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.

 Quran 29:41

Ù…َØ«َÙ„ُ الَّØ°ِينَ اتَّØ®َØ°ُوا Ù…ِÙ†ْ دُونِ اللَّÙ‡ِ Ø£َÙˆْÙ„ِÙŠَاءَ ÙƒَÙ…َØ«َÙ„ِ الْعَÙ†ْÙƒَبُوتِ اتَّØ®َØ°َتْ بَÙŠْتًا ۖ ÙˆَØ¥ِÙ†َّ Ø£َÙˆْÙ‡َÙ†َ الْبُÙŠُوتِ Ù„َبَÙŠْتُ الْعَÙ†ْÙƒَبُوتِ ۖ Ù„َÙˆْ Ùƒَانُوا ÙŠَعْÙ„َÙ…ُونَ

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.

"It-takhatha اتَّØ®َØ°َ" is for males. "It-takhathat اتَّØ®َØ°َتْ" is for females. The Quran used "It-takhathat" for females. Here the female spider builds the web.


Weak House:

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.

Wind and rain damage their structure, while the gluey coating on the spiral thread that ensnares flying insects is rendered ineffective by pollen and dust. As a result the webs are often rebuilt every night - an operation requiring the manufacture of some 20 metres of silk.
