قال الله تعالى:

Allah the Almighty says:

{وَاتْلُ عَلَيْهِمْ نَبَأَ ابْنَيْ آدَمَ بِالْحَقِّ إِذْ قَرَّبَا قُرْبَانًا فَتُقُبِّلَ مِنْ أَحَدِهِمَا وَلَمْ يُتَقَبَّلْ مِنَ الْآخَرِ ۖ قَالَ لَأَقْتُلَنَّكَ ۖ قَالَ إِنَّمَا يَتَقَبَّلُ اللَّهُ مِنَ الْمُتَّقِينَ * لَئِنْ بَسَطْتَ إِلَيَّ يَدَكَ لِتَقْتُلَنِي مَا أَنَا بِبَاسِطٍ يَدِيَ إِلَيْكَ لِأَقْتُلَكَ ۖ إِنِّي أَخَافُ اللَّهَ رَبَّ الْعَالَمِينَ * إِنِّي أُرِيدُ أَنْ تَبُوءَ بِإِثْمِي وَإِثْمِكَ فَتَكُونَ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّارِ ۚ وَذَٰلِكَ جَزَاءُ الظَّالِمِينَ * فَطَوَّعَتْ لَهُ نَفْسُهُ قَتْلَ أَخِيهِ فَقَتَلَهُ فَأَصْبَحَ مِنَ الْخَاسِرِينَ * فَبَعَثَ اللَّهُ غُرَابًا يَبْحَثُ فِي الْأَرْضِ لِيُرِيَهُ كَيْفَ يُوَارِي سَوْأَةَ أَخِيهِ ۚ قَالَ يَا وَيْلَتَا أَعَجَزْتُ أَنْ أَكُونَ مِثْلَ هَٰذَا الْغُرَابِ فَأُوَارِيَ سَوْأَةَ أَخِي ۖ فَأَصْبَحَ مِنَ النَّادِمِينَ}

{And (O Muhammad (Peace be upon him» recite to them (the Jews) the story of the two sons of Adam (Habil and Qabil) in truth; when each offered a sacrifice (to Allah), it was accepted from the one but not from the other. The latter said to the former: "I will surely kill you." The former said: "Verily, Allah accepts only from those who are Al-Muttaqun (the pious)." "If you do stretch your hand against me to kill me, I shall never stretch my hand against you to kill you: for I fear Allah, the Lord of the `Alamin (mankind, jinn, and all that exists)." "Verily, I intend to let you draw my sin on yourself as well as yours, then you will be one of the dwellers of the Fire; and that is the recompense of the Zalimin (polytheists and wrong-doers);" So the Nafs (self) of the other (latter one) encouraged him and made fair-seeming to him the murder of his brother; he murdered him and became one of the losers; Then Allah sent a crow who scratched the ground to show him to hide the dead body of his brother; He (the murderer) said: "Woe to me! Am I not even able to be as this crow and to hide the dead body of my brother?" Then he became one of those who regretted}. (Al-- Ma'idah, 27-31)

روى السُّدِّيُّ عن أبي مالك وأبي صالح عن ابن عباس رضي الله عنه، وعن ابن مسعود وغيرهما من الصحابة، أن آدم عليه السلام كان يُزوِّج الذكر من حمل البطن الأول بالأنثى من حمل البطن الآخر، فكان يُظَنُّ أن هابيل سيتزوج أخت قابيل التي كانت أحسن وأجمل من غيرها، وفي الوقت نفسه أراد قابيل أن يستبقيها لنفسه، فأمره آدم عليه السلام أن يسمح لهابيل بالزواج منها، لكنه أبى تمامًا. ثم أمر آدم عليه السلام كلاً من هابيل وقابيل أن يقدّما قربانًا لله تعالى. وفي هذه الأثناء توجّه آدم عليه السلام نحو مكة لأداء الحج، وقبل مغادرته حاول أن يستودع (أمر) أبنائه السماواتِ والأرضَ وأخيرًا الجبالَ، فأبى الجميع أن يحملوا تلك الأمانة (الثقيلة). فقبِل قابيل الأمانة، ولما ذهب آدم قرّبا قربانهما لله؛ فقرّب هابيل شاةً سمينة، وقرّب قابيل حُزمةً من نباتٍ رديء. ثم نزلت نارٌ من السماء فأكلت قربان هابيل وتركت قربان قابيل. فاشتدّ غضب قابيل وقال لأخيه: لأقتلنّك حتى لا أتزوج أختي، فقال هابيل: {إِنَّمَا يَتَقَبَّلُ اللَّهُ مِنَ الْمُتَّقِينَ}.

