SENSE OF Hearing AND SIGHT
The first sense to build up in a developing human embryo is hearing. The fetus can hear sounds after the 24th week. consequently, the sense of sight is developed and by the 28th week, the retina becomes sensitive to light. Consider the following QURANIC verses related to the development of the senses in the embryo: “And He gave you (the faculties of) hearing and sight and feeling (and understanding).” [Al-QURAN 32:9]
“Verily We created Man from a drop Of mingled sperm, In order to try him: So We gave him (the gifts), Of Hearing and Sight.” [Al-QURAN 76:2]
“It is He Who has created for you (the faculties of) Hearing, sight, feeling and understanding: little thanks it is you give!” [Al-QURAN 23:78]
In all these verses the sense of hearing is mentioned before that of sight. Thus the QURANIC explanation matches with the discoveries in recent embryology.
