Transliteration:( Alam yaku nutfatam mim maniyyiny yumnaa )
“Was he not a drop of semen spilled forth?”
✅ Reminder of Man’s Humble Origin [36]
This verse reminds mankind of his lowly and humble beginning. Every human being is created from a drop of impure and insignificant fluid. Despite this origin, many become arrogant, forget their reality, and act with pride and rebellion against Allah (اللَّهُ ).
✅ Destroying Arrogance through Reflection
By reflecting on our initial creation, the illusion of superiority and pride should vanish. This verse humbles the human ego and emphasizes that greatness belongs only to Allah (اللَّهُ ), not to the creation that came from such a base beginning.
