2. (Say: "Travel in the land and see
how (Allah) originated the creation,
and then Allah will bring forth the
creation of the Hereafter (i.e.
resurrection after death). Verily,
Allah is Able to do all things.”(
] Sûrat Al-‘Ankabût -Verse 20 ]

3. Dear my lovers! This research is not just for reading or
knowledge , but it is a kind of worship to Allah , and a
respond to the divine order :(So let man see from what he is
created) to realize the power of God by bringing us back after
death (Verily, (Allah) is Able to bring him back (to life)).
Therefore, thinking in God’s creation is a great worship and
it’s not less important than prayer , fasting and almsgiving .
That thinking refines our soul and makes us modest in front of
the grandeur of the creator and also increase our belief in
God be He blessed and exalted .
In the Name of Allah,
the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
All the praises and thanks be to Allah, the Lord of
the Âlamîn (mankind, jinn and all that exists) and
peace be upon our prophet (Muhammad) and his
family and companions

4. So let man see from what he is created…So let man see from what he is created…
During this journey of faith,
we will look at the stages of
human’s creation by using
the taken photos by
scientists in the twenty one
century and to look
attentively at these stages as
God told us about it in the
Qur’an fourteen century ago.

5. Dust is
The first stage
in creation
Scientists confirm that our body contains the
same elements as the existed in dust . Exactly as
Qur’an told us , God says: (And among His Signs
is this, that He created you (Adam) from dust, and
then behold you are human beings scattered).
)Sûrat Ar-Rûm – verse
20(

6. Water
God created everything from water.
Scientists found that percentage of water in
the bodies of the living organisms is more
than 70%, God says:
(And We have made from water every living thing )
Sûrat Al-Anbiyâ-’Verse 30)
(Allah has created every moving (living) creature from
water ) (Sûrat An-Nûr- verse45)

7. Human should be modest , also should get rid of his arrogance
when he realize that his origin is from the clay followed by unseen
sperm . God says: (O man! What has made you careless about
your Lord, the Most Generous? * Who created you, fashioned you
perfectly, and gave you due proportion * In whatever form He
willed, He put you together) Sûrat Al-Infitâr- verse 6:8).
O Man…
know your origin…..
Spermatozoon

8. One of the most strange phenomena is the creation of
human !one cell grows to be 100 trillion cell , How does
this operation happen? who controls this precise
program, Is it nature or the creator of nature?
100000000000000
One hundred trillion cell
A fertilized cell which is seen
only by a microscope
After 9 months

9. The most strange thing is that the mother cell starts to split
but it doesn’t produce same cells, but different cells ,some of
it for skin, bone , brain eye and heart , etc……who tells these
cells to do such job ? God says:
(He has created everything, and has measured it exactly
according to its due measurements ) (Sûrat Al-Furqân -verse2).
The program of life
who made it?

10. Stages
of
embryo
creation
in
Qur’an

11. (And indeed We created man (Adam) out of an extract of
clay (water and Dust) * Thereafter We made him (the
offspring of Adam) as a Nutfah (mixed drops of the male
and female sexual discharge )and lodged it in a safe lodging
(womb of the woman) * Then We made the Nutfah into a clot
(a piece of thick coagulated blood), then We made the
clot into a little lump of flesh , then We made out of that
little lump of flesh bones , then We clothed the bones with
flesh , and then We brought it forth as another
creation . So Blessed is Allah, the Best of creators).

And then We
brought it forth as
another creation.
Then We made the
clot into a little
lump of flesh
Then We made
out of that little
lump of flesh
bones
Then We clothed
the bones with flesh

13. God had created human from water and dust , therefore
we find that water is about 2/3 of our body, so mixing
water with dust produce clay , which is our origin, God
says :(And indeed We created man (Adam) out of an
extract of clay (water and Dust) ) ( Surat Al-Mu’minûn - verse 12 )
Clay

14. Scientists discovered that the human
body consists of some elements which
are the same elements as in dust . One of
the latest discoveries is that some kinds
of clay contain antibiotics which are able
to kill the most obstinate kind of germs.
Hence they are thinking to use dust to
sterilize hospitals!!
So that God gave human a big honor when He
be blessed and exalted created him from dust.

