Updated on 10 September 2026 at 2:45 AM
📖 16 min readThis hadith belongs to the collection of the 40 hadiths of Imam an-Nawawi (may Allah have mercy on him), the most studied hadith compilation in the world: foundations of faith, worship and character, all authentic narrations.
Of this word (meaning: then We made him a sperm-drop in a firm lodging): its tafsir was narrated from Ibn Mas'ud: al-A'mash reports Khaythama, from Ibn Mas'ud, may Allah be pleased with him, who said: "when the sperm-drop falls in the womb: it flies in each of its hair and nail: then stays forty days: then descends in the womb: and becomes an 'alaqa." He said: that is its gathering. Ibn Abi Hatim and others extracted it. And the gathering's tafsir was also narrated raised: in another meaning: at-Tabarani and Ibn Mandah in his oneness-book extracted: Malik ibn al-Huwayrith's hadith: the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "when Allah, the Most High, wills to create a servant: the man uniting the woman: his water flies in every vein and limb of hers: then on the seventh day Allah, the Most High, gathers it: then presents it in every vein of his: Adam-less:
"In what form He willed, He composed you."
Hud, 11
Ibn Mandah said: its chain connected: famous: Abu Isa's (at-Tirmidhi) and an-Nasa'i's way and others. Ibn Jarir, Ibn Abi Hatim and at-Tabarani extracted: Muthar ibn al-Haytham's narration: Musa ibn Ali ibn Riah: father: grandfather: the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said to his grandfather: O so-and-so! what was born you? He said: O Messenger of Allah! what might be born me: boy or girl? He said: whom will he resemble? He said: who knows whom he resembles: mother or father? The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "say never thus: when the sperm-drop settles in the womb: Allah brings it all kinship between it and Adam: read you not the verse:
"In what form He willed, He composed you?"
Hud, 11
He said: shaped you." Chain weak: Muthar ibn al-Haytham very weak: al-Bukhari said: unauthenticated hadith: Musa ibn Ali from father: father became Muslim only in Abu Bakr as-Siddiq's era, may Allah be pleased with him: meaning: no companionship. Testifying this meaning: the Prophet's word (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) to him who said: my wife bore a black boy: he said: "perhaps a vein drew him out."
His word: then becomes 'alaqa like: meaning forty days. 'Alaqa: blood-clot. Then becomes mudgha like: meaning forty days: mudgha: flesh-piece. Then Allah sends an angel: soul-blowing: commanded four words: provision-, deed-, term-writing: wretched or happy.
Hadith indicates: moving one hundred twenty days in three phases: each forty a phase: first forty sperm-drop: second 'alaqa: third mudgha: after one hundred twenty the angel souls-blown: four words written.
Allah, the Most High, mentioned Quran-many-places the embryo's phases-movement: the Most High's word:
"O people! Doubting resurrection: created you from earth: then sperm-drop: then 'alaqa: then formed and unformed mudgha: explaining you: fixing in wombs what We will till a named term."
Al-Hajj, 5
Three phases mentioned: sperm-drop, 'alaqa, mudgha, Quran-multiple-places. Another place more mentioned: believers-sura:
"We created man from earth-sullala: then made him a sperm-drop in a firm lodging: then created of the drop an 'alaqa: of the 'alaqa a mudgha: of the mudgha bones: clothed the bones flesh: produced him another creation: blessed Allah, best of creators!"
Al-Mou'minoun, 12-14
Seven turns Allah mentioned this verse for Adam's-son's creation before soul-blowing.
Ibn Abbas, may Allah please both, said: Adam's son created of seven: reciting the verse. Asked 'azl: recited: "shall anyone be created till this attribute passes?" Version: "shall a soul die till this creation-passing?"