Narrated As-Sadiy on the authority of Abu Malik and Abu Salih after Ibn 'Abbas (May Allah be pleased with him) and on the authority of Ibn Mas`ud and other Companions that Adam (Peace be upon him) used to get the male brought by one birth married to the female brought by the other. Hence, it was supposed that Abel would get married to Cain's sister who was better and more beautiful than anyone else. At the same time, Cain wanted to keep her for himself. Adam (Peace be upon him) ordered him to allow' Abel to marry her, but he totally refused. Then, Adam (Peace be upon him) ordered both (Abel and Cain) to offer a sacrifice to Allah Almighty. Meanwhile, Adam set forth towards Mecca to perform Pilgrimage. Just before leaving, Adam tried to entrust (the affairs of) his children to the heavens, the earth and finally to the mountains, but all declined to shoulder the (heavy) trust. Thereupon, Cain accepted the trust and after Adam went away they (Abel and Cain) offered their sacrifices to Allah. Abel offered a fat she-goat, while Cain offered a bundle of bad plants. Later, a fire came down from heaven and consumed the sacrifice offered by Abel and left untouched that of Cain. Cain became livid with rage and said to his brother: I will kill you so as not to marry my sister, Abel said: {Verily, Allah accepts only from those who are Al-Muttaqun (the pious)}.

قال عبد الله بن عمرو (رضي الله عنهما): والله! كان المقتول (هابيل) أقوى من القاتل (قابيل)، لكنه امتنع أن يبسط يده على أخيه ليقتله، لتقواه وخشيته لله.

'Abdullah Ibn `Amr (May Allah be pleased with both of them) said: By Allah! The murdered (Abel) was stronger (than the murderer, Cain), but he refused to stretch his hand against his brother to kill him due to his piety and God-fearing.

قال أبو جعفر الباقر: إن آدم (عليه السلام) كان حاضراً هناك حين قدّما قربانهما. فلما قُبل قربان هابيل، قال قابيل لأبيه آدم: «إنما تقبّل منه لأنك دعوت الله له». وأضمر في نفسه شيئاً ضد أخيه. وفي يوم من الأيام تأخّر هابيل، فأرسل آدم قابيل للبحث عنه. فالتقى الأخوان، فقال قابيل: «قُبل قربانك ولم يُقبل قرباني». فقال هابيل:

Abu Ja`far Al-Baqir mentioned that Adam (Peace be upon him) was present there when they offered their sacrifices. After Abel's sacrifice was accepted, Cain said to his father, Adam: "It was accepted only from him because you invoked Allah for his sake." And, he secretly intended something against his brother. One day, Abel was late and Adam sent Cain to look for him. The two brothers met and Cain said: "Your sacrifice was accepted and mine was not." Abel said:

{إِنَّمَا يَتَقَبَّلُ اللَّهُ مِنَ الْمُتَّقِينَ} قَالَ: فَغَضِبَ قَابِيلُ وَضَرَبَ أَخَاهُ بِقِطْعَةٍ حَدِيدِيَّةٍ، فَسَقَطَ هَابِيلُ مَيِّتًا فِي الْحَالِ.

"{Verily, Allah accepts only from those who are Al-Muttaqun (the pious)}." Cain got angry and hit his brother with an iron rod and Abel fell dead at once.