15. The Nutfah is not seen by naked eye because of its smallness,
but medical researches show that secret of life is more smaller
than that and it is in the deep of the Nutfah, in what is called the
hereditary tape (DNA) which contains all necessary information
to create a Sane man. God says :(Thereafter We made him as a
Nutfah and lodged it in a safe lodging ) ( Surat Al-Mu’minûn - verse 13 )
the safe lodging is the uterus, scientists say that the uterus
becomes greater a thousand times after pregnancy!!!
The Nutfah
Which is The produced sperm by man
Sperm

16. Sperms are competing to
reach the ovum as they are
trying to penetrate it , the
question is who taught
these sperms to run in that
darkness to reach its
target? And who drives it
toward the ovum? God
says:
(Is then He Who creates
like one that creates not?
Will ye not receive
admonition?)
(Sûrat An-Nahl - Verse17)
SpermSperm
OvumOvum

17. Large number of sperms are
surrounding the ovum but
only one sperm can
penetrate it to form the
mixed Nutfah ( mixing of
sperm and ovum). If we
examine the chemical
composition of sperm or
ovum we will find that most
of it consists of water , God
says: (So let man see from
what he is created * he is
created from a water
gushing forth )
(Sûrat At-Târiq - Verse 5-6)
Ovum which is
ovulated by the woman every month

18. The head of the sperm contains all needed programs and
information to produce the embryo , therefore it is responsible for
the determination of the sex of the fetus (male or female). Qur’an
refers to that as God Says: (And that He (Allah) creates the pairs,
male and female * From Nutfah (drops of semen - male and female
discharges) when it is emitted ) (Sûrat An-Najm – verse 45- 46)
Length of the sperm is less than one part of one hundred part of millimeterLength of the sperm is less than one part of one hundred part of millimeter
Each time the man ejaculateEach time the man ejaculate
300 million sperm!300 million sperm!
Sperm is supported by a long tail to help it in the swimming toward the target,
that tail will be separated from the sperm before penetrating the ovum.

19. )Does not man see that
We have created him from
Nutfah Yet behold he
(stands forth) as an open
opponent.(
When the first sperm enters the ovum ,that ovum starts to secrete aWhen the first sperm enters the ovum ,that ovum starts to secrete a

that she is pregnant.that she is pregnant.

Ovum
(Sûrat Yâ-Sîn – verse 77)

20. The mingled sperm
After 30 hours of entering the ovum by the sperm , the first
split occurs and the cell starts to increase to form the
mingled sperm , that is after almost four days. size of the
new cell is less than the head of a pin as it is not seen . God
be He blessed and exalted says:
(Has there not been over Man a long period of time, when he was nothing -
(not even) mentioned?* Verily We created Man from a drop of mingled
sperm, in order to try him: So We gave him (the gifts), of Hearing and
Sight( (Sûrat Al-Insân - verse 1-2)
ZygoteZygote

21. A microscopic photo for a three
days old embryo !!! It is a cell
which was divided into 8 cells
and it can be divided more and
more to form 100 trillion cell.
He is Allah, the Creator, the Inventor of all things, the
Bestower of forms. To Him belong the Best Names. All
that is in the heavens and the earth glorify Him. And He
is the All-Mighty, the All-Wise.
Who tells this cell to split and
Multiply to form a human?

is clinging to the uterusis clinging to the uterus

23. After the merger of the sperm with an ovum , splits start at once,
and then the fertilized ovum goes toward the wall of the uterus to
stick and cling to it. God says: ( It is He, Who has created you
(Adam) from dust, then from a Nutfah [mixed semen drops of
male and female sexual discharge] then from a clot (a piece of
coagulated blood) ) (Sûrat Ghâfir- verse 67 )

ClotClot

24. Scientists are confused:
What drives this cluster of
cells to attach to the uterus
to get feeding from it?
Clot
EndometriumEndometrium
The fertilized cell is transformed to be the clot , which
is a group of cells that stick on the Endometrium (the
inner membrane of the uterus) during almost 6 – 12
days and it chooses the best place for that!

