[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's also important to note that Dr. Moore's opinion is but one voice. For instance, a hugely influential work of Joseph Needham "A History of Embryology" devotes over fifty pages to the works of Galen, Aristotle, Hippocrates and other Greeks, but dispenses with the Arab achievements in this area in under one page, opining that the Arab scientific thought, though it contributed so much to optics and astronomy, did not contribute much to embryology.

We are discussing the embryology as explained in the Quran, not Arab scientific thought. The Quran revelations of 
1)three stages of pregnancy 2) reference to what we now identify as spermatozoa,  and 3) leech like clot seem to be compelling because Galen, Hippocrates, the Chinese, Romans did not make mention of these. The Qurans revelations may not have influenced Arab scientific contribution and thus, Arab may not have made contributions to embryology, but why confuse that with the Quran. Apples to boxcars.
