These are steps of embryo formation in mother’s womb
Its Amazing to know that these steps are mentioned in details in the Quran .
This is a verse from the Quran :
“O People, if you should be in doubt about the Resurrection, then [consider that] indeed, We created you from dust, then from a sperm-drop, then from a clinging clot, and then from a lump of flesh, formed and unformed – that We may show you. And We settle in the wombs whom We will for a specified term, then We bring you out as a child, and then [We develop you] that you may reach your [time of] maturity. And among you is he who is taken in [early] death, and among you is he who is returned to the most decrepit [old] age so that he knows, after [once having] knowledge, nothing. And you see the earth barren, but when We send down upon it rain, it quivers and swells and grows [something] of every beautiful kind.”
Quran {22:5}

Who told Prophet Muhammad about embryonic development?
He was illiterate and lived in the desert 1400 years ago.
The only logical answer is that this information came from Allah.

Allah (God) said in the Quran:
“We will soon show them Our signs in the Universe and in their own souls, until it will become quite clear to them that it is the truth. Is it not sufficient as regards your Lord that He is a witness over all things?”
These verses describe what believers are encouraged to do after completing Hajj: stay mindful, reflect on life, and continue seeking what is good in both this world and the hereafter.
لَيْسَ عَلَيْكُمْ جُنَاحٌ أَن تَبْتَغُوا فَضْلًا مِّن رَّبِّكُمْ ۚ فَإِذَا أَفَضْتُم مِّنْ عَرَفَاتٍ فَاذْكُرُوا اللَّهَ عِندَ الْمَشْعَرِ الْحَرَامِ ۖ وَاذْكُرُوهُ كَمَا هَدَاكُمْ وَإِن كُنتُم مِّن قَبْلِهِ لَمِنَ الضَّالِّينَ﴾ [ البقرة: 198] There is no blame upon you for seeking bounty from your Lord [during Hajj]. But when you depart from ‘Arafat, remember Allah at al- Mash’ar al-Haram. And remember Him, as He has guided you, for indeed, you were before that among those astray.
ثُمَّ أَفِيضُوا مِنْ حَيْثُ أَفَاضَ النَّاسُ وَاسْتَغْفِرُوا اللَّهَ ۚ إِنَّ اللَّهَ غَفُورٌ رَّحِيمٌ﴾ [ البقرة: 199] Then depart from the place from where [all] the people depart and ask forgiveness of Allah. Indeed, Allah is Forgiving and Merciful.
And when you have completed your rites, remember Allah like your [previous] remembrance of your fathers or with [much] greater remembrance. And among the people is he who says, “Our Lord, give us in this world,” and he will have in the Hereafter no share.
But among them is he who says, “Our Lord, give us in this world [that which is] good and in the Hereafter [that which is] good and protect us from the punishment of the Fire.”
In it are clear signs [such as] the standing place of Abraham. And whoever enters it shall be safe. And [due] to Allah from the people is a pilgrimage to the House — for whoever is able to find thereto a way. But whoever disbelieves — then indeed, Allah is free from need of the worlds.
And [mention, O Muhammad], when We designated for Abraham the site of the House, [saying], “Do not associate anything with Me and purify My House for those who perform Tawaf and those who stand [in prayer] and those who bow and prostrate
That they may witness benefits for themselves and mention the name of Allah on known days over what He has provided for them of [sacrificial] animals. So eat of them and feed the miserable and poor
*At Your service, O Allah, at Your service. At Your service, You have no partner, at Your service. Indeed, all praise, all blessings, and all sovereignty belong to You. You have no partner.*

✦ What is the Meaning of Talbiyah?
Talbiyah is not merely words recited by the tongue. It is a **deep declaration of servitude and surrender to Allah**.
