“And He created for you (the faculties) of hearing and sight and
feeling and understanding, little thanks it is you give.” A
l-
Qur’an: 23:v78
.
“He makes you in the wombs of your mothers, in stages, one
after another, in three veils of darkness.”
Al-Qur’an. 39:v6
.
According to Prof. Moore, these three veils of darkness refer to:
(i) the anterior wall of the mother. (ii) The uterine wall. (iii) The
amino-chorionic membrane. The above are the exact stages of the
creation of man, which was discovered by Dr. Moore only after
the Qur’anic verses were made known to him.
In 1981, during the Seventh Medical Conference in Damman,
Saudi Arabia, Dr. Moore said: “It has been a great pleasure for
me to help clarify statements in the Qur’an about human
development. It is clear to me that these statements must have
come from God, or Allah as the Muslims call Him, because
almost all this knowledge was not discovered until many
centuries later.
This proves to me that Muhammed must have been a
messenger of Allah or God
.”
Prof. Marshall Johnson who is one of the leading scientists in the
USA, and is the head of the Dept. of Anatomy and Director of
the Daniel Institute at the Thomas Jefferson University in
Philadelphia, was asked to comment on the verses dealing with
embryology.
He said: “I see nothing here in conflict with the concept that Divine
intervention was involved when Muhammed (pbuh) recited the
Qur’an.”
The following comments have been made
by Dr. Joe Leigh
Simpson, who is the Chairman of the Department of Obstetrics and
Gynecology, at the Baylor College of Medicine, Houston, USA.
Formerly, he was Prof. Of Ob-gyn and the Chairman of the Ob-
gyn at the University of Tennessee, USA. He was also the
President of the American Fertility Society. He has received
many awards, including the Association of Professors of
Obstetrics and Gynecology Recognition Award in 1992.
