  1. I think the fluid here is not blood. Mostly they refer to sperms rather than blood and that is all the Arabic spaking scholars admit.

  2. I fully agree with.. it is not related to blood circulation at all. The Verse very clearly describe The word "Maá" is related to the fluid not 'blood' that extracts or spurt from between the spine and the ribs that cause to form sperm for child birth.

    1. It is blood - and not seminal fluid - that spurts out from the heart situated in the cavity between spine and ribs exactly as described in the Verse.

    1. Here is the excerpts from Tafseer Ib-e-Ktheer (86: 6-7) He is created from a water gushing forth.) meaning, the sexual fluid that comes out bursting forth from the man and the woman. Thus, the child is produced from both of them by the permission of Allah. Due to this Allah says, Proceeding from between the backbone and the ribs.) meaning, the backbone (or loins) of the man and the ribs of the woman, which is referring to her chest. Shabib bin Bishr reported from `Ikrimah who narrated from Ibn `Abbas
      More over “Dam” or “Dimaá” are the Arabic words which means blood that circulate from heart and not the “Maá” hope you will agree now.
