We're going to react to the shocking truth about sex chromosomes. So with this title you're probably wondering why I react to such a video in the first place. The only reason why I do is because it is on the channel Rational Believer. As we all know, Rational Believer is a huge Islamic channel and therefore today we're going to intertwine Islam and science. Before we start the video, as always guys, if you enjoy the content, leave me a thumbs up, subscribe to the channel if you haven't already and check out the links in the description box to further support my work. And now with no further ado, let's have a look. The thinking that mothers are responsible for determining the gender of a child was prevalent up until 20th century and it is mostly because in those societies people wanted to have boys instead of girls because they used to think that women are inferior to men and having daughters would lower their status in society. This negative view was so common among people that until the 20th century even some of the priests and Christian churches considered women as soulless creatures. And in pre-Islamic era amongst the Arabs people used to persecute the mothers because of giving birth to a daughter and bury their daughters alive and some of them kept the daughters with sadness and accepting the shame in society. Yes, this was absolutely shocking to me when I first found out about it pre-Islamic Arabia and pre-Islamic Arabia, those pagans actually buried their first-born daughters and Islam abolished that. And this is something that the haters of Islam do not mention of course. They just tell you about Islam and the bad bad warfare. They were fighting those poor pagans not mentioning what those pagans did in the first place. Of course, first and foremost they deified all kinds of creatures besides God and that is what the first tenant of Islam stands against, have no partners attributed to God worshiped one God alone. The reason being for that is once you start worshiping demons aside from God you fall into all kinds of other degenerate practices such as for example burying your first-born daughter. And this is what Prophet Muhammad sallallahu alaihi wa sallam amongst other things came to fight against. That's what people have to understand. The pagans were not just benign, compassionate people. They were just minding their own business and then evil Muhammad came and was fighting them for no reason whatsoever. But when Islam came it cleaned the society from such superstitious beliefs and suggest this with legal rights for women. Absolutely. But nowadays it's so oppressive. Unfortunately due to the lack of knowledge even now there are people in some regions of the world which blame the mother of newborn for determining the gender of the baby. But the truth is that science tells us something else. Science tells us that when the sperm and egg are unite the genetic material of each are combined providing the zygote all the information necessary for transforming the single cell into a complex network of cells known as the human body. Yes and that is important to understand as well because you have both extremes. At first in the days of superstition people really thought that the mother is responsible solely for what the gender will be. She is determining the gender. But then later on even in recent times most people started assuming through science that the semen is responsible for the sex. You have male swimmers and female swimmers and therefore they started attributing the sex only to the father, only to the male. So at both extremes at first people thought it's the woman then they thought it is the man. But now we come to the conclusion that both parties equally contribute to the gender. Human cells contain 23 pairs of chromosomes which is a total of 46 chromosomes. Each pair contains two chromosomes one coming from each parent which means the children inherit half of their chromosomes from their mother and half from their father. Which is so fascinating. What are the chromosomes? It's literally a copy of the father and the father. Chromosomes have thread-like structures made of protein and a single molecule of DNA that serve to carry the genomic information from cell to cell and they reside in the nucleus of the cell. From among those 23 pairs of chromosomes one pair is called sex chromosomes. At conception each embryo gets an X chromosome from its mother and either an X or a Y chromosome from its father. So either it takes an X chromosome from the mother and X from the father which results in female gender or it takes an X chromosome from the mother and a Y chromosome from the father which results in male gender. And either way it's the father who determined the gender of the embryo and not the mother. As I mentioned previously not quite. Now we have new evidence suggesting that both parties play equal roles. Yes it is of course true the Y chromosome can only come from the male and therefore the sperm is the determining factor which sperm will enter the egg. However as I said there is evidence suggesting that the egg itself plays a role in which sperm it chooses because there are many sperms simultaneously trying to penetrate the egg and therefore there is an additional factor of which sperm the egg will choose so to speak to penetrate. But of course I'm not a scientist that's all I heard. This fact has been unraveled in 20th century two advances in the science of embryology. However Quran has shed light on this fact 14 centuries ago where Allah Spano Wata'ala says In the mentioning verse Allah Spano Wata'ala tells us that it's a sperm which is responsible for the gender of the embryo. Or in other words I'm obviously not an Islamic or Quranic scholar however when I hear this passage for me it simply means that this is how life starts. It does not imply therefore that the sperm is solely responsible for it. Please let me know in the comment section what you guys think. Allah Spano Wata'ala determines the gender of the embryo. True father. I don't really read this in the passage but yes obviously I said you do need the white chromosome. Is it possible for a man 14 centuries ago to talk about such an amazing fact which has been discovered recently? The answer is for sure no and it points to the fact that these words can only be divine words which explains the details of creation. All right guys this is it for today's video. As I said throughout it I heard about new evidence suggesting that both genders play equal parts in this equation. The egg has to choose the sperm as well. But be that as it may all of those scientific miracles within the Quran are really not a huge determining factor for me personally. I just became a father again now to a newborn daughter. Alhamdulillah but what does that mean? I am still the same man. My wife is still the same woman. Our first child was a boy. Our second child is a girl. My sperm is the determining factor however. But again what does that mean? I produce apparently male and female sperms. However at the first time it was a male. Now it is a female. Who is the determining factor here? It is of course Allah. It is God that chooses. For me that is miraculous enough. I don't have to go into the detail and now think about yeah well they're male and female sperms and it's the father that is responsible. It's the mother that is responsible. Both of them are responsible. I really do not care because ultimately as believers we know that the sex is determined by God alone.
