Modern Embryology from Holy Qur'an

[justme]

We will show them Our Signs in the universe, and in their own selves, until it becomes manifest to them that this (the Qur'ân) is the truth. Is it not sufficient in regard to your Lord that He is a Witness over all things? Quran 41:53

The Wrapping of Muscles over the Bones


Another important item of information provided in the verses of the Qur'an is the developmental stages of a human being in the mother's womb. It is stated in these verses that in the mother's womb, the bones develop first, and then the muscles form which wrap around them.



Verily We created man from a product of wet earth(Clay); Then We placed him as (a drop of) sperm in a place of rest, firmly fixed; Then We made the sperm into a clot and formed the clot into a lump and formed the lump into bones and clothed the bones in flesh; and then brought him into being as another creature. Blessed be Allah, the Best of Creators! (Qur'an, 23:12-14)

Verily We created man from a product of wet earth (Clay)....


Then We placed him as(a drop of) sperm....


in a place of rest, firmly fixed;Then We made the sperm into a clot....


and formed the clot into a lump....


and formed the lump into bones....


and clothed the bones in flesh....



and then brought him into being as another creature.
Blessed be Allah, the Best of Creators! (Qur'an, 23:14)



Embryology is the branch of science that studies the development of the embryo in the mother's womb. Until very recently, embryologists assumed that the bones and muscles in an embryo developed at the same time. Yet, advanced microscopic research conducted by virtue of new technological developments has revealed that the revelation of the Qur'an is word for word correct.