When a pilgrim says *“Labbayka Allahumma Labbayk”*, it means:
* I respond to Your call, O Allah * I come to You with my heart before my body * I leave behind worldly distractions for Your sake * I stand before You in full devotion and submission
—
✦ The Secret of Repetition
The repetition of *“Labbayk”* carries profound meanings:
* A renewed response to Allah again and again * A continuous affirmation of obedience * A heart that never turns away from its Lord
— ✦ The Spirit of Talbiyah
At its core, Talbiyah is the essence of **Tawheed (monotheism)**:
> *“La sharika lak” – You have no partner*
Meaning: the heart belongs only to Allah in love, devotion, and worship.
1. Who is Allah? 🌿❀══════════❀🌿 (59:23-24) 23: He is Allah beside Whom La Ilaha Illa Huwa (none has the right to be worshipped but He), the King, the Holy, the One Free from all defects, the Giver of security, the Watcher over His creatures, the All-Mighty, the Compeller, the Supreme. Glory be to Allah! High is He above all that they associate as partners with Him. 🌸༺❀༻🌸 24: He is Allah, the Creator, the Inventor of all things, the Bestower of forms. To Him belong the Best Names. All that is in the heavens and the earth glorify Him. And He is the All-Mighty, the All-Wise. 🌿❀══════════❀🌿 (20:14) “Verily! I am Allah! La ilaha illa Ana (none has the right to be worshipped but I), so worship Me, and perform As-Salat (Iqamat-as-Salat) for My remembrance.” 🌷━━━━━━━━━━🌷 (2:255) — Ayat-ul-Kursi Allah! La ilaha illa Huwa (none has the right to be worshipped but He), Al-Hayyul-Qayyum (the Ever-Living, the One Who sustains and protects all that exists). Neither slumber nor sleep overtakes Him. To Him belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth. Who is he that can intercede with Him except with His permission? He knows what happens to them in this world, and what will happen to them in the Hereafter. And they will never compass anything of His knowledge except that which He wills. His Kursi extends over the heavens and the earth, and He feels no fatigue in guarding and preserving them. And He is the Most High, the Most Great. 🌿🌸🌿 (35:13) He merges the night into the day, and He merges the day into the night. And He has subjected the sun and the moon; each runs its course for a term appointed. Such is Allah, your Lord; His is the Kingdom. And those whom you invoke besides Him own not even a Qitmir (the thin membrane over the date-stone). 🌼════❀════🌼 (3:18) Allah bears witness that La ilaha illa Huwa (none has the right to be worshipped but He), and the angels, and those having knowledge also bear witness. He maintains His creation in justice. La ilaha illa Huwa, the All-Mighty, the All-Wise. 🌿❀══════════❀🌿 2. Did you think that Allah created you without purpose? 🌷🌱🌷 (23:115) “Did you think that We had created you in play (without any purpose), and that you would not be brought back to Us?” 🌸━━━━━━━━━━🌸
3. For what did Allah create mankind? 🌿🪴🌿 (51:56) “And I (Allah) created not the jinn and mankind except that they should worship Me (Alone).” 🌹❀🌹
4. What did Allah command us to do? 🌱══════🌱 (4:58) “Verily! Allah commands that you should render back the trusts to those to whom they are due; and that when you judge between men, you judge with justice. Verily, how excellent is the teaching which He (Allah) gives you! Truly, Allah is Ever All-Hearer, All-Seer.” 🌸🍃🌸 (6:151) Say (O Muhammad ﷺ): “Come, I will recite what your Lord has prohibited you from: • Join not anything in worship with Him. • Be good and dutiful to your parents. • Kill not your children because of poverty — We provide sustenance for you and for them. • Come not near to Al-Fawahish (shameful sins and illegal sexual acts), whether committed openly or secretly. • Kill not anyone whom Allah has forbidden, except for a just cause (according to Islamic law). This He has commanded you, that you may understand.” 🌿❀══════════❀🌿
5. From where shall we seek guidance? Surah Al-Fatihah (1:1-6) 🌷༺✿༻🌷 1: In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. 2: All the praises and thanks be to Allah, the Lord of the ‘Alamin (mankind, jinn, and all that exists). 3: The Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. 4: The Only Owner (and the Only Ruling Judge) of the Day of Recompense. 5: You Alone we worship, and You Alone we ask for help. 6: Guide us to the Straight Way. 🌿❀══════════❀🌿
🌷 **(40:64)** Allah — it is He who has made for you the earth as a dwelling place, and the sky as a canopy; and has given you shape, and made your shapes beautiful, and has provided you with good things.
