Abstract: (1820 Views) |
| Commentators of the Quran have developed various and sometimes contradictory theories about the meaning of verses 5 to 7 of chapter Tariq. To most commentators, the pronoun in verb “emerges” refers to the emitted water, and ماء دافق means ejected fluid. So, the fluid semen emerges from between the backbone and the ribs. This is also called departure of the sperm from the back of the man and the breast of woman. Some have also said that sperm, specific to man, comes out from his back and two thigh bones. Rejecting the previous view, some contemporary scholars have considered the subject of “emerges” as human and have interpreted the meaning of human departure as leaving the mother's womb. The present study attempts to explain the shortcomings of the current theories with the help of internal and external evidences and develop a new perspective that can be the least criticized. So, based on this view, what is meant by ejected fluid is the primary substantial matter of creation. The word Sulb translated as backbone means hard parts and the word Taraib translated as ribs means the soft parts of the earth. |
