From CreationWiki, the encyclopedia of creation science

Response ArticleThis article (Qur'an describes human embryology accurately (Talk.Origins)) is a response to a rebuttal of a creationist claim published by Talk.Origins Archive under the title Index to Creationist Claims.

Claim CJ533:

The Qur'an, in the 7th century AD, described human embryology with astonishing accuracy. It says humans are created from "mingled fluid", i.e. sperm and eggs (e.g., 86:6-7). Suras 22:5 and 23:13-14 describe embryological development in stages.
