ON THE CREATION OF MAN FROM CLAY

Quran: "Behold thy Lord said to the angels: "I am about to create man from sounding clay from mud molded into shape." (Al-Hijr [15]:28).

Bible: "Truly I am as your spokesman before God; I also have been formed out of clay." (Job [Ayub] 33:6).

Muslim claim: Mustafa Mahmud writes: "sounding clay is smelly fermented mud. God once mentions that life was created from water, and other places he mentions that it was created from dust, and then he confirms it as from mud that is smelly, mixed with soil. and it is a strange but accurate agreement with the discoveries of science after 1,400 years."

Evidence: The human life is created from clay confirms today by science, after they have been mocking the biblical account of the creation of man from the dust of the ground as simple and silly. In November 1982, The laughing had to take a pause when scientists at NASA's Ames Research Center were startled to discover that clay and earth contain every single element found in the human body. 

However, if the Quran discovered this which is in agreement with science than how do the Muslim scholars explain the Bible in Job chapter 33 verse 6, which was thousands of years before the prophet. The Muslims prophet did not come up with something new. It was all in the Bible which was "between his hands." Can you claim that you discovered the light bulb today? 

Why all these Muslim scholars avoid quoting these verses in their books?
