Which came first the chicken or the egg? :-D My speculation.

The chicken. I will support my statement with the following verses:
1.) Allah created Adam (saws) from clay and not from any parents.
"Behold! thy Lord said to the angels: "I am about to create man, from sounding clay from mud moulded into shape;" ~ Surah Al Hijri Ayat 28.
Creating Abi Adam (infinite saws) from sperm would have required an egg. That did not happen, but, he was created from moulded sounding clay. To say that the egg came first would be like saying that Adam was created from sperm and an egg, which he wasn't.
2.) When the Messiah (infinite saws) created a bird by the leave of Allah, he formed it from clay and did not use stem cells (cloning); nor 2 parent chickens; nor does the scriptures say that Nabi Isa formed an egg from the clay.
"And (appoint him) an apostle to the Children of Israel, (with this message): "’I have come to you, with a Sign from your Lord, in that I make for you out of clay, as it were, the figure of a bird, and breathe into it, and it becomes a bird by God’s leave: And I heal those born blind, and the lepers, and I quicken the dead, by God’s leave; and I declare to you what ye eat, and what ye store in your houses. Surely therein is a Sign for you if ye did believe;" ~ Surah Al Imran Ayat 49
3.) In the 6 days that Allah used to create the world...Allah did not use the clay to form an egg, as that would have required that an existing chicken sit on it to keep it warm. The animals were created on the 5th day. "20 And God said, "Let the waters swarm with fish and other life. Let the skies be filled with birds of every kind." 21 So God created great sea creatures and every sort of fish and every kind of bird. And God saw that it was good. 22 Then God blessed them, saying, "Let the fish multiply and fill the oceans. Let the birds increase and fill the earth." 23 This all happened on the fifth day. 24 And God said, "Let the earth bring forth every kind of animal -- livestock, small animals, and wildlife." And so it was. 25 God made all sorts of wild animals, livestock, and small animals, each able to reproduce more of its own kind. And God saw that it was good." ~ Genesis 1
It appears that they were animals first and not the seeds of the animals first. Allah created the animals first and then gave them the ability to reproduce more of its own kind. Allah gives us the answers to many (if not all) complex questions in the Divine Words from Himself.