قيل: قتل قابيلُ هابيلَ بأن رماه بحجر على رأسه وهو نائم. وقيل أيضًا: خنقه قابيلُ خنقًا شديدًا وعضَّه حتى مات كما تفعل السباع. أما قول هابيل حين توعّده أخوه بالقتل: {لَئِن بَسَطتَ إِلَيَّ يَدَكَ لِتَقتُلَنِي مَا أَنَا بِبَاسِطٍ يَدِيَ إِلَيكَ لِأَقتُلَكَ إِنِّي أَخَافُ اللَّهَ رَبَّ العَالَمِينَ} (المائدة: 28)، فقد دلّ على حسن خلقه وأدبه، وخشيته من الله، وتمام تقواه بأن لا يؤذي أخاه، بخلاف الفعل القبيح الذي عزم عليه أخوه قابيل. ولهذا روى أبو بكرة رضي الله عنه أن رسول الله ﷺ قال: «إِذَا التَقَى المُسلِمَانِ بِسَيفَيهِمَا فَالقَاتِلُ وَالمَقتُولُ فِي النَّارِ». قال الأحنف (أحد الرواة): قلت: يا رسول الله، هذا القاتل، فما بال المقتول؟ قال: «إِنَّهُ كَانَ حَرِيصًا عَلَى قَتلِ صَاحِبِهِ». وقال تعالى: {إِنِّي أُرِيدُ أَن تَبُوءَ بِإِثمِي وَإِثمِكَ فَتَكُونَ مِن أَصحَابِ النَّارِ وَذَٰلِكَ جَزَاءُ الظَّالِمِينَ} (المائدة: 29)، أي: إني لا أريد أن أقاتلك وأنا أقوى منك وأشد، ولكنك {تَبُوءَ بِإِثمِي وَإِثمِكَ}، أي: تحمل وزر قتلي مع ذنوبك السابقة.1

It was said: Cain killed Abel by throwing a rock at his head while he was asleep. It was also said: Cain choked Abel violently and bit him to death as beasts do. However, Abel's saying when Cain threatened to kill him: {If you do stretch your hand against me to kill me, I shall never stretch my hand against you to kill you: for I fear Allah, the Lord of the" Alamin (mankind, jinn, and all that exists)} (Al-Ma'idah, 28) indicated his good morals and ethics, his fear from Allah, and perfect piety that he may harm his brother, in contrast with the odious deed intended by his brother, Cain. For this, Abu Bakrah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported Allah's Messenger (Peace be upon him) as saying: "'When two Muslims confront each other and the one amongst them attacks his brother with a weapon, both of them get into Hell- Fire.' He (Ahnaf, one of the sub-narrators) said: 'I said, or it was said: Messenger of Allah! It may be the case of one who kills, but what about the slain (why he would be put in Hell-Fire)?' Thereupon, he (Peace be upon him) said: 'He also intended to kill his companion. " Allah the Almighty says: {Verily, I intend to let you draw my sin (on yourself) as well as yours, then you will be one of the denizens of the Fire; and that is the recompense of the Zalimun (polytheists and wrong-doers)}. (Al-Ma'idah, 29) i.e. I do not intend to fight against you though I am myself far stronger and tougher than you are, but you will {draw my sin on yourself as well as yours}, i.e. you will bear the sin of murdering me along with your previous sins.1

رَوَى الإمامُ أحمدُ، وأبو داودَ، والترمذيُّ، عن سعدِ بنِ أبي وقّاصٍ، أنه شهدَ عند فتنةِ عثمانَ بنِ عفانَ، فقال: أشهدُ أنّ رسولَ اللهِ ﷺ قال: «سَتَكونُ فتنةٌ القاعدُ فيها خيرٌ من القائمِ، والقائمُ فيها خيرٌ من الماشي، والماشي فيها خيرٌ من الساعي». فقال رجلٌ: يا رسولَ اللهِ، أرأيتَ إنْ دخلَ عليَّ بيتي، وبسطَ يدَه إليَّ ليقتلَني؟ فقال رسولُ اللهِ ﷺ: «كُنْ كخيرِ ابني آدمَ». وروَاهُ ابنُ مردويهِ عن حذيفةَ بنِ اليمانِ بلفظٍ آخرَ، قال فيه: «كُنْ كخيرِ ابنيْ آدمَ». وروَى الإمامُ أحمدُ، عن معاويةَ ووكيعٍ، قالا: حدّثنا الأعمشُ، عن عبدِ اللهِ بنِ مُرّةَ، عن مسروقٍ، عن عبدِ اللهِ بنِ مسعودٍ رضيَ اللهُ عنه قال: قال النبيُّ ﷺ: «لا تُقتلُ نفسٌ ظلمًا إلا كان على ابنِ آدمَ الأولِ كِفلٌ من دمِها؛ لأنه أولُ من سنّ القتلَ». (مسندُ أحمدَ)

