I visited Abu Sariha Hudhaifa bin Usaid al-Ghifari رضی اللہ عنہ who said: I listened with these two ears of mine Allahs Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) as saying: The semen stays in the womb for forty nights, then the angel, gives it a shape. Zubair said: I think that he said: One who fashions that and decides whether he would be male or female. Then he (the angel) says: Would his limbs be full or imperfect? And then the Lord makes thein full and perfect or otherwise as He desires. Then he says: My Lord, what about his livelihood, and his death and what about his disposition? And then the Lord decides about his misfortune and fortune.
