand my words better than those who listen to me directly. Be my witness, O Allah, that I have conveyed Your message to Your people.”

Repeating from above, "....and may the last ones understand my words better than those who listen to me directly...."
