Are the Quran's descriptions regarding the stages of fetal development and human creation in harmony with modern medical and biological discoveries? Many, citing well-known exegeses and translations, claim that there is a contradiction between the Quran and science. But what is the reality?

In this video, Seyyed Hamid Hosseini examines, with precision and scientific rigor, words such as "Alaqah," "Mudghah," and the most challenging section, namely "Sulb and Taraib." We investigate how the precise lexical meaning of these words not only does not contradict modern science, but reveals details that were articulated centuries before the invention of the microscope.

In this video we answer the following questions:

Does "Alaqah" mean coagulated blood or something resembling a leech?

To what is "Mudghah" or chewed meat equivalent in modern embryology?

What is meant by the emergence of spermatozoa from the midst of "Sulb and Taraib"? Is this a scientific error or a precise anatomical description?

What is the main purpose of the Quran in presenting these scientific matters?