Rifa'a ibn Rafi' reported: Ali, az-Zubayr, Sa'd, Prophet-companions-group (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) sat Umar-near: 'azl-discussing: no-harm saying. A man: "they claim it the lesser buried-alive girl?" Ali, may Allah be pleased with him: "not buried-alive till seven-turns-passing: earth-sullala: sperm-drop: 'alaqa: mudgha: bones: flesh: another-creation?" Umar, may Allah be pleased with him: "true-spoken: Allah life-prolonging!" Ad-Darqutni reports al-Mu'talif wal-Mukhtalif.
Jurists-category dispensed woman belly-content dropping pre-soul-blowing: 'azl-likening. Weak saying: embryo formed-child: maybe imagined: 'azl no-child-at-all: conception-preventing means: conception may not be prevented Allah willing creation: Prophet's word (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) 'azl-asked: "no harm non-withdrawing: no breathed soul: Allah its creator." Companions explicit: 'alaqa-becoming: woman dropping not permitted: formed-child: unlike unformed sperm-drop: maybe never.
Ibn Mas'ud's hadith, may Allah be pleased with him, some narrations: bones-mention: bone forty days: Imam Ahmad extracted: Ali ibn Zayd's narration: "I heard Abu Ubayda narrate: Abdullah said: Allah's Messenger (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: 'the sperm-drop in the womb forty days unchanged: forties-passed: 'alaqa: mudgha likewise: bones likewise: Allah, the Most High, creation-completing-willing: angel sending.'" Rest-hadith-mentioned. 'Asim's hadith: Abu Wa'il: Ibn Mas'ud, may Allah be pleased with him: Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him): "sperm-drop womb-settling: forty nights sperm-drop: forty 'alaqa: forty nights bones: Allah bones-flesh-clothing." Ahmad's narration indicates: flesh-clothing only post-one-hundred-sixty. Doubtlessly wrong: one-hundred-twenty soul-blown doubtlessly: coming-mentioned. Ali ibn Zayd Jud'an's son: un-arguable. Hudhayfa ibn Asid's hadith: flesh-bones-creation second-forty-beginning: Muslim's Sahih: Hudhayfa ibn Asid: Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him): "forty-two nights sperm-drop-passing: Allah angel-sending: shaping: hearing-, sight-, skin-, flesh-, bones-creating: then: O Lord! male or female? Lord decides willing: angel writes: then: O Lord! term? Lord willing-saying: angel writes: then: O Lord! provision? Lord deciding: angel writes: angel exiting sheet-in-hand: commanded-adding-not: diminishing-not." Apparent: embryo-shaping: hearing-, sight-, skin-, flesh-, bones-creation: second-forty-beginning: second-forty flesh-bones thus. Some interpreted: angel 'alaqa-dividing parts: skin-, flesh-, bones-portioning: existence-pre-measuring: hadith-apparent-contradicting: rather shaping, all-parts-creating. Creation maybe shaping-dividing pre-flesh-bones-existence: some-fetuses-without-others. Malik ibn al-Huwayrith's preceding hadith: nutfa-seventh-day shaping too: the Most High's word:
"We created man from a mixed sperm-drop: trying him."
Al-Insane, 2
Predecessors-part: drop's mixed: therein-veins. Ibn Mas'ud, may Allah be pleased with him: its mixed: its veins.
Medicine-scholars: corresponding-mention: semen-womb-falling: froth six-seven days: drop imagining womb-drawing-not: then drawing: lines-dots-beginning three-days-later: day-advancing, day-delaying: then six-days-after: 'alaqa-time-fifteenth: blood-all-spreading: 'alaqa-becoming: members visibly-distinguishing: parts separating, spinal-marrow-moisture-stretching: nine-days-after head-shoulders-separating: limbs-fingers: some-apparent some-hidden-distinction. Least male-imagining: thirty days. Moderate embryo-imagining: thirty-five: forty-five maybe. Miscarriages: male thirty-pre never mentioned: female forty-pre. Accordant Hudhayfa ibn Asid's hadith: second-forty-creation, flesh-becoming.
