3:6

related refs 2:138

The child of Adam is endowed with this natural inheritance or characteristic (i.e. the image of God) in the sense that the development of the beauty of the human form starts with the body and reaches its climax in the perfection of the soul. As God says: “He it is Who makes your form in the wombs as pleases Him”(3:6). The chain of creation and perfection of man’s shape and form starts from the womb of mother, then in young age, a wisdom-filled, living (spiritual) picture of everyone is made. If man is obedient in truest sense, then this, his or her spiritual picture, according to “sibghat Allah (colour of God)” (2:138) passes from human beauty and becomes tinged with the sacred colour of Divine beauty .This is why the Qur’an has the presented the concept of the human beauty as being a spiritual picture, and increase and improvement in it. As He says: “And He made your shapes”. Here is mentioned the physical form which starts in the womb of mother. “The He made your shapes the best”. By this is meant that at the place of spirituality, He diffused it with the splendour of luminosity. “And unto Him is the return” means that this progress from the exterior to the interior, or from the physical to the spiritual is to the presence of God.
