Medicine For Faith: Correlation between Qura'n and Embryo

A message to disbelievers

O man, have you asked yourself where you were before your birth? How and from what are you formed ; as well as many other similar questions,   Do you know how your creation was initiated? Do you know that the human body begins with mixing of very little amounts of very weak genital fluids from a man and a woman ?  All nations, tribes, and generations originate in this manner  . You were two separate halves, one secreted by your father, the other secreted by your mother. How could the two parts meet? That is the measuring of the Mighty, the Wise.

Who has put mercy and affection between the two sexes to encourage marriage? Who is He Who created your half in your father and provided it with accommodation, motility and nourishment? Who is He Who made it migrate from one place to another and rendered it possible for this half to meet the second half originating from your mother? Who is He Who made your mother’s womb ready to this meeting?   Who is He  made your half that has come from your father to migrate through your mother’s womb   to the destined meeting place with the other half? Who is He Who made your second half that came from your mother move from the ovary towards the uterus and not to other place ? Who is He Who made  your two halves meet at a determined moment, in a determined place in a determined environment prepared in a determined period of your mother’s life, which rendered it possible for her to conceive you, declaring thus the existence of a new creation? Who is He Who measured all this to form the unique individual that you are? A creation that is perfectly planned every thing !!
Whether old or young, great or simple, king or, learned or ignorant, man was no more than a mixture of  very little  and weak  genital fluids, and then he developed into a full grown human being. Who has been behind all this? Has it been mere coincidence, or is it the nature ? is it the  glands or the hormones? Could any one of these factors have been behind this meticulous arrangement, the perfect planning of appearance, size, functions, characteristics, timing and place ? Is this through men ,who are themselves powerless and have limited knowledge?  or is it rather the Power of the Creator, the Wise, the All –Knowing.
Allah – the Almighty – said :  ” Man is killed ( cursed the disbeliever ) ! What has made him disbelieve? ( How ungrateful is he!) From what thing did He created him * From nutfah ( a drop of mingled fluid ) He created him , then immediately  made  him according to a measure  * Then He has made his path ( to come out of his mother’s  abdomen ) easy (for him)  . Then He causes him to die and puts him in a grave . Then when it is His will, He will raise him up (again) ( for Resurrection) . By no means ,  he (man) has not done what He (God)  has commanded him. “  ( Surah Abasa , 80 : Ayat (verses) 17- 23 )

Such was the beginning of man,  from a drop of mixed germinal fluids which contains the chromosomes  and genes that cannot be seen by the naked eye. This drop has produced the human existence which has filled the earth with civilization. Likewise, such will be the later creation. He Who  initiated the first creation certainly is able to repeat it. The Qur’an refers to this in the following passage:

 

Allah – the Almighty – said “Does not man see that  We created him from nutfah (a drop of mingled fluid)  ? Yet behold, he is an obvious opponent  ( to Us) * And he makes a similitude for Us, and forgets his own creation. He says, Who will revive these bones that have been rotted  ? * Say, they will be revived by Him, Who produced them at the first time. And He  is well-versed in every  creature.” ( Knower of all details about every creature before and after  creation) ( Surah Ya Seen ;  36 : Ayat (verses)  77- 79 ).

Is this not a foolish dispute, from a drop  of very weak mixture of  germinal fluids , against the Lord of the heavens and the earth, the Initiator of life and the living creatures? There was an epoch when there was no human existence on the earth. Then man was created and has become the master of this earth. Generations after generations of human beings come forth from mixture of germinal drops, equipped with the tools of knowledge, namely hearing, vision, etc., so that man is qualified to receive the Guidance and carry the trust.  The Qur’an states:  ”Has there come over man a period of time,  when he was nothing (not even) mentioned? * Verily We have created man from nutfah amshaj (a drop of mingled fluid)  in order to test him. Then ,  We have made him a hearing and a seeing (creature)” ( Surah Al-Insan; 76 : Ayaht ( verses ) : 1 & 2  )

Thus , man goes through the test and commits as many deeds as he wishes. Everything in this world passes away except the good deeds and bad deeds for which man is held accountable.
