The sex of a fetus is determined by the nature of the sperm and not the ovum. The sex of the
child, whether female or male, depends on whether the 23rd pair of chromosomes is XX or XY
respectively. Primarily sex determination occurs at fertilization and depends upon the type of
sex chromosome in the sperm that fertilizes an ovum. If it is an ‘X’ bearing sperm that fertilizes
the ovum, the fetus is a female and if it is a ‘Y’ bearing sperm then the fetus is a male. “That He
did create In pairs – male and female, From a seed when lodged (In its place).” [Al-Qur’aan
53:45-46]
The Arabic word nutfah means a minute quantity of liquid and tumnâ means ejaculated or
planted. Therefore nutfah specifically refers to sperm because it is ejaculated. The Qur’aan
says: “Was he not a drop of sperm emitted (In lowly form)? “Then did he become A clinging clot;
Then did (Allah) make And fashion (him) In due proportion. “And of him He made Two sexes,
male And female.” [Al-Qur’aan 75:37-39]
Here again it is mentioned that a small quantity (drop) of sperm (indicated by the word nutfatan
min maniyyin) which comes from the man is responsible for the sex of the fetus.
Mothers-in-law in the Indian subcontinent, by and large prefer having male grandchildren and
often blame their daughters-in-law if the child is not of the desired sex. If only they knew that the
determining factor is the nature of the male sperm and not the female ovum! If they were to
blame anybody, they should blame their sons and not their daughters-in-law since both the
Qur’aan and Science hold that it is the male fluid that is responsible for the sex of the child!
