Concept:The verse from Suratul Alaq tells the origin of man in Islamic belief.
Explanation:In Suratul Alaq (Q.96:2), Allah says: “Khalaqa al-insana min ‘alaq.”
This translates as: “He created man from a clot.”
The Arabic word “‘alaq” means a clinging clot, a small lump of congealed blood.
Thus, the verse clearly identifies man’s creation at the initial stage from a clot.
According to this verse, man was not created from clay, nor in the best of forms, nor as Allah’s vicegerent.
Hence, the correct answer is from a clot.
Answer:From a clot.