Narrated Imam Ahmed, Abu Dawud and At-Tirmidhi on the authority of Sa'd Ibn Abu Waqqas his statement upon the ordeal of `Uthman Ibn `Affan that reads: I testify that Allah's Messenger (Peace be upon him) said: "There will be soon a period of turmoil in which the one who sits will be better than one who stands and the one who stands will be better than one who walks and the one who walks will be better than one who runs." Someone said: 'Allah's Messenger! What is your opinion if someone entered my home and stretched his hand to kill me?' Allah's Messenger (Peace be upon him) said: 'Be just like the son of Adam (Abel). "Narrated by Ibn Mardwiyah after Hudhaifah Ibn Al- Yaman in another wording as saying: "Be just like the best of Adam's two sons." Imam Ahmed transmitted after Mu`awiyah and Waki` their saying: We were told by Al- A ` mash on the authority of `Abdullah Ibn Murrah after Masruq after `Abdullah Ibn Mas`ud (May Allah be pleased with him) as saying: The Prophet (Peace be upon him) said, "None (no human being) is killed or murdered (unjustly), but a part of responsibility for the crime is laid on the first son of Adam who invented the tradition of killing (murdering on earth). " (Ahmed's Musnad)

ومع ذلك، يوجد في جبل يقع في الجزء الشمالي من سوريا كهفٌ يُسمّى «كهف الدم»، ويُعتقد أنه مسرح الجريمة التي قتل فيها قابيلُ أخاه هابيلَ. وقد عرف أهل تلك الناحية ذلك من أهل الكتاب (النصارى واليهود)، ولا يعلم صحةَ هذا أو حقيقتَه إلا الله سبحانه وتعالى. ذكر الحافظُ ابنُ عساكر في ترجمة أحمدَ بنِ كثير أن: «أحمدَ رأى في المنام رسولَ الله ﷺ، وأبا بكر، وعمرَ، وهابيلَ. فعلم أحمدُ من هابيلَ — الذي أقسم على ذلك — أن دمَه هو الذي أُريق هناك (في ذلك الكهف بعينه). وقال هابيل إنه سأل الله تعالى أن يجعل الدعوات والابتهالات التي تُقدَّم في ذلك المكان مقبولة. فاستجاب الله دعاءه، وآمن رسولُ الله ﷺ بذلك وقال: كنتُ أنا وأبو بكر وعمرُ نزور ذلك المكان كلَّ يوم خميس». غير أنه ينبغي التنبيه إلى أن هذه الرواية لا تعدو أن تكون رؤيا منامية، ولو صحت فلا يُبنى عليها أي حكمٍ شرعي، والله أعلم. قال الله تعالى: {فَبَعَثَ اللَّهُ غُرَابًا يَبْحَثُ فِي الْأَرْضِ لِيُرِيَهُ كَيْفَ يُوَارِي سَوْءَةَ أَخِيهِ قَالَ يَا وَيْلَتَا أَعَجَزْتُ أَنْ أَكُونَ مِثْلَ هَذَا الْغُرَابِ فَأُوَارِيَ سَوْءَةَ أَخِي فَأَصْبَحَ مِنَ النَّادِمِينَ} [المائدة: 31]. قال بعضُ المفسرين: «إن قابيلَ بعد أن قتل أخاه حمله على ظهره سنةً كاملةً (لا يدري ماذا يصنع بجثة أخيه!)». وقال آخرون: «بل حمله على ظهره مائةَ سنة، حتى بعث الله تعالى غرابين يقتتلان، فقُتل أحدهما، فأخذ القاتلُ يحفر الأرض ليواري جثةَ الغراب الميت. فلما رآه قابيل قال: يا ويلتا! أعجزتُ أن أكونَ مثلَ هذا الغراب فأواريَ جثةَ أخي؟ فدفن جثةَ أخيه الميت وغطّاها بالتراب».