25. A little lump
of flesh
After that , the embryo is transformed to Something like a
chewed piece of meat , God says about that :(then from a little
lump of flesh - some formed and some unformed (as in the case
of miscarriage) - that We may make (it) clear to you (i.e. to show
you Our Power and Ability to do what We will). And We cause
whom We will to remain in the wombs for an appointed term)
(Sûrat Al-Hajj – verse5 )

26. What happens at this stage?
At this stage the important organs are created like
nervous system, heart and brain ,as heart starts
pulsing and also many systems like respiratory
system , kidneys and Liver are rapidly grows up.
Now, Length of the embryo is less
than 4 mm
Then from a little lump of flesh -
some formed and some unformed

27. 12
An image for an embryo in the stage of (little lump of flesh) , it
looks like a chewed piece of meat, , at this stage it is hard to
see that little lump of flesh by naked eye, it needs microscopes
but Almighty God told us about this stage and He represented
it as if we see it with our eyes !!!

28. 7 Weeks-old embryo ,do you know what is the length of it? It
is less than 2 cm , bones formation start at this stage.

29. Bones stage
Bones formation start At this stage , during the
sixth week till the eighth . Bones formation and
growing continue after birth. God be He blessed
and exalted says: (then We made out of that little
lump of flesh bones).
What baffle scientists is : what makes
these cells to know that it must be
transformed to bones at this time?
Bone formationBone formation

30. At this age, heart began
pulsing, and brain starts
to transmit
electromagnetic waves
and the embryo start to
get affected by mother’s
voice. hence mothers
should always read
Qur’an because heart
and brain of the embryo
get affected by that.

31. Flesh Stage
At this stage, Muscles begin to take shape and
to cover bones. This stage lasts for a long time
and it overlaps with the previous stage which is
Bones stage. God be He exalted says:
(then We clothed the bones with flesh)
Now, Length of the embryo is less than 3 cm

32. 7-8 Weeks old embryo and appears on it the beginning of the flesh stage
as muscles start to cover the bones. At the beginning of the eighth week
muscles start to move. Also skin starts to cover the entire body . God be
He exalted says: (Look at the bones, how We bring them together and
clothe them with flesh ) (Sûrat Al-Baqarah- verse 259)
And also in
your
own selves.
Will you not
then see?

33. The covering process of the Mandible boneThe covering process of the Mandible bone

34. The other creation
At this stage , the embryo starts to take its final features , eyes and
ears start to appear also organs of the entire body , the heart start its
electrical activity ,brain is very complicated and its weight is almost
half the weight of the body . The remaining operations are just the
growth of these organs . This stage lasts till the end of pregnancy ,
God says:
(and then We brought it forth as another creation)
(Sûrat Al-Mu’minûn – verse 14)
Length of that embryo is less than 4 cm

35. Now, Embryo is 8 weeks old and itNow, Embryo is 8 weeks old and it
has 90%of the systems in ourhas 90%of the systems in our
body. Number of cells in thatbody. Number of cells in that
embryo is 1000 million cell , whoembryo is 1000 million cell , who
created these cells?created these cells?
During the first eight weeks ,
Embryo develops and takes
many different shapes . But
after that the appearance of the
embryo remain without any
changes till birth .Therefore all
cited stages by the Qur’an
happens during the first eight
weeks .The final stage starts
from the eighth week till birth
which is called by the Qur’an
“ another creation”:
and then We brought it forth as
another creation.

