The young one of a human being grows in the womb of his mother. In ancient times, the period from conception till child-birth was shrouded in mystery. It was only in the twentieth century that scientific developments made it possible to observe the development of a baby in the mother’s womb and obtain direct information about it. The vivid Quranic description of the various developmental stages of the formation and birth of human beings is surprisingly identical with modern scientific findings. This provides proof of the fact that the Quran is a book of God. Had it not been so, such similarity between the findings of modern research and the statements of the Quran, revealed fourteen hundred years ago, would not have been possible. o Nine things the Lord has commanded me. Fear of God in private and in public. Justness, whether in anger or in calmness. Moderation in both poverty and affluence. That I should join hands with those who break away from me, and give to those who deprive me, and forgive those who wrong me, and that my silence should be meditation, and my words remembrance of God, and my vision keen observation. - Prophet Muhammad
