The basic perception infolded therein is that of an act of someone lowering his head before another. This act signifies and demonstratively portrays/parallel his thought of surrender and submission reflecting acceptance of his comparable humble state and position as against the other. This gives us its initial perception and meanings as obeisance, homage, respectful gesture and behviour with someone else.
Root: س ل ل To draw and pull something out from another thing gently, smoothly. Ibn Faris added that it means drawing out gently and secretively. He seems to have taken it from 24:63 where it is qualified as covertly moving out of certain people.
Soil; loose material that covers the surface of the Earth or rocks.

The Man: History of his coming into being.
1. Entry of First Human Person in created Realm with unprecedented exalted ceremony. Allah the Exalted informs us about history of the Creation of Man in picturesque verbal presentation in the Grand Qur'aan that we might conveniently visualize the happenings.
Let us express our gratitude to Allah the Exalted for affording great honour by this direction to the earlier existing living beings for paying an exalted ceremonial reception and welcome to First Human Person, named A'adam [alaihisalam]. 2. Man’s creation from day one is as Man, no so called "Evolution" involved. Allah the Exalted, informs us regarding making public this decision:
The pronouncement was: . This news negates hypothetical, conjectural myths propagated by the pseudo-intellectuals about emergence of human beings through so-called evolutionary process. The object of the intended creation was introduced by the cognition code/name: . The basic perception of its Root "ب ش ر", is the Skin. The circumstantial state, shape, or physical appearance of this intended object does not find mention in the informative sentence. However, it is manifestly evident by mention of the "raw material" selected for composing/coagulating it, that it was "a frame, mould, body, and structure". Human Person has an apparent structure, physical body::
1.2. Raw Material selected for :
Man is from matter and not portion/part of Absolute Being.
It being the ground reality, an undeniable fact, all hypothetical and philosophical sort of debate and discussions regarding "human-being a part of the Whole Being" are meaningless conjectures. Matter can be part of matter and may dissolve to become homogenous entity, but matter cannot be part of, or could amalgamate with "other than matter".
The raw material/physical object selected for the mould, frame, structure or body of the under-creation: was: .
We will need to know the perception and meanings of each word to perceive correctly the nature and quality of the selected raw material. : It is object Noun of Preposition, Indefinite; Masculine; singular; genitive relating to state-adjectival for earlier Noun-Man-Corporeal formation. Its Root is "ص ل ص ل". The basic perception and meaning is the clay mixed with sand, which in dried condition creates soft crinkling sound. What was its source, qualitative description? This was drawn from: . It is Prepositional + Adjectival phrase relating to preceding Noun. signifies fetid muddy compound. It is modified, by the adjectival trait: which is Passive Participle, Indefinite, Masculine, singular, genitive, relating to مصدر-سَنٌّ Verbal noun, from Root "س ن ن". This signifies rubbing-grinding something between two hard surfaces; over a stone slab with a stone. The pulverization of fetid muddy compound yields its softening, adhesion, homogeneity and diffusion of odor. In this process, the element that plays the major role is the water. The Grand Qur'aan contains: verbal unitary passages that make distinct and contrasted one thing from the other. They demarcate and categorize things having similarity or opposition making each distinct and individualized. They also differentiate between individual members of a genus/group/family or we may say they enumerate the divisions and sub-classifications in a group-genus-species. The concept and information, which has various dimensions that might need exposure from different angles for convenient understanding and comprehensive perception by the listener and reader, the technique of "rotational verbal presentation" is also taken recourse:
The raw material selected for the creation of structure/mould/frame/body of First Human person finds mention in these words/descriptions also:
: It is Prepositional Phrase relating to elided circumstance of the object of preceding verb. The preposition denotes a sub-set from the Set: that comprises of unconsolidated particles of organic and inorganic materials.
The initialization or origination was from some elements of: . It signifies loose earth matter; unconsolidated particles of earth having moisture content or pure dried after subsiding of the waters. It is a combination of organic and inorganic materials. A mould, structure can form from it when it is wet, mixed with water. The word is further elaborated by modifying adjective, its qualitative trait [active participle], one that acts adhesively, sticking. As we know, the Earth particles comprise both organic and inorganic constituents and its adhesive trait does not denote decomposition or bifurcation. Further information about the constituent material is this: "gently and secretively drawn extract comprising elements of water admixed clay".
thereby, why not you reflect upon the fact that We created you people [initially] corporeally structured with substances of clay.
That He He the Exalted created you people corporeally structured with substances of clay, [Ref 30:20]
(d) Reference of water in the creation of Structure of Human Being.
First, it is in broad general spectrum that the life emanates in all sorts of matter, by the Will of Allah the Exalted, with the water. Later, the same information specifically finds mention in relation to the animal kingdom and human being. The life of plant kingdom finds mention in these words:
We have earlier noted that the main object/raw material of creation of the mould/structure/frame of human person is: . The last mention about the raw material sums up by exemplification and excellence of it:
: Possessive Phrase: Prefixed exemplification noun, genitive state + Collective Noun: Definite; masculine; singular; genitive. Its Root is "ف خ ر". The basic perception infolded is to admire, glory, claim superiority because of honour arising from qualities and relationships. The trait-attribute has depth, intensity, positivism, and negativism. Negatively, the signification is boasting, making mere noises-conjectural gossips void of substance. In view of this information, and restricting ourselves to the perception and meanings infolded in the Roots of the words, mentioning raw material, we must not use words of inferior import for the raw material of human beings. Carbon becomes diamond when pressed-rubbed-pressured and "baked". Likewise: admirable is the raw material of human beings. In the creation of human being, a living person, we notice three elements relevant to emergence of life: (1) Firstly, crinkled sand mixed clay drawn from rotten fetid muddy compound turned into a 'paste' and odor diffused by pulverization; (2) Presence of moisture, water; (3) Baking, presence of heat. 2.4 Further references about-Terrestrial Origin
