When I studied medicine and different parts of the human body, I never stopped being amazed. And I will never stop being amazed by the work of Allah, the Almighty One! 

The more knowledge I gained, the more greateful I was, and my Imaan increased as well as my love for Allah Subhanahu wa ta'ala. And I often thought that it is impossible to even think that God doesn´t exist, ne'uzu billah! I mean how could some person deny its own exsistence!? That doesn´t make sense at all, does it? Because, according to me if you deny the Creator, you then deny the creation as well. 

 

There is so much to tell about the human body, so much to learn about the perfect work created by the Perfect Creator. While I was studying I often wondered how come that so many of us are healthy. This maybe sounds strangde becase we know that there are many people out there struggling with different diseases every day (May Allah have mercy upon them and give them a good health). But if one considers how many functions/processes in the human body that could go wrong then this would probably make more sense. "So blessed be Allah, the Best of creators." (Surah Al- Mu’minun, vers 14)

 

 

In many of the verses in the holy Qur’an, people are called upon to consider their own creation. They are often reminded how man came into the world, which stages he has passed through, and what his essence is:

 

It is We Who have created you. Why, then, do you not accept the truth? Have you ever considered that [seed] which you emit? Is it you who create it? Or are We the Creator? (Qur'an, 56:57-59)

 

 

Sperm undertake a journey into the mother's body until they reach the ovum. Only a thousand out of 250 million sperm succeed in reaching the ovum. At the end of this five-minute race, the ovum, half the size of a grain of salt, will let only one of the sperms in. That is, the substance of man is not the whole semen, but only a small part of it. This is explained in the Surat al-Qiyama as follows:

 

Does man reckon he will be left uncontrolled [without purpose]? Was he not once a drop of ejected semen? (Qur'an, 75:36-37)

 

The fluid referred to as semen, which contains the sperm, does not consist of sperm alone. On the contrary, it is made up of a mixture of different fluids. Seminal fluid is a collection of substances secreted from the testicles, the seminal vesicles, the prostate gland and glands linked to the urinary tract. A detailed analysis of this fluid shows that it consists of a great many separate substances, such as citric acid, prostaglandin, flavin, ascorbic acid, ergothioneine, cholesterol, phospholipids, fibrinolysin, zinc, phosphatase acid, phosphase, hyaluronidase and sperm. These fluids exercise different functions, such as containing the sugar necessary for providing energy for the sperm, neutralizing the acids at the entrance of the uterus, and providing a slippery substance for the easy movement of the sperm.

 

When semen is mentioned in the Qur'an, this fact, which was discovered by modern science, is also referred to, and semen is defined as a mixed fluid:

 

We created man from a mingled drop to test him, and We made him hearing and seeing. (Qur'an, 76:2)

 

In other verses, semen is again referred to as a mixture, and it is stressed that man is created from the "extract" of this mixture:

 

He Who has created all things in the best possible way. He commenced the creation of man from clay; then He made his progeny from an extract of discarded fluid. (Qur'an, 32:7-8)

 

The Arabic word "sulala," translated as "extract," means the essential or best part of something. By either meaning, it refers to "part of a whole." This shows that the Qur'an is the Word of Allah, Who knows the creation of man to its minute details.
