Surah An-Nisa
يَـٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلنَّاسُ ٱتَّقُوا۟ رَبَّكُمُ ٱلَّذِى خَلَقَكُم مِّن نَّفْسٍ وَٰحِدَةٍ وَخَلَقَ مِنْهَا زَوْجَهَا وَبَثَّ مِنْهُمَا رِجَالًا كَثِيرًا وَنِسَآءً ۚ وَٱتَّقُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ ٱلَّذِى تَسَآءَلُونَ بِهِۦ وَٱلْأَرْحَامَ ۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ كَانَ عَلَيْكُمْ رَقِيبًا
Yā ayyuhan-nāsuttaqū rabbakumul-lażī khalaqakum min nafsiw wāḥidatiw wa khalaqa minhā zaujahā wa baṡṡa minhumā rijālan kaṡīraw wa nisā'ā(n), wattaqullāhal-lażī tasā'alūna bihī wal-arḥām(a), innallāha kāna ‘alaikum raqībā(n).
O mankind, fear your Lord, who created you from one soul and created from it its mate and dispersed from both of them many men and women. And fear Allah, through whom you ask one another, and the wombs. Indeed Allah is ever, over you, an Observer.

143) This verse emphasizes that the Prophet Adam (peace be upon him) and Eve (Hawa) were not created through a process of biological evolution like other living beings, but were specially created as a single individual, and then their mate was created from them. The mechanism behind this cannot be explained by science. Subsequently, their offspring were born through biological processes in pairs according to His will.
