The Holy Qur'an in Surah Al-Mu’minun and Surah Al-Alaq describe the stages of human embryonic development, from a "clot" to a lump, then to bones and flesh, in surprising detail for a book revealed over 1400 years ago


"We (Allah) created man from a quintessence of clay. We then placed him as a nutfah (drop) in a place of settlement, firmly fixed, then We made the drop into an alaqah (leech like structure), and then We changed the alaqah into a mudghah (chewed like substance),then We made out of that mudghah, izam (skeleton,bones),then We clothed the bones with lahm (muscles,flesh) then We caused him to grow and come in being and attain the definitive (human)form. So, blessed be God, the best to create."

Surah Al-Mu’minun (23:13-14)

So if we arrange these stages chronologically we might come up with something like this

  1. Nutfah amshaj (drop that is mixed) this stage covers the period from fertilization to implantation. This stage is further divided into: (present day germinal stage): Khalq, Taqdir, Harth.

  2. Takhleeq (present day embryonic): this stage extends from the beginning of the 3rd week until the end of the 8th week and covers the developmental events. This stage is further divided into: Alaqah (leech-like), Mudghah (somites), Izam (skeleton) and Laham (muscles).

  3. Nash”ah: (Growth) [present day Foetal stage] During this period the shaping and modelling are active,the external appearance develops in such a way that foetus becomes recognizably human.It lasts till the completion of pregnancy.It is further divided into: An-nashaa-Khalaqakha (from 9–26wks) and Al Hadana-al Rahamiya (from 26 wks to full term). This could be an apt way of classifying the various stages of human development. (3)

Pretty Impressive huh?

I've come up with the project name...

#MonstrusoLabratories

A derelict secret facility once testing the Armatura IGNIS, a high tech super-suit built to take out the Overworld's many monsters, but now left to rot, filled with many, many horrors...

We're trying to decide on our 2025 Summer persona! (We're stuck between Cottagecore Conjurer or Gaming Goblin.)

Who will you be this summer? Make up your own Summer 2025 persona and add it in the comments!

Level 3 (ARMATURA IGNIS) is completed and while it is the shortest and easiest level (with no enemies) it is the most important one yet as it introduces Safe Rooms and... The ARMATURA IGNIS...

Also I made a sweet elevator ;)
