Taken as a whole, the verses of the Qur'an can be understood to evince a peculiar understanding of the human body, in line with the thought of the ancient Mediterranean world in the 7th century.
 
'''Allah (God) Almighty describes the creation of humans by stating that the human body is created from clay (i.e. water and soil).'''
__TOC__
 
 
Thus Qur'an teaches that the first step in the creation of the human body is coming together of the elements comprising the human body. According to the Qur'an these are the elemtns of earth, that is to say clay.
 
The second stage in the [[creation]] of humans as described in the Qur'an is the Nutfah.
 
After the above stage comes the Alaqa stage.
 
 
== Qur'an Surahs ==
 
The Qur'an is a document which was put down to paper in the 7th century, with material that may be as old as the 6th century AD. As such it evinces an understanding of science and human biology grounded in the thought of the time, which was a combination of received knowledge and the psuedo-scientific findings of Greek philosophy/science, with some practitioners of this being more empirical in their investigations. The Qur'an thus buys into the Greek four-element model of nature as well as various Greek theories of biology which were not arrived at through the scientific method and vigorous empirical investigation.