Some carried Ibn Mas'oud's hadith: first-forty semen-description-preponderating: second 'alaqa-description: third mudgha-description: creation-complete, shaping-done though. Ibn Mas'oud's hadith shaping-time-mentioning-not. Ibn Mas'oud himself: shaping maybe pre-third-forty: Ash-Sha'bi reports Alqama: Ibn Mas'oud, may Allah please all three: womb-settling-drop: angel-coming: palm-taking: "O Lord! formed or unformed? Unformed-said: no-nasma: wombs blood-casting: formed-said: O Lord! male or female? wretched or happy? term, trace, which-land-dying? To the drop said: your-Lord-who? Allah. Provider-who? Allah. Book-go: this-drop's-story-therein-finding: formed-becoming: term-living: provision-eating: trace-treading: term-coming: dying: that-dust-buried." Ash-Sha'bi reciting the verse:
"O people! Doubting resurrection: created you from earth: then sperm-drop: then 'alaqa: then formed and unformed mudgha."
Al-Hajj, 5
Mudgha-reaching: fourth-creation-tipping: nasma-becoming: unformed: wombs blood-casting: formed: nasma-tipped. Ibn Abi Hatim, others extracting. Ibn Mas'oud, may Allah be pleased with him, another-angle: pre-eighty-days no-shaping. As-Suddi reports Abu Malik: Abu Salih: Ibn Abbas, may Allah please both: Murra al-Hamdani: Ibn Mas'oud: Prophet-companions-folk: the Mighty, Majestic's word:
"He who shapes you in the wombs as He wills."
Al Imran, 6
He said: "drop-wombs-falling: body-flying forty days: 'alaqa forty: mudgha forty: forming-reaching: Allah, the Most High, shaping-angel-sending: dust-between-fingers angel-coming: mudgha-mixing: kneading: commanded-shaping: saying: male or female? wretched or happy? provision? age? trace, afflictions? Allah, blessed, Most High, saying: angel-writing: body-dying: dust-taken-place-buried." Ibn Jarir at-Tabari tafsir-extracting: as-Suddi affair-disputed: Imam Ahmad multiple-chains-one-tafsir-gathering denying: al-Waqidi multiple-chains-one-hadith-gathering he, others denying.
Jurist-categories: narration-apparent-taking: Ibn Mas'oud's raised-hadith-interpreting: child-creation-least-discernible: eighty-one days: mudgha third-forty-only: mudgha-pre-unformed. Our companions, ash-Shafi'i's companions: this-root: 'idda-ending-not, umm walad freeing-not: formed-mudgha-but: least forming-imagining: eighty-one days. Ahmad, mercy on him, 'alaqa-saying: blood: formation-un-discernible.
Unformed-mudgha: 'idda-ending?, umm-walad-freeing?: two sayings: two Ahmad narrations. No-apparent-design: hidden: expert-women-known: testimony-accepted: testified. Four-months-completion-post, pre-no-difference: scholars-most. Ahmad explicit: Khalq narration: companions. Son Salih: creation-discernible-child: four-in. Ash-Sha'bi: fourth-creation-tipped, formed: 'idda-ending, slave-girl-freeing: four-months. Hanbal likewise: umm walad miscarrying: complete-formation: freed, 'idda-ending: fourth-creation-entering four-months: soul-blown. Group-narration contradicting. Ahmad narration: creation-discernible: difference-none: slave-freed. Group transferring: 'alaqa child-discernible: slave-freed: an-Nakha'i's saying: ash-Shafi'i saying-attributed. Companions-some: Ahmad-narration regularizing: 'idda-ending-also.
All: 'alaqa-formation-possible-built: Hudhayfa ibn Asid's preceding-hadith-arguing: unless: Hudhayfa's hadith flesh-bones-formation-only-indicating: second-forty-maybe: 'alaqa-state-during-not. Consideration-matter: Allah knows best. Physicians' mention: 'alaqa forming, designing: midwives testifying. Malik ibn al-Huwayrith's hadith: nutfa-state shaping testifying: Allah knows best.