🌿 That is Allah, your Lord. So blessed be Allah, the Lord of the Alamin (mankind, jinn, and all that exists).
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🌸 ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🌹 **(39:6)** He created you all from a single person (Adam); then made from him his wife {Hawwa (Eve)}.
And He has sent down for you of cattle eight pairs: of the sheep two, of the goats two, of the oxen two, and of the camels two.
🌱 He creates you in the wombs of your mothers — creation after creation — in three veils of darkness.
Such is Allah, your Lord. His is the Kingdom.
✨ *La ilaha illa Huwa* (none has the right to be worshipped but He).
How then are you turned away?
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🌿 ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🌸 **(7:54)** Indeed, your Lord is Allah — Who created the heavens and the earth in six days, and then He rose over (Istawa) the Throne, in a manner that suits His Majesty.
🌙 He brings the night as a cover over the day, seeking it rapidly; and He created the sun, the moon, and the stars — subjected to His Command.
🌺 Surely, His is the Creation and the Commandment. Blessed is Allah, the Lord of the Alamin (mankind, jinn, and all that exists)!
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🌷 ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🌼 **(10:32)** Such is Allah, your Lord in truth.
So after the truth, what else can there be except error?
Hajj is a holy pilgrimage, made annually by Muslims, to the Masjid al-Haram (the Holy Mosque erected by the Prophet Abraham) in Mecca.
It is the fifth pillar of Islam and is expected to be completed once in a Muslim’s lifetime.
*The Hajj is undoubtedly the greatest journey that a Muslim will undertake in his life*.
A path of sacrifice, of self-discovery, and above all a path of servitude and obedience to Almighty God.
The Hajj pilgrimage also brings together the global Muslim community from all corners of the world, synchronized in profound ritual before the One God as one family despite their differences of race, ethnicity and age.
Looking at all these millions of Muslims makes you feel the magnificence of Islam.
How do millions of people come together with the same clothes, the same beliefs, the same fear, the same prayer?
They come together to worship a single God who has no partners or children.
Their source of information is the Qur’an. That hasn’t changed since 1400 years.
Allah told Prophet Ibraheem that this sacred House that he built will be a place of worship for the people. Allah told Prophet Ibraheem to call the people to perform pilgrimage, and He taught him what they will do when they arrive. Allah mentions this in the Qur’an (22:26-27):
-And (mention) when We assigned to Ibraheem the site of the House, (saying), “Do not associate anything with Me (in worship) and purify My House for those who circle (the Ka’bah), stand (in prayer), and bow and prostrate themselves. -Call (all) people to Hajj (the pilgrimage). They will come to you on foot and on every lean camel from every distant path.
Note ,how thousands of years later we’re doing what prophet Ibraheem told us to do, while his own people didn’t really listen. Every year, millions of Muslims travel all the way to the Ka’ba to perform Hajj, saying “Labbayka Allahuma labbayk” which means “Here I am, oh Allah, here I am.”
🖐 Note how if Allah wills that His message will spread, it will indeed spread. The message spread till our day and age even though Prophet Ibraheem was just in a small village calling people to Hajj, with no internet or phones to spread the news.
📝 Lesson: don’t think too much about who will listen to you and if anyone will actually listen. You just do what you can and Allah will create a way.
🖐 some people see Muslims and they don’t understand what we’re doing when we go to pilgrimage. We are re-enacting what Prophet Muhammad and Ibraheem did (both physical and spiritual footsteps). 💓
🖐 Another very interesting point is how Allah says in the Qur’an (14:35): And (mention) when Ibraheem prayed “My Lord! Make this city secure”. Look how nowadays it really is a peaceful place relative to the rest of the world. Even killing of insects unnecessarily is prohibited!