However, there is a cave, called the "Blood Cave", in a mountain located to the northern part of Syria. It is thought to be the scene of the crime where Cain killed his brother Abel. The people living there came to know this through the People of the Book (Christians and Jews) and only Allah Almighty knows the validity or realness of this. .Al-Hafiz Ibn `Asakir mentioned in the biography of Ahmed Ibn Katheer that "He (Ahmed) saw in a dream Allah's Messenger (Peace be upon him), Abu Bakr, `Umar and Abel. Ahmed came to know from Abel -who took an oath of that- it was his own blood (that was spilt there (in that very cave)). Abel said that he had asked Allah Almighty to make the invocations and supplications offered in that place acceptable. Allah accepted his own invocations and His Messenger, Muhammad (Peace be upon him) believed in that and said: I (Allah's Messenger), Abu Bakr and `Umar used to visit that place every Thursday. "However, it is to be stated that this narration represents only a vision. Even if it were true, no religious ruling can ever be based on such a thing; and Allah knows best! Allah Almighty says: {Then, Allah sent a crow who scratched the ground to show him how to hide the dead body of his brother. He (the murderer) said: "Woe to me! Am I not even able to be as this crow and to hide the dead body of my brother? "Then he became one of those who regretted}. (Al-Ma'idah, 31) Some interpreters said: "After Cain had killed his brother, he carried him on his back for a full year (not knowing what to do with his brother's corpse!)." Others said: He carried him on his back for one hundred years till Allah Almighty sent two crows who fought against one another. One of them was killed. The murderer scratched the ground to hide the body of the dead crow. Seeing him doing that, Cain said: Woe to me! Am I not even able to do as this crow and to hide the dead body of my brother? Then, he buried the body of his dead brother and covered it with earth.

قال المؤرخون: أصاب آدمَ مرضٌ شديد في قلبه، وحزنٌ عظيم على ابنه المقتول هابيل. وقال مجاهد: عوقب قابيل سريعًا بعد ذلك، ففي اليوم نفسه الذي قتل فيه أخاه هابيل، شُدّت رجله إلى فخذه، وأُكرِه وجهه على التوجّه نحو قرص الشمس. وكان وجهه يتّجه حيث تتّجه الشمس، عقوبةً وجزاءً له على ما فعله بأخيه. قال رسول الله ﷺ:

Historians said: Adam became very sick at heart and felt great sorrow for his dead son, Abel. Mujahid said: Cain was brought punishment very soon afterwards. On the same day he killed his brother, Abel, his foot was tied up to his thighbone and his face was forcibly directed up to the sun disk. His face used to go where the sun goes as a way of punishment and penalty in return for what he had done to his own brother. Allah's Messenger (Peace be upon him) said:

"لَا ذَنْبَ أَحْرَى أَنْ يُعَجَّلَ لِصَاحِبِهِ الْعُقُوبَةُ فِي الدُّنْيَا مَعَ مَا يُدَّخَرُ لَهُ فِي الْآخِرَةِ مِنَ الْبَغْيِ وَقَطِيعَةِ الرَّحِمِ". ذكر الإمام أبو جعفر في تاريخه عن أناس قالوا: ولدت حواء أربعين ولدًا في عشرين بطنًا. ووافقه ابن إسحاق على ذلك، وذكر أسماءهم مفصلة. ولكن لا يُجزم بأسمائهم ولا بعددهم، والله أعلم، ولا يعلم عددهم إلا هو! وقال آخرون: كان ذلك في مائةٍ وعشرين بطنًا، في كل بطن ذكر وأنثى. وكان أولهم قابيل وأخته قليمة، وآخرهم عبد المغيث وأخته أم المغيث. ثم كثر الناس وانتشروا في الأرض. قال الله تعالى: {يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ اتَّقُوا رَبَّكُمُ الَّذِي خَلَقَكُمْ مِنْ نَفْسٍ وَاحِدَةٍ وَخَلَقَ مِنْهَا زَوْجَهَا وَبَثَّ مِنْهُمَا رِجَالًا كَثِيرًا وَنِسَاءً وَاتَّقُوا اللَّهَ الَّذِي تَسَاءَلُونَ بِهِ وَالْأَرْحَامَ}.

