Qur'anic verses - Biological creation of Man (I):

These beautiful passages exhibit God's creative work. The various stages of creating Man from inorganic matter to the living stage are illustrated in divine laboratorial scenario. Thus inorganic matter constitutes of the earth are absorbed into living matter by way of food and living matter reproduces itself by means of sperm. This is deposited in the ovum and fertilises it and rests for a time in security in the mother's womb. The first change in the fertilised ovum is the conversion into a sort of clot of thickly congealed blood; the zygote cells grow by segmentation; then the mass gradually assumes shape in its growth as foetus. From the lump developed bones and flesh and organs and a nervous system. Then the journey will continue during the foetal stage where the foetus is protected in the mother's womb like a king in a castle until birth.
