In the Quran spider webs are built by females. Skeptics claim that whoever wrote the Quran made a mistake; both males and females build the web. Today scientists confirm that only female spiders build the web.
Adult male spiders do not build webs.
Adult male spiders do not build webs, instead they reserve their silk for mating. It is the female spiders that build the webs. This was known recently, however this was portrayed in the Quran 1400 years before it was discovered.
The likeness of those who take to themselves protectors other than Allah is that of the spider. It builds a house. But the most fragile of houses is the spider's house. If they only knew.
٤١ مَثَلُ الَّذِينَ اتَّخَذُوا مِنْ دُونِ اللَّهِ أَوْلِيَاءَ كَمَثَلِ الْعَنْكَبُوتِ اتَّخَذَتْ بَيْتًا ۖ وَإِنَّ أَوْهَنَ الْبُيُوتِ لَبَيْتُ الْعَنْكَبُوتِ ۖ لَوْ كَانُوا يَعْلَمُونَ
"It-takhatha اتَّخَذَ" is for males. "It-takhathat اتَّخَذَتْ" is for females. The Quran used "It-takhathat" for females. Here the female spider builds the web.
Moreover spiders build their webs to catch prey. But everytime they catch prey the web gets damaged or destroyed and the spider needs to rebuild it again.
It's the only creature whose house gets destroyed every-time it catches food. The web can even be damaged by wind alone. "But the most fragile of houses is the spider's house."