"There is no sin more recurring punishment (very rapidly) in the present life, along with what awaits for its doer in the Hereafter, than transgression and severing the ties of relationship. " Imam Abu J a' far mentioned in his Tarikh "History" on the authority of some people who had said: Eve gave birth to forty children through twenty births. Ibn Ishaq viewed the same and he mentioned their names in detail. However, nothing is sure of their names or numbers. Only Allah knows best and no one else can know their exact number! Others said: there were one hundred and twenty births, in each one a male and a female were born. The first among them were Cain and his sister Qalimah, and the last ones were `Abdul Mughith and his sister Ummul Mughith. Then, humans increased in number and spread into the earth. Allah Almighty says: {O mankind! Be dutiful to your Lord, Who created you from a single person (Adam), and from him (Adam) He created his wife [Hawwa (Eve)], and from them both He created many men and women; and fear Allah through Whom you demand (your mutual rights), and (do not cut the relations of) the wombs (kinship).

إِنَّ اللَّهَ كَانَ عَلَيْكُمْ رَقِيبًا}. (النساء، ١)

Surely, Allah is Ever an All-Watcher over you}. (An-Nisa', 1)

قال المؤرخون: لم يمت آدم حتى رأى من ذريته ونسله أربعمائة ألف (400.000) شخص. واللهُ أعلمُ بالصواب! قال الله تعالى: {هُوَ الَّذِي خَلَقَكُم مِّن نَّفْسٍ وَاحِدَةٍ وَخَلَقَ مِنْهَا زَوْجَهَا لِيَسْكُنَ إِلَيْهَا}

Historians said: Adam did not die till he saw from among his progeny and offspring four hundred thousand persons (400.000). Only Allah knows best! Allah, the Almighty says: {It is He Who has created you from a single person (Adam), and (then) He has created from him his wife [Hawwa' (Eve)], in order that he might enjoy the pleasure of living with her.

فَلَمَّا تَغَشَّاهَا حَمَلَتْ حَمْلًا خَفِيفًا فَمَرَّتْ بِهِ ۚ فَلَمَّا أَثْقَلَت دَّعَوَا اللَّهَ رَبَّهُمَا لَئِنْ آتَيْتَنَا صَالِحًا

When he had sexual relation with her, she became pregnant and she carried it about lightly. Then when it became heavy, they both invoked Allah, their Lord (saying): "If You give us a Salih (good in every aspect)

"...فَلَنَكُونَنَّ مِنَ الشَّاكِرِينَ". فَلَمَّا آتَاهُمَا صَالِحًا جَعَلَا لَهُ شُرَكَاءَ فِيمَا آتَاهُمَا فَتَعَالَى اللَّهُ عَمَّا يُشْرِكُونَ}. (الأعراف: 189، 190). فقد ذُكر آدم أولًا لشدّ انتباه قارئ القرآن، ثم ذُكر ثانيًا جنسُ البشر كلّه. وذلك بذكر جميع البشر بعد ذكر أبيهم؛ قال الله تعالى: {وَلَقَدْ خَلَقْنَا الْإِنْسَانَ مِنْ سُلَالَةٍ مِنْ طِينٍ * ثُمَّ جَعَلْنَاهُ نُطْفَةً فِي قَرَارٍ مَكِينٍ}. (المؤمنون: 12، 13)؛ وفي قوله: {وَلَقَدْ زَيَّنَّا السَّمَاءَ الدُّنْيَا بِمَصَابِيحَ وَجَعَلْنَاهَا...

child, we shall indeed be among the grateful." But when He gave them a Salih (good in every aspect) child, they ascribed partners to Him (Allah) in that which He has given to them. High be Allah, Exalted above all that they ascribe as partners to Him}. (Al-A'raf, 189, 190) Adam was mentioned first to draw the attention of the reader of the Qur'an, then whom was mentioned second was the whole race of mankind. This is done by way of mentioning the whole race of mankind after mentioning the forefather thereof; Allah the Almighty says: {And indeed We created man (Adam) out of an extract of clay (water and earth). Thereafter We made him (the offspring of Adam) as a Nutfah (mixed drops of the male and female sexual discharge and lodged it) in a safe lodging (Womb of the woman)}. (Al-Mu'minun, 12, 13); and in: {And indeed We have adorned the nearest heaven with lamps, and We have made such lamps (as)

...مِنْ مَصَابِيحَ وَجَعَلْنَاهَا رُجُومًا لِلشَّيَاطِينِ}. (الملک: ٥) وَمِنَ الْمَعْلُومِ أَنَّ «الْمَصَابِيحَ الَّتِي هِيَ رُجُومٌ» لَيْسَتْ هِيَ مَصَابِيحَ الزِّينَةِ، وَإِنَّمَا انْتَقَلَ مِنْ صِنْفٍ وَاحِدٍ أَوْ شَخْصٍ وَاحِدٍ إِلَى النَّوْعِ الْإِنْسَانِيِّ كُلِّهِ.

missiles to drive away the Shayatin (devils)}. (Al-Mulk, 5) Where it is wellknown that the "lamps as missiles" are not the same as lamps of adornment, but He turned from a single category or person to the whole race.