Ibn Mas'oud's hadith remaining: mudgha-becoming-post: angel-sending: four-words-writing: soul-blowing: one-hundred-twenty-post-all. Writing, soul-blowing-between: narrations' wordings ordering-differing: al-Bukhari's Sahih: angel-sent: four-words-commanded: soul-blown-then. Narration: soul-blowing-writing-delaying explicit. Al-Bayhaqi's al-Qadar-book-extracted: angel-sent: soul-blowing: four-words-commanded-then. Narration: blowing-writing-preceding explicit: transmitters' meaning-narrating-treatment: or tidings-ordering-only: told-ordering-not. Any-case: Ibn Mas'oud's hadith, may Allah be pleased with him: soul-blowing-delaying, angel-writing: four-months-post, third-forty-completing.
Soul-blowing: companions, may Allah please them, explicitly: four-months-post-only: Ibn Mas'oud's apparent-indicating: Zayd ibn Ali father: Ali, may Allah be pleased with him: sperm-drop-four-months-completing: angel-sent: darknesses-soul-blowing: the Most High's word:
"Then produced him another creation."
Al-Mou'minoun, 14
Ibn Abi Hatim extracting: chain interrupted. Al-Lalika'i: Ibn Abbas, may Allah please both: "sperm-drop-womb-falling: four-months-ten staying: soul-blown: forty-nights staying: angel-sent: nape-hollow-prodding: wretched or happy-writing." Chain consideration-mattering. Therein: soul-blowing four-months-ten-days-delaying.
Ibn Mas'oud-reported: Ahmad's madhhab building
Imam Ahmad: famous-madhhab Ibn Mas'oud's hadith-apparent-building: child: four-months-post-soul-blown: four-months-completion-post-falling: prayed-over: soul-blown, died. Sa'id ibn al-Musayyab likewise: ash-Shafi'i's, Ishaq's saying-one. Multiple Ahmad-reporting: "four-months-ten-reaching: ten soul-blown: prayed-over." Abu al-Harith narration: "nasma sperm-drop forty nights: 'alaqa forty: mudgha forty: bone-flesh-then: four-months-ten-completing: soul-blown." Narration-apparent: four-months-ten-completion-post-only: Ibn Abbas-reported. Ahmad's preceding-narrations: four-completion-post ten-span soul-blowing-only: his known-position. Ibn al-Musayyab likewise death-'idda-asked: four-months-ten-making: ten-why? "soul-blown therein."
Medicine-folk: embryo thirty-five-day-imagining: seventy-moving: two-hundred-ten-day birth: seven-months: imagining, birth advancing-delaying maybe. Forty-five-day-imagining: ninety-moving: two-hundred-seventy-day birth: nine-months: Allah knows best.
Angel-writing: Ibn Mas'oud's hadith: four-months-post too: preceding. Two authentic collections: Anas: Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him): "Allah womb angel-entrusting saying: O Lord! sperm-drop! 'alaqa! mudgha! Allah creation-deciding-willing: saying: O Lord! male or female? wretched or happy? provision? term? mother's-belly-written-thus." Apparent: Ibn Mas'oud's hadith-according: duration-estimation-lacking. Hudhayfa ibn Asid's preceding-hadith: writing second-forty-beginning-indicating. Muslim other-wording: Hudhayfa ibn Asid: Prophet-transmitting (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him): "angel sperm-drop-entering womb-settling-post: forty, forty-five-nights: saying: O Lord! wretched or happy? both-written: male or female? written: deed, trace, term, provision-written: sheets-folding: naught-adding, naught-diminishing." Muslim another-narration: "sperm-drop womb-falling forty-nights: angel-coming-upon: saying: O Lord! male or female?" Hadith-mentioned. Muslim another: "forty-some-nights." Ahmad's Musnad: Jabir: Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him): "sperm-drop womb-settling: forty-days, forty-nights: angel-sent saying: [O Lord! provision? answered: term? answered: male or female! knowing: then saying:] O Lord! wretched or happy? knowing." Ash-Sha'bi's Alqama-reported: Ibn Mas'oud: preceding-word: apparent: nutfa-while angel-sent. Ibn Mas'oud two-other-angles: "Allah, the Mighty and Majestic: Adam's-children-deeds daily-presenting: three-hours-viewing: wombs-bringing: three-hours-viewing: His word:
"Shapes you in the wombs as He wills."
