Salam Sister Saba We shall Inshallah wait to see Bro JAI's explanation on this subject Inshallah
Salaam Good Logic,
I believe I have a pretty good Idea now what the second word is referring to.
I read what others wrote on a site which confused me and had my thinking focused on male vs female. That's why I like researching it from scratch because you will end up looking for words or explanations that have nothing to do with the verse at all. Which put me in a view of not including the female which as a matter of fact the female is being referred to as the male.
I went to an IVF clinic yesterday, one of my friends is a doctor there and it helped a lot which narrows it down. It helped in a sense to know the exact area of the body it is even possible. What makes sense now also is when they do Invetro, I am sure Allah knew that was going to happen in the future when the verse came down, and how He said the verses 5-7 the way He did. Subhana Allah He sure covered everything incase someone tries to criticize His words...
It is not no rib, no bones nothing.. the issue is with muslims or even others think because that is what is in the dictionary that it might be right, it isn't. And there are words in the Quran that we will never know the truth meaning of the word or verse itself. The issue with this verse I think is everyone thought because of the backbone and rib or how every Quran that is translated besides Arabic has Man, him, he instead of the word referring to both female and male. It distorts the whole verse. In Arabic man is not the term to refer all humans like how other languages have.
I am going to work on research more, I am planning to InshaAllah send it to Brother Joseph and hopefully we all will be able to understand it. It is too much information to put all on here, although it is three simple verses, one has to have their proof to back it up.
May Allah guide...
