Al-Muminun
وَلَقَدۡ خَلَقۡنَا ٱلۡإِنسَٰنَ مِن سُلَٰلَةٖ مِّن طِينٖ
12Indeed, We created man (Adam) out of an extract of clay. (i.e. Adam ( ) who was created from dust. Also mankind eats food products coming from the earth, and this food has nutrients to produce the sexual discharge).
12The reason for descending the verse
On the authority of `A’isha the mother of the believers,she said(when the slanderers said what they said about her),“I went to my bed knowing at that time that I was innocent and that Allah would reveal my innocence, but by Allah, I never thought that Allah would reveal in my favour a revelation which would be recited, for I considered myself too unimportant to be talked about by Allah in the Divine Revelation that was to be recited.” So Allah revealed the ten verses (of surah An-Nur). (Al-Bukhari)
