17وَاللَّهُ أَنبَتَكُم مِنَ الأَرضِ نَباتًاAli Unal‘And God has caused you to grow from earth like a plant (in a mode of growth particular to you).1The verse alludes to the first origin of the father of humanity from the elements of the earth – soil, air, and water – and also the material origin of every human being, which are the same elements that are made into particular biological entities in human body. As Hamdi Yazır points out, the word nabātan, which comes at the end of the verse as an adverbial complement to “grow,” denotes the particular way of human creation and growth. So, the verse allows no room for any inclination toward the Darwinian Theory of Evolution.
