**Let man look at the substance he is created from! Created from the surging fluid which springs from between the spine and the ribs! Indeed, He is capable of bringing man back to life (after his death). **… Al-Qur’an, Surah Al-Tariq 86:5 - 8Why is the Kuran a miracle? I disagree it has passed the scientific test, now what? When sperm starts being made in the backbone, we’ll have another chat.
Besides, it’s not that hard for a book to have no discrepancies; if that’s the straw you’re basing your faith on

This matter regarding where semen emanates from is really an old issue which the detractors of Islam often bring up.
Anyhow, this is the short answer to their “refutation” of this particular passage of the Qur’an:
Semen DOES NOT COME from the testicles, period! It is neither produced in the testicles, nor does it come from the testicles during the time of coitus!
And that is a scientific fact! Thirteen centuries ago even the scientific community thought that semen is produced in the testicles. It is a pity that many people still think so even today.
The semen contains many things. Between 95 to 98% of it consists of fructose, prostaglandin hormones, metal and salt ions, lipids, steroid hormones, enzymes, basic amines, and amino acids. All those are produced from the glands located in abdomen. Between 2 to 5% of it consists of the sperms produced in the testicles.
Does the Quran say the semen is produced in the kidneys?
Absolutely not!
It says simply that man is created from the liquid that is ejaculated. During coitus that liquid springs from the abdomen (“between the ribcage and the spine”). That is a scientific fact!
1,400 years ago, even doctors thought semen springs from the testicles during coitus. They were wrong of course! Recent discoveries have proven them wrong!
Semen is stored in vesicles that lie in the abdomen. From there it is ejaculated during coitus. Lay people still think that the ejaculate comes from the testicles.
The Quran does not say where semen is produced. Just where it comes from during coitus!
In fact, if the Quran had said that the semen is produced in the abdomen, (“between the ribcage and the spine”), and not the testicles, it would still be accurate. At least 95 to 98% accurate! Only 2-5% of the semen is contributed by the testicles. The rest is produced in the glands located in the pelvic cavity.
But the Quran does not say where the semen is produced, because the Quran is not 98% accurate. It is 100% ACCURATE!
And so, not surprisingly at all for those who believe, what the Qur’an has stated 1,400 years ago has turned out to be scientific facts which are testable and which has only recently been discovered to be true by modern science.

If anyone wishes to dispute the truth of the article, remember again that what is written in it are scientific facts which are testable and verifiable.