كان آدم (عليه السلام) أبا البشر. خلقه الله بيده، ونفخ فيه من روحه، وأمر الملائكة فسجدوا له، وعلّمه أسماء كل شيء، وأسكنه جنته الواسعة. روى ابن حبان في صحيحه عن أبي ذر رضي الله عنه قال: "قلت: يا رسول الله، كم كان الأنبياء؟ قال: مائة ألف وأربعة وعشرون ألفا. قلت: يا رسول الله، كم كان الرسل منهم؟ قال: ثلاثمائة وثلاثة عشر جما غفيرا. قلت: يا رسول الله، من كان أولهم؟ قال: آدم. قلت: يا رسول الله، أنبيّ مرسل كان؟ قال: نعم، خلقه الله بيده، ثم نفخ فيه من روحه، ثم سوّاه قبلا." ﷺ وفي حديث الإسراء الذي في الصحيحين، البخاري ومسلم، قال النبي ﷺ: "فَفُتِحَ لَنَا، فَعَرَجْنَا إِلَى السَّمَاءِ الدُّنْيَا، فَإِذَا فِيهَا رَجُلٌ قَاعِدٌ، عَنْ يَمِينِهِ أَسْوِدَةٌ وَعَنْ يَسَارِهِ أَسْوِدَةٌ، إِذَا نَظَرَ قِبَلَ يَمِينِهِ ضَحِكَ، وَإِذَا نَظَرَ قِبَلَ يَسَارِهِ بَكَى، فَقَالَ: مَرْحَبًا بِالنَّبِيِّ الصَّالِحِ وَالِابْنِ الصَّالِحِ. قُلْتُ لِجِبْرِيلَ: مَنْ هَذَا؟ قَالَ: هَذَا آدَمُ، وَهَذِهِ الأَسْوِدَةُ عَنْ يَمِينِهِ وَيَسَارِهِ نَسَمُ بَنِيهِ، فَأَهْلُ الْيَمِينِ مِنْهُمْ أَهْلُ الْجَنَّةِ، وَالأَسْوِدَةُ عَنْ يَسَارِهِ أَهْلُ النَّارِ، فَإِذَا نَظَرَ قِبَلَ يَمِينِهِ ضَحِكَ، وَإِذَا نَظَرَ قِبَلَ يَسَارِهِ بَكَى." ﷺ (رواه البخاري ومسلم)

Adam (Peace be upon him) was. the father of mankind. He was created by the Hand of Allah Who breathed out of His Soul into him, Who made the Angels prostrate themselves before him, Who taught him names of everything, and Who made him dwell in His spacious Paradise. Narrated Ibn Hibban in his Sahih on the authority of Abu Dharr his saying: "I said, 0 Allah's Messenger! How many were the Prophets of Allah?' He (Peace be upon him) said: 'One hundred twenty -four thousands.' I said: 'O Allah's Messenger! How many were the Messengers among them?' He (Peace be upon him) said: 'Three hundred and thirteen, a great number!' I said: 'O Allah's Messenger! Who was the first among them? 'He (Peace be upon him) said: 'Adam.' I said: 'O Allah's Messenger! Was he a Prophet sent with a Message?' He (Peace be upon him) said: 'Yes, Allah the Almighty created him with His Hand, then, breathed into him out of His Soul, then, He fashioned him (in a very proper manner). " In the Night Journey Hadith that can be found in the two Sahihs -Al-Bukhari and Muslim -Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him) said: "So the gate was opened and we went over the nearest heaven and there we saw a man sitting with some people on his right and some on his left. When he looked towards his right, he laughed and when he looked towards his left he wept. Then he said, 'Welcome! 0 pious Prophet and pious son!' I asked Gabriel: 'Who is he?' He replied: 'He is Adam and the people on his right and left are the souls of his offspring. Those on his right are the people of Paradise and those on his left are the people of Hell and when he looks towards his right he laughs and when he looks towards his left he weeps. " (Al-Bukhari and Muslim)

