  • Coccyx Or Tail Bone

    Posted by Ali Ahmad on November 3, 2025 at 3:35 am

    Assalm o Alaikum sir,

    There’s a hadith regarding the creation of humans in afterlife. It says coccyx bone doesn’t decay and Allah will re-create humans in afterlife from coccyx bone. It is inaccurate scientifically.

    Similarly, height of Adam A.S.

    Moreover,, is there any explanation regarding origin and creation of the animals.

    JazakAllah

    @Irfan76 sir, here’s the reference :

    كتاب التفسير65 Prophetic Commentary on the Qur’an (Tafseer of the Prophet (pbuh))

    (4)The Statement of Allah the Most High: “And the Trumpet will be blown, and all who are in the heavens and all who are on earth will swoon away, except him whom Allah wills…” (V.39:68)(4)باب قَوْلِهِ ‏{‏وَنُفِخَ فِي الصُّورِ فَصَعِقَ مَنْ فِي السَّمَوَاتِ وَمَنْ فِي الأَرْضِ إِلاَّ مَنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ ثُمَّ نُفِخَ فِيهِ أُخْرَى فَإِذَا هُمْ قِيَامٌ يَنْظُرُونَ‏}‏

    Sahih al-Bukhari 4814

    Narrated Abu Huraira:

    The Prophet (ﷺ) said, “Between the two blowing of the trumpet there will be forty.” The people said, “O Abu Huraira! Forty days?” I refused to reply. They said, “Forty years?” I refused to reply and added: Everything of the human body will decay except the coccyx bone (of the tail) and from that bone Allah will reconstruct the whole body.

    حَدَّثَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ حَفْصٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي قَالَ، حَدَّثَنَا الأَعْمَشُ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا صَالِحٍ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ ‏ “‏ بَيْنَ النَّفْخَتَيْنِ أَرْبَعُونَ ‏”‏‏.‏ قَالُوا يَا أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ أَرْبَعُونَ يَوْمًا قَالَ أَبَيْتُ‏.‏ قَالَ أَرْبَعُونَ سَنَةً قَالَ أَبَيْتُ‏.‏ قَالَ أَرْبَعُونَ شَهْرًا‏.‏ قَالَ أَبَيْتُ، وَيَبْلَى كُلُّ شَىْءٍ مِنَ الإِنْسَانِ إِلاَّ عَجْبَ ذَنَبِهِ، فِيهِ يُرَكَّبُ الْخَلْقُ‏.‏

    The hadith is mursal, which means the immediate narrator from the Prophet is missing, the one who directly heard from the Prophet.

    The second part that starts from وَيَبْلَى is not mentioned to be the saying of the Prophet. In Ahdith, this happens that the opinion or commentary of the narrator accompanies the saying of the Prophet.

    There is no authentic report about the height of Adam.
