Islamically what came first the chicken or the egg?

That is not necessarily an Islamic question since there is no answer to the question in the Qur'an and Hadeeth. Depending on whether one accepts the concept of evolution or not, one will get different answers.

And Allah knows best

Khalil ibn ILyas Laher

Just read on the news the other day, thanks to 3 free reuters news,that the age old question of what came first has seemingly, finally been answered!! Apparently latest research has established that the egg shell consists of certain cells, enzymes (some scientific term can't remeber) which can only be found in the chicken resulting in the need of a chicken to form those cells to form the egg! So the chicken had to be first!!(evolution mambo jumbo wise)

If we say that the egg must have come first then wouldn't that beg the question 'in what state was Aadam (as), or any other creation for that matter, in at first? Man or baby, drop of sperm etc? Ofcourse we now that he was fashioned as a fully formed human after which life was given. Can we or should'nt we believe it the same with all other creation?
Be and it is, in regards to the first creation of all the different creations and then the process of reproduction, growth etc which Allah has kept kicked in?
