What is the authenticity of the hadith: "Indeed, when Allah Almighty intends to create a servant, and a man cohabits with a woman, his fluid spreads into every vein and organ of hers. Then, on the seventh day, Allah Almighty gathers it, and then brings it forth in every vein for him, without Adam," and how is it understood in light of modern science to avert any perceived contradiction?
The Hadith of Malik ibn Al-Huwayrith concerning the creation of the soul (nasamah) states: "When Allah, Glorified be His Name, wills to create a soul, and a man cohabits with a woman, his fluid spreads throughout every vein and nerve in her. When the seventh day arrives, Allah brings forth for him every vein between him and Adam. Then He recites: 'In whatever form He wills, He has assembled you [or put you together]'" (Quran 82:8). This hadith was narrated by Al-Tabarani and Ibn Mandah, and graded hasan (good) by Al-Albani.
