The Miracle of Human Creation

The human body is the most complicated machine in the world. We see with it, hear with it, breathe with it, walk and run with it, and sense pleasure with it. Its bones, muscles, arteries, veins and internal organs are organized with marvellous design, and when we examine this design in detail we find even more amazing facts. Every part of the body, though each may seem to be so different from another, is made up of the same material: cells.

Cells, each of which is one thousandth of a millimetre, are the structural units that form our body and everything in it. Some of these cells unite to form bones, others to form nerves, the liver, the inner layer of the stomach, the skin or the cornea of the eyeball. Each has the size and shape that exactly meet the requirement of that part of the body.

How and when did cells, which have such varied functions, come into being?

The answer to this question will take us into a process whose every moment is filled with mystery. All the approximately 100 trillion cells that make up your body today came from the division of one single cell. That single cell which had the same structure as all the cells in your body now, came from the union of your mother's egg cell and your father's sperm cell.

In the Qur'an, God sometimes refers to the wonders of the earth and the sky, and sometimes to the mysteries of the creation of living things as various signs of His existence. One of the most important of these signs is His wondrous creation of human beings.

"Kamilah Yang telah menciptakan kamu (dari tiada kepada ada - Wahai golongan Yang ingkar), maka ada baiknya kalau kamu percaya (akan kebangkitan kamu hidup semula pada hari kiamat). (Mengapa kamu masih berdegil?) tidakkah kamu memikirkan keadaan air mani Yang kamu pancarkan (ke Dalam rahim)? Adakah kamu Yang menciptakannya atau Kami Yang menciptakannya?"

(Al-Wa'qiaah:57-59)
