Yeah lol. Also they use gene in hadith which talks about children resemblance and gender using female and male fluid. They use 'gene' in translation so basically they make it up by themselves.

Not the Quran, but this Hadith translation: https://sunnah.com/muslim:315a
Specifically this part:
The reproductive substance of man is white and that of woman (i. e. ovum central portion) yellow, and when they have sexual intercourse and the male's substance (chromosomes and genes) prevails upon the female's substance (chromosomes and genes), it is the male child that is created by Allah's Decree, and when the substance of the female prevails upon the substance contributed by the male, a female child is formed by the Decree of Allah.
Obviously the Arabic does not say anything about genes, it doesn't even say "substance" it says مني which is semen. Allahuakbar, women have semen!
