The physical structure of would-be-human being was created from matter. This Structure’s cognition was by code/name: a skinned apparent structure.  Afterwards it was proportioned and preened. It was still matter. The []Structure became a living human being when Allah, the only Self-Living, blew within it "the Essence" of one of His decided matters/commands, and Allah the Exalted identified and named this Person for the information and recognition by already living ones as: Aa'dam.

Know the history of that point in time when We had said for [to] the Angles, "You people pay obeisance for Aa'dam" [2:34]

The One Who created all that exists. Thereat, for reason He stretched/fashioned/equated/made it even. [87:02]

Afterwards He stretched and proportioned/equated him and blew into him from His command [kun].
