simply embryo in the Quran are describing the outer shape stages of what the eye can see.
It is not describing what the eye can see.Summary about Embryology in the Glorious Quran:
1. Man is created from the purest and the best sperm (سلالة) that is also drawn with ease (سل ).
2. And in another Noble Verse, sperm (نطفة) is said to be a piercing and penetrating one ( تمنى and يمنى (to pierce)), which is exactly how the male's sperm enters the female's egg - through piercing through it.
3. The sperm (نطفة) is injected into (في) a secure and firm base (قرار مكين).
Read the table in the article for detailed definitions.
4. The sperm develops into a leech-like (علقة) substance.
5. Then the leech-like substance develops into a chewed-like (مضغة) substance.
6. Then from the chew-like substance bones (عظام) are created.
7. Then the muscles (لحم) wrap around the bones.
8. The fetus goes through
"three Veils of darkness and Stages" development. Science just confirmed it recently, and the Glorious Quran mentioned it 1,500 years ago.
Also more on the physiology of man, consider the following Noble Verses:
[096:015] Nay! if he desist not, We would will certainly smite his forehead,
[096:016] A lying, sinful forehead ناصية."Functional regions of the left hemisphere of the cerebral
cortex. The prefrontal area is located at the front of the cerebral
cortex. (Essentials of Anatomy & Physiology, Seeley and others, p. 210.)"
One main reason is that the brain's "Frontal Cortex", which is also called
"The Voice of Reason", develops last. The brain takes a very long time to develop Myelin, which is a protective natural insulation that the body builds for its cells. The brain not only doesn't complete developing Myelin for its cells until the late 20s or even past 30s, but it develops Myelin for the Frontal Cortex last! This is where people might appear to be physically built and mature, while their brains are still underdeveloped.
