FLESH
14- ...then created the chewed lump of flesh (mudga) into bones, then covered the bones
with flesh (lahm)...
23-The Believers, 14
259- Look further at the bones, how We construct them and then cover with flesh (lahm).
2-The Cow, 259
The embryo is a boneless lump. Its cartilage tissue is transformed into bones in due time, as
stated in the Quran, followed by their being clothed in muscular flesh. The Arabic word
“lahm” means the muscular flesh. This process was unknown 1400 years ago. It was
believed that the bones and muscles developed simultaneously. Advanced microscopes and
micro cameras introduced into the uterus corroborated once again the truth expressed in the
Quran.
The skeleton has a lubricating system, the details of which the present book can hardly
touch. Every joint in our bodies is regularly lubricated with special oily substances. Verse 259
of the sura The Cow, “Look further at the bones,” directs our attention to these data that
form but a small portion of man’s marvelous makeup.
2- Verily, We created the human from a drop of liquid mixture in order to try him. Thus We
made him a hearer and a seer.
76-The Human, 2
How marvelous it is to think that a day will come when a mixture called semen will be able to
hear, see, laugh, weep, think, understand; and artistic works may be created by him
endowed with aesthetic feelings. What a great gift for a man!
While the Quran says that there will be a day when a drop of a mixture will be able to hear
and see, maybe it implies the fact that seeing is to succeed hearing. In many verses we
frequently come across “hearing and seeing.” In all these verses hearing comes first and
seeing second. By the 23rd week of pregnancy the development of the ear is completed
while the retina is still undeveloped even in the 25th week. The fact that the verse mentions
hearing first and the organ of vision afterward may be an allusion to this fact.
8- God knows what every female bears, and how much the womb falls short or exceeds.
Everything He does is perfectly measured.
13-The Thunder, 8
