Assalamu alykum,
You know for sure the following verse: Then We made the sperm into a clot of congealed blood; then of that clot We made a (foetus) lump; then we made out of that lump bones and clothed the bones with flesh; then we developed out of it another creature. So blessed be God, the best to create! (23:14).
I showed some people the verse and they said that in fact muscles develop before (or at the same) the bones.
Well, gender determination is not really about which parent's substance prevails over the other, is it?
If 53:46 says sperm determines the gender, Muhammad could have said the same in the hadith..
You are into splitting hair?.. I suppose that is one does when he is confounded?.... there were no microscopes then to determine Corpus Luteum or sperm.
Gender determination a result of sperm donating its X or Y, mentioned in the Quran and hadith. All fetuses are female at first until 9 to 12 weeks, when transforming into a male becomes more apparent...
cheers

Eh, just close the deamn thing. It serves no purpose anymore, apart from Trumble's debate with imam, which I don't think will continue.
the original question was answered a while ago.

We were just going round in circles on every point but one. In that instance he was quite right in stating that, not knowing Arabic, I was in no real position to press the point so, for sake of argument, I conceded it rather than continue to argue 'second hand'.
