[Machine] A Jewish man passed by the Messenger of Allah ﷺ while he was speaking to his companions. The Quraysh said to the Jewish man, "O Jewish man, he claims to be a prophet." The Jewish man responded, "I will ask him about something that only a prophet knows." So he came and sat down, then he asked, "O Muhammad, from what is mankind created?" Muhammad replied, "O Jewish man, mankind is created from both the sperm of men and the sperm of women. As for the sperm of men, it is thick and includes bones and nerves, while the sperm of women is thin and includes flesh and blood." The Jewish man stood up and said, "This is what others before you used to say."  

أحمد:٤٤٣٨حَدَّثَنَا حُسَيْنُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو كُدَيْنَةَ عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ السَّائِبِ عَنْ الْقَاسِمِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ قَالَ

مَرَّ يَهُودِيٌّ بِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَهُوَ يُحَدِّثُ أَصْحَابَهُ قَالَ فَقَالَتْ قُرَيْشٌ يَا يَهُودِيُّ إِنَّ هَذَا يَزْعُمُ أَنَّهُ نَبِيٌّ فَقَالَ لَأَسْأَلَنَّهُ عَنْ شَيْءٍ لَا يَعْلَمُهُ إِلَّا نَبِيٌّ قَالَ فَجَاءَ حَتَّى جَلَسَ ثُمَّ قَالَ يَا مُحَمَّدُ مِمَّ يُخْلَقُ الْإِنْسَانُ؟ قَالَ يَا يَهُودِيُّ مِنْ كُلٍّ يُخْلَقُ مِنْ نُطْفَةِ الرَّجُلِ وَمِنْ نُطْفَةِ الْمَرْأَةِ فَأَمَّا نُطْفَةُ الرَّجُلِ فَنُطْفَةٌ غَلِيظَةٌ مِنْهَا الْعَظْمُ وَالْعَصَبُ وَأَمَّا نُطْفَةُ الْمَرْأَةِ فَنُطْفَةٌ رَقِيقَةٌ مِنْهَا اللَّحْمُ وَالدَّمُ فَقَامَ الْيَهُودِيُّ فَقَالَ هَكَذَا كَانَ يَقُولُ مَنْ قَبْلَكَ

"يَا يَهُودِىُّ: مِنْ كُلٍّ يُخْلَقُ الإِنْسَانُ: مِنْ نُطفَةِ الرَّجُلِ وَمِنْ نُطفِة الْمَرْأَةِ، فَأَمَّا نُطفَةُ الرَّجُلِ فَنُطفَةٌ غَلِيظَةٌ فَمِنْهَا العَظْمُ والعَصَبُ، وَأَمَّا نُطفَةٌ الْمَرْأةُ فنُطفَةٌ رَقِيْقَةٌ فَمِنْهَا اللَّحْمُ والدَّمُ".