Al Imran, 6
His word:
"Grants willing females: willing males: males-females pairing: willing stering: Knowing, Powerful."
Ash-Shura, 49-50
provisions-bringing: three-hours-viewing: angels three-hours-glorifying. Your-affair, Lord's-affair: womb-viewing-duration-timing-lacking." Companions-group: writing second-forty: al-Lalika'i: Abd Allah ibn Amr ibn al-As: "sperm-drop woman's-womb forty-nights-staying: angel-coming: prodding: Rahman, the Mighty and Majestic, ascending: saying: create: best-of-creators! Allah deciding: angel-handing: O Lord! miscarried or complete? informed: term-deficient, complete? informed: one, twin? informed: male, female? informed: wretched, happy? informed: O Lord! provision-cutting? term-with-provision-cutting: both-descending: hand-soul-holder: world-attaining: portioned-only." Ibn Abi Hatim: Abu Dharr, may Allah be pleased with him: "semen womb forty-nights-staying: souls-angel-coming: Jabbar, the Mighty and Majestic, ascending: O Lord! male or female? Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, deciding: O Lord! wretched, happy? before-him-met-writing." Abu Dharr reciting infamies-reciprocity-sura-opening: Most-High-word:
"Shaped you: forms well-shaped: Him-ward destination."
At-Taghaboun, 3
All: Hudhayfa ibn Asid's hadith-according. Ibn Abbas, may Allah please both, preceding: writing soul-blowing-forty-nights-post: chain-consideration.
Some: hadiths, athars Ibn-Mas'oud's-reconciling: writing-twice-establishing. Yet: heaven-one, mother's-belly-one-saying. Most-apparent: Allah-knows: once: fetuses-varying: some: first-forty-post-writing: some third-forty-post. Ibn Mas'oud's hadith "then"-word: tidings-ordering: told-ordering-not-saying: Allah-knows-best. Latecomers: writing second-forty-beginning-preferencing: Hudhayfa ibn Asid's hadith-indicating: Ibn Mas'oud's hadith mention mudgha-mention-post-delaying: "then"-worded-though: three-phases-mention-cutting-preventing: drop, 'alaqa, mudgha: three one-train-mentioning: pleasing-best: conjoint-delaying: conjoint-parts-preceding-though: citing Most-High-word:
"Began man's creation earth: offspring vile-water-sullala-making: completing: His-spirit-blowing: hearing, sights, hearts-making: little thanking."
As-Sajda, 7-9
Man-meaning: Adam, peace upon him. Completion, soul-blowing: offspring vile-water-sullala-making-pre: intent Allah's, the Mighty, Majestic, power: Adam's-creation-beginning, offspring-creation: one-other-conjoint-mention: Adam's-completion, soul-blowing-delaying: clay-creation-offspring-creation-intermediate-though: Allah-knows-best.
Arrived: writing embryo's-eyes-between: al-Bazzar's Musnad: Ibn Umar, may Allah please both: Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him): "Allah nasma-creating: wombs-angel saying: O Lord! male, female? Allah affair-deciding: O Lord! wretched, happy? deciding: eyes-between met-writing: afflicting-catastrophe-till." Ibn Umar-mawquf-reported: raised-not. Hudhayfa ibn Asid's preceding-hadith explicit: angel sheet-writing: sheet-and eyes-between-writing-perhaps.
