حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَضْرَمِيُّ ثنا أَبُو كُرَيْبٍ ثنا مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ هِشَامٍ عَنْ حَمْزَةَ الزَّيَّاتِ عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ السَّائِبِ عَنِ الْقَاسِمِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ قَالَ
عَبْدُ اللهِ مَرَّ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَجَعَلَ النَّاسُ يَقُولُونَ هَذَا رَسُولُ اللهِ فَقَالَ يَهُودِيٌّ إِنْ كَانَ رَسُولَ اللهِ فَسَأَسْأَلُهُ عَنْ شَيْءٍ فَإِنْ كَانَ نَبِيًّا عَلِمَهُ فَقَالَ يَا أَبَا الْقَاسِمِ أَخْبِرْنِي أَمِنْ نُطْفَةِ الرَّجُلِ يُخْلَقُ الْإِنْسَانُ أَوْ مِنْ نُطْفَةِ الْمَرْأَةِ؟ فَقَالَ «إِنَّ نُطْفَةَ الرَّجُلِ بَيْضَاءُ غَلِيظَةٌ فَمِنْهَا يَكُونُ الْعِظَامُ وَالْعَصَبُ وَإِنَّ نُطْفَةَ الْمَرْأَةِ صَفْرَاءُ رُقَيْقَةٌ فَمِنْهَا يَكُونُ الدَّمُ وَاللَّحْمُ»

✧ ʿAbdullah [b. Masʿūd ؓ ] said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ passed by, and the people began saying, "This is the Messenger of Allah." A Jew said, "If he is the Messenger of Allah, I will ask him about something, and if he is a prophet, he will know it." He said, "O Abu al-Qāsim, tell me: is a human being created from the man's semen or from the woman's semen?" He replied, "The man's semen is white and thick; from it come the bones and the nerves. The woman's semen is yellow and thin; from it come the blood and the flesh."