فيما يتعلق بالحديث النبوي الذي يقول: "ثم مررتُ بيوسفَ فإذا هو قد أُعطيَ شطرَ الحُسنِ" ﷺ، قال بعض العلماء إنه يعني أنه أُعطي نصفَ الجمالِ الذي أُعطيه آدمُ. وهذا حقًّا مناسبٌ جدًّا ومقنِعٌ! فإنَّ اللهَ تعالى خلقَ آدمَ، وصوَّرَه بيدِه، ونفخَ فيه من روحِه، ولا بدَّ أنَّ اللهَ سبحانَه، لِكُلِّ هذه الأمورِ، قد خلقَ أحسنَ كلِّ شيءٍ.

Regarding the Prophetic Hadith that reads: "Then, I passed by Yusuf (Joseph) and I found him to be granted half of beauty."Some scholars explained that it means that he was given half of the beauty Adam was granted. Indeed, this is very suitable and convincing! That Allah, the Almighty created Adam, fashioned him by His Hand and breathed into him out of His Soul, for all these Allah the Almighty must have created the best of all things.

روي عن عبد الله بن عمر وعبد الله بن عمرو أنهما قالا: لما خلق الله تعالى الجنة قالت الملائكة: "ربنا اجعل لنا هذه، فإنك خلقت لبني آدم الدنيا التي يأكلون فيها ويشربون." فقال الله تعالى: "وعزتي وجلالي لا أساوي بين المتقين من الذين خلقتهم بيدي، وبين من قلت له: كن فكان!" وروي في الصحيحين، البخاري ومسلم، عن أبي هريرة (رضي الله عنه)

It was narrated on the authority of `Abdullah Ibn 'Umar and' Abdullah Ibn 'Amr that: When Allah the Almighty created Paradise, the Angels said: "'Our Lord! Make this for us for You created for mankind the present world in which they eat and drink.' Allah the Almighty said: 'By My Glory and Loftiness! I will not equalize between the pious from among those whom I created with My Hand, and those whom When I said "Be ", they were!" It was narrated in the two Sahihs -Bukhari and Muslim that Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him)

رَوَى عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ أَنَّهُ قَالَ: خَلَقَ اللهُ تَعَالَى آدَمَ عَلَى صُورَتِهِ، طُولُهُ سِتُّونَ ذِرَاعًا، فَلَمَّا خَلَقَهُ قَالَ لَهُ: اذْهَبْ فَسَلِّمْ عَلَى أُولَئِكَ النَّفَرِ مِنَ الْمَلَائِكَةِ، جُلُوسٌ، فَاسْتَمِعْ مَا يُحَيُّونَكَ، فَإِنَّهَا تَحِيَّتُكَ وَتَحِيَّةُ ذُرِّيَّتِكَ. فَقَالَ: السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ. فَقَالُوا: السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ وَرَحْمَةُ اللهِ، فَزَادُوهُ: وَرَحْمَةُ اللهِ. فَكُلُّ مَنْ يَدْخُلُ الْجَنَّةَ عَلَى صُورَةِ آدَمَ، طُولُهُ سِتُّونَ ذِرَاعًا، فَلَمْ يَزَلِ الْخَلْقُ يَنْقُصُ بَعْدَهُ حَتَّى الْآنَ. [رَوَاهُ الْبُخَارِيُّ وَمُسْلِمٌ]

reported Allah's Messenger (Peace be upon him) as saying: Allah, the Exalted and Glorious created Adam in His own image with His length of sixty cubits, and as He created him He told him to greet that group, and that was a party of angels sitting there, and listen to the response that they give him, for it would form his greeting and that of his offspring. Adam then addressed them: Peace be upon you! They (the angels) said: May there be peace upon you and the Mercy of Allah, and they made an addition of "Mercy of Allah ". So he who would get into Paradise would get in the form of Adam, his length being sixty cubits, then the people who followed him continued to diminish in size up to this day. "(Al- Bukhari and Muslim)
