HUMAN  BEING CREATED FROM NUTFAH

 (MINUTE QUANTITY OF LIQUID)

The Glorious Qur’an mentions no less than eleven times that the human being is created from nutfah,  which means a minute quantity of liquid or a trickle of liquid that remains after emptying a cup.

This is mentioned in several verses of the Qur’an including 22:5 and 23:13.1

Science has confirmed in recent times that only one out of an average of three million sperms is required for fertilizing the ovum.

 This means that only 1/3 millionth part or 0.00003% of the quantity of sperms that are emitted is required for fertilization.

 

1 The same is also mentioned in the Qur’an in 16:4, 18:37, 35:11, 36:77, 40:67, 53:46, 75:37, 76:2 and 80:19.
