Collected by Qurʾān
quran:75:39

And made of him two mates, the male and the female.

and made of it, of the drop of semen that became a blood-clot, then an embryo, a ˹small˺ mass of flesh, the two sexes, the two kinds, the male and the female, at times coming together and at times each being on their own.

القرآن:٧٥:٣٩

فَجَعَلَ مِنْهُ الزَّوْجَيْنِ الذَّكَرَ وَالْأُنْثَىٰ

{فجعل منه} من المني الذي صار علقة قطعة دم ثم مضغة أي قطعة لحم {الزوجين} النوعين {الذكر والأنثى} يجتمعان تارة وينفرد كل منهما عن الآخر تارة.

quran:92:3

And ˹by˺ He who created the male and female,

and ˹by˺ the One Who (mā either functions as man, ‘the One Who’, or it is related to a verbal action) created the male and the female, Adam and Eve, or every male and female — the hermaphrodite, although problematic for us, is ˹in fact˺ either male or female according to God, and therefore a person ˹actually˺ commits perjury if he speaks with one ˹thinking that˺ because he has sworn not to speak with a male or a female; ˹he may do so with a hermaphrodite˺.

القرآن:٩٢:٣

وَمَا خَلَقَ الذَّكَرَ وَالْأُنْثَىٰ

{وما} بمعنى من أو مصدرية {خلق الذكر والأنثى} آدم وحواء وكل ذكر وكل أنثى، والخنثى المشكل عندنا ذكر أو أنثى عند الله تعالى فيحنث بتكليمه من حلف لا يكلم لا يكلم ذكرا ولا أنثى.