36. So Blessed is Allah, the Best of creators…..
Heart of the embryo strikes 54 million pulse
during pregnancy!

37. The following weeks till birth: is the beginning of the fetus
development and organs grow up rapidly. The fetus starts to feel,
smile and cry and feels with mother. Also the fetus starts training for
Breastfeeding by Sucking fingers and the continuous movement of
mouse (opening & closing )to be ready for mother’s milk.
Ninth week: Fetus starts to Sucking fingers, moving his
tongue and to feel with his mother’s body ,also genital
organs for male and female became clear.
Tenth week: begin of the creation of fingerprints and
nails, also Fetus starts to yawn .
Eleventh week: the genital organs start to emerge , also
the duodenum start its activities
And then We brought it forth as another creation. So Blessed isAnd then We brought it forth as another creation. So Blessed is
Allah, the Best of creatorsAllah, the Best of creators

38. 4 Months old – Fetus
Now, Fetus can listen
to all surrounding
voices
Many confusing questions
by scientists:
 How can a single cell
evolves to produce that
sophisticated creature
which is human?
Who tell these cells about
its mission?
Who coordinate its job
to produce that perfect
outcome?
Now, length of the Fetus is 12 cm and
weight 140 gram!

39. The end of the sixth month is
the Completion of creating the
fetus, this is the minimum
period for pregnancy . God
says: (and the bearing of him,
and the weaning of him is
thirty months ) (Sûrat Al-Ahqâf -
verse 15 ). As breastfeeding
period is 24 months ,hence the
minimum period of pregnancy
is
30-24=6 months
And this is a koranic miracle in
determining the minimum
period of pregnancy.Six months old FetusSix months old Fetus

40. Look attentively at the
size of the embryo
when it is one month
old as its length is
less than 4 millimeter
and look at length of
the Fetus just before
birth
Who guides that embryo in his journey to life ?
He is Almighty God who says: (Our Lord is He Who
gave to each thing its form and nature, then guided it
aright ) (surat Taha- verse 50).

41. After nine months ,
Fetus gets out to be a
child with ears , eyes
and brain which contains
1000000000000 cell .
How does this child
know the exact time to
go out ???? Allah is the
doer who says: (then
brings you forth as an
infant ) (Sûrat Ghâfir- verse 67).

42. O’ you son of Adam , your mother begets you when you are crying
at the time when all people around you were happy and smiling
Do a work that will makes you happy when you die
and all of the people around you are sad and crying
Arab poetry

43. Here are some supplications by some prophets
O My Lord! Leave me not single
(childless), though You are the Best of
the inheritors.
Our Lord! Bestow on us from our wives and our offspring the
comfort of our eyes, and make us leaders of the pious.
My Lord! truly, I am in need of whatever
good that You bestow on me!
O my Lord! Grant me from You, a good offspring. You are indeed
the All-Hearer of invocation.

44. Dear brother and sister!! One day , you were stick In the
womb of your mother where food and livelihood were
coming to you without any effort . Shouldn’t you Prostrate

46. Human embryoCat embryo
(Or do they assign to Allah partners who created the like of His
creation, so that the creation (which they made and His creation)
seemed alike to them?" Say: "Allah is the Creator of all things; and He
is the One, the Irresistible.) (Sûrat Ar-Ra‘d – verse 16)
There is a big similarity between the embryo of
many living organisms , which testify that there is
only one creator

47. Also there is a similarity between The beginning of
galaxies and the embryo at early stages which testify
that there is only one creator (be He exalted and
blessed), God says: (Allah is the creator of every thing) ,
Glory to God !!!
Image for a far galaxy in its
early stages
Image for an embryo in its
early stages

48. There is an amazing similarity between the brain weave for an
embryo and the cosmic web for a galaxy !! It is really hard for a
human to distinguish between both of them . It is an indication
that the creator of universe is the creator of human!!
Brain weaveBrain weave Cosmic webCosmic web

49. These factsThese facts
Finally, we have to ask a question for those who claims that
the Qur’an is a book of myths: from where in the seventh
century did the illiterate prophet Mohamed (Peace be up on
him ) get these specific details about embryo creation? Also,
how could he describes each stage with the best scientific
meaning? While scientists in the seventeen century were
confused about the creation of human as they believed that
inside the Nutfah there is a complete human and they never
tried to talk about stages of creation as Qur’an did. It is a
Concrete evidence that message of Islam is sincere !