Reported: writing-accompanying: fetus-with standing-attributes-creating. Aisha-reported, may Allah be pleased with her: Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him): "Allah creature-creating-willing: angel-sending: womb-entering: O Lord! what? boy: girl: willing-womb-creating: O Lord! wretched, happy? [willing-saying]: O Lord! term? such-such: [O Lord! provision? such-such]: O Lord! creations? attributes? such-such: naught womb-with-him-uncreated." Abu Dawud al-Qadar-book, al-Bazzar Musnad-extracting.

He said: "deed! each created-for-facilitated: happiness-people: happiness-people's-deed-facilitated: wretchedness-people: wretchedness-people's-deed-facilitated." Reciting:
"Giving, guarding, finest-believing: ease-facilitating: miserly, self-sufficient, finest-denying: difficulty-facilitating."
Ash-Shams, 9-10
Hadith: happiness, wretchedness prior-book-written: deeds-measured: each created-deeds-facilitated: happiness-, wretchedness-causing. Two authentic collections: Imran ibn Husayn: man: paradise-people fire-people-known? "yes": workers-working-why? "each created-, facilitated-for-working."
Meaning Prophet-reported (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) multiple-faces: Ibn Mas'oud's hadith: happiness, wretchedness deeds'-sealings-by.

Allah's Messenger (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him): "fire-people's-he."

Allah's Messenger (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him): "man paradise-people's-deed-working: people-apparent: fire-people's: man fire-people's-deed-working: apparent: paradise-people's." al-Bukhari narration-adding: "deeds sealings-but-by."
His word: people-apparent-when: allusion: affair-interior-otherwise: evil-sealing: servant's-hidden-interior-schemes: people-unseeing: ill-deed-side: hidden-trait: death-sealing-evil-imposing. Likewise: man fire-people's-deed-working: interior hidden-goodness-trait: life-end-overcoming: good-sealing-imposing. Abd al-Aziz ibn Abi Rawwad said: "death-attending man: testimony-recited: no-deity-but-Allah: last-word-saying: you-saying: disbelieving: dying-thereon." Enquired: wine-addicted. Abd al-Aziz saying: sins-guarding: felling-they.
Sum: sealings predecessors'-inheritance: prior-book-preceding-written-all. Hence: predecessors' evil-sealings-fear-strengthening: some predecessors-mention-troubled. Said: righteous-hearts sealings-hanging: sealing-what-saying: near-ones' hearts predecessors-hanging: preceded-what-saying. Companion some death-weeping: asked: Allah's-Messenger-heard (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him): "Allah, the Most High, creation-seized: two-handfuls: these-paradise: these-fire: which-handful-knowing-not." Predecessor-some: "eyes-weeping-making: prior-book-weeping-making!" Sufyan righteous-man-to: "Allah's-knowledge-you-upon: weeping-ever-made?" Man: "leaving-me: rejoicing-never." Sufyan: predecessors-sealings-anxiety-strengthening: weeping: "Umm-al-Kitab-wretched-being-fearing." Weeping: "death-time faith-stripping-fearing." Malik ibn Dinar night-length-standing: beard-gripping: "O Lord! paradise-dweller fire-dweller-knowing: which-abode: Malik's-place?" Hatim al-Asamm said: "heart four-dangers-empty: deluded: wretchedness-un-protected: first: covenant-day-danger: paradise-these-saying, caring-not: fire-these, caring-not: which-party-knowing-not. Second: three-darknesses-created: king wretchedness-happiness-called: wretched, happy-of-knowing-not. Third: emergence-terror-mention: Allah's-pleasure-rejoicing, displeasure-knowing-not. Fourth: people-emerging-scattered-day: which-two-ways-walking-knowing-not." Sahl al-Tustari said: "murid sins'-trial-fearing: knower disbelief's-trial-fearing!"
Hence: companions: after righteous-predecessors: hypocrisy-self-fearing: anxiety, affliction-strengthening: believer lesser-hypocrisy-fearing: sealing-time-overcoming, greater-hypocrisy-exiting-fearing: preceding: evil-hidden-schemes: evil-sealing-imposing.
