I would like to mention that the holy Quran didn't say that man is created from a blood clot, the word ( Alaqa) which is the second stage according to the Quranic embryology has other meanings beside blood clot, it means a clinged or attached thing or something that's hanging from another thing, also it means a leech. However, I would like first to clear the issue of the virgin birth story
Salaam, please do not concern yourself with this matter on my behalf. I only mentioned it in passing. I am not overly concerned with scientific accounts, miraculous or otherwise in the Quran. I personally don't see what they bring to enlightenment in regards to ones spirituality or bringing one closer to God.

Time would be better spent explaining what the Quran has brought that is new in revelation to mankind... Because for a non Muslim it seems like we have the Jewish scriptures, the Gospel, the Gnostics along side ancient folk tales and scientific facts often know already. I am struggling to find what the new updated message is when it comes to ones redemption and making oneself right with God.

maybe someone could explain this on another thread rather than go of on a tangent. :)

Peace to you.
