Transliteration:( Wa Huwal lazee khalaqa minal maaa'i basharan fa ja'alahoo nasaban wa sihraa; wa kaana Rabbuka Qadeeraa )
98. This means from the sperms of the parents. He made bone structure from the sperm of the father and the meat from the sperm of the mother.Â
Therefore family lineage is from the father and not from the mother. Hazrat Adam, Bibi Hawa and Hazrat lesa (On them be peace) are excluded from this natural law and this separation is brought about by the Holy QURAN.
Thus law is one thing but Divine Power is another. We are duty bound to the law, not Allah Almighty. Regarding Hazrat Isa (On whom be peace) Allah Almighty says:"The likeness of lesa with Allah is like Adam. He created him of dust, then said, Be and was at once" (S3:V59).
In terms of the law fire should burn, but Divine Power is that it would not burn Hazrat Ebrahim (On whom be peace). Do not regard Allah Almighty as One to be governed by any law. It is obligatory upon us to bring faith on all His laws and His powerÂ
99. So that you would be able to perpetuate your progeny and become superior to the animals.

The tafsir of Surah Furqan verse 54 by Ibn Kathir is unavailable here.
Please refer to Surah Furqan ayat 51 which provides the complete commentary from verse 51 through 54.
(25:54) And He it is Who has created man from water and then produced from him two sorts of kindred: by descent and by marriage. Your Lord is All-Powerful.[69]
69. Here the miracle of the birth of man from a mere sperm drop and the procreation of his offspring from man and woman have been cited as a proof of Tauhid. Though both man and woman belong to the same genus, they are two species, having important common human characteristics but different physical structures and psychological traits. It is a proof of Tauhid that the All- Powerful Allah has used this difference for making the two as complements and not antagonists. It is also the design of the All-Powerful Creator that He is creating sons and daughters in the world in due proportion Then the sons marry and create blood relationships, and the daughters are married and become means of forming new relationships. This process goes on widening to produce families, tribes and nations belonging to the same race and bound by the same civilization.
The verse has also a subtle suggestion: The entire life is being run on the principle of difference. For example, the difference between the night and the day, the summer and the winter, etc. Therefore, O Muslims, you should patiently endure the differences you are having with your opponents for these are certain to produce good results.
