77. Does man not see that We created him from a drop of fluid? Yet, behold, turning away from the realities, he becomes an open [69] adversary.
[69] The reality of man is that he was created from a drop of fluid that was made from lifeless substances. Then Allah breathed a soul into him, and not only did he begin to move, eat, drink, and grow like other living beings, but he was also endowed with intellect, understanding, the power of deduction, reasoning, and the abilities of speech and eloquence that no other creature possessed. And when he reached this stage, he began to raise various arguments and disputes about his Creator.
