Abstract
The question of the miracle of the Qur'an is one of the most important issues in the Quranic sciences. One aspect of this miracle is the scientific miracle of the Holy Quran in the creation of man, which has been proven by advances in medical science and embryology and has been the focus of Quranic commentators and scholars, including Ayatollah Fazel Lankarani.
In this descriptive-analytic study, referring to the books of Qur'anic sciences and interpretive topics in the interpretation of verses 12-14 of Chapter Mu’minun and its comparison with the modern science, the study of the scientific miracle in the Holy Quran regarding to the creation of man from the perspective of Ayatollah Fazel Lankarani has been done. In interpreting these verses, he divides the stages of human creation into six stages: soil, sperm, germ-cell, embryonic lump, the creation of bones and muscles, and the creation of new moods. Therefore, he examines and scrutinizes the complete matching of the new discoveries of embryology with the steps mentioned in those verses as a scientific miracle of the Holy Quran. Knowing the views of these great contemporary thinkers and commentators can serve as a basis for further understanding the teachings of the Holy Quran as well as helping us to follow the path of bliss in the light of the teachings of this divine book.
