Our father ADAM and our mother EVE. PART(3)

All angels prostrated to Adam. They obeyed Allah, glorified His name and circled Him. Iblis(Satan) belonged to the jinn. He disobeyed Allah’s orders when he did not prostrate to Adam. Allah, the Glorified, asked: “I’m better than him. You created me from fire and created him from clay. Fire is better than clay.”

Allah dismissed Iblis from His presence. He dismissed him from His mercy. Iblis bore malice against Adam from that time.

Iblis envied Adam and then harbored hatred against him. He was a haughty, envious and spiteful creature. He loved no one except himself.

Iblis devoted all his time to mislead Adam.

Allah dismissed Iblis from His mercy. He said to him: “Go out! You are cursed! My curse will be on you till the Day of Judgment!

Iblis said: “My Lord, give me time till the Day of Judgment.” Allah, the Glorified, said: “You are of the respited ones till the Judgment Day.”

Iblis said: “As You have caused me to remain disappointed, I will for them in Your straight path.”

How cursed Iblis was! How stubborn and deceitful he was! He said that Allah, the glorified, tempted him. He did not blame himself for his disobeying to Allah. He did not say that he envied Adam and bore malice against him. He did not say that he was haughty, for he did not prostrate to Adam and did not obey Allah.

Iblis became an unbeliever. He became haughty and than he became an unbeliever. He thought that he was better than Adam, for he was created from fire and Adam was created from dust and clay.

Iblis was selfish. He forgot that Allah created him. Allah ordered him to carry out His orders. However, Iblis disobeyed Allah.


EVE

Allah created Adam alone. Then He created Eve for him. Adam rejoiced at his wife and she rejoiced at meeting him.

Allah, the Glorified, made our father Adam and our mother Eve live in the garden.

The garden was a very beautiful place. It had many rivers and immortal green tree.

It was an everlasting spring. It had neither heat nor cold, rather, it had fresh breezes.

When one filled his chest with those breezes, he felt happy.

Allah, our Lord, said to Adam: “Live you and your wife in the garden. Eat from it whenever you want.

“Live wherever you like and eat whatever you like.

“You will be happy in the garden for there is neither tiredness nor hunger nor thirst in it.

“Be careful not to approach that tree. Be careful not to listen to Ibis’s words for he will deceive you. He is your and your wife’s enemy. Adam, he will envy you and he will bear malice against you.”

Adam and his wife Eve lived in the garden. They enjoyed its shade and ate from its fruit. They were happy.

Adam and Eve were very happy for Allah had created them with His own hand and gave them all things. Angels loved them, for Allah created and loved them.

Adam and Eve walked about the garden. They ate from its fruit and sat at the banks of its rivers. The banks were fascinating.

The rivers were full of corundum and agate. Fresh clear water washed their feet. There were rivers of delicious honey and rivers of yogurt. There were birds and flowers. Adam and Eve were very happy in the garden, for everything in it belonged to them.

They ate from all the fruits, which were of various shapes, colors and smell, however, they were all delicious.

Adam and Eve always passed by a tree in the middle of the garden. The tree was very beautiful and its fruit was hanging. Adam and Eve only looked at it for Allah had prevented them from approaching it and eating from its fruit.

THE EARTH
During that period of time, the earth ,the waves of seas and storms became calm. Many volcanoes were extinguished.
Jungles grew and became dense. They were full of animals and birds. Fresh water gushed out of springs.
Rivers flowed.
The good wind carried clouds to deserts. The rain poured down to enliven the deserts.
When good wind carried clouds to deserts. The rain poured down to enliven the deserts.
The earth became green. Plants and jungles became fascinating. Fresh water flowed in rivers. Cool, fresh water gushed out of springs. Birds woke by day. They flew to look for food .Animals woke day too and went here and there to search for food.
Deer ran in jungles. Ibexes ran at the foot of the mountains .Butterflies flew about gardens looking for the nectar of flowers. Wild animals roared in the jungles. Every thing in the earth grew and reproduced, so the earth was full of life and beauty.
Trees bore fruit. Sheep and goats went to caves to escape from wild animals.
Everything followed the way o God(Allah), the Great and Glorified .The earth was very pretty. It was colorful. The oceans were blue and the jungles were green. Hills were covered with plants. Deserts were brown and ice was white. The rays of the sun were red at rising, but man had no existence yet.
ADAM, THE FIRST MAN
At a moment of divine favor and mercy, God (Allah) breathed life into the clay statue. The statue sneezed and said “ Praise belongs to Allah. “
The sprit crept into Adam. He breathed, open his eyes and moved his hands and legs. He became a normal human being.
Then he rose and walked away. He began to think and consider. He knew the beautiful and the ugly. He recognizes the truth and falsehood, good and evil, happiness and unhappiness.
God ordered angels to prostrate to Adam. He ordered them to prostrate to what He created and said "Blessed be God, the Best of Creators!" to himself because of creating that creature. All angels prostrated to Adam. Angels knew nothing except obedience to God. They always glorified God. They always submitted to God. However, there was another creature. The creature did not prostrate to Adam. This was a jinn. God created the jinn six thousand years before He created our father, Adam. No one knows whether these years were spent on the earth or on other stars.God created the jinn from fire. Iblis (Satan) did not prostrate to Adam. He did not obey God. He spoke to himself: "I am better then Adam, for I have been created from fire." Iblis (Satan) was haughty. He refrained from prostrating to Adam, who was created from clay.

Our father ADAM and our mother EVE. PART(1)

Allah created the universe millions of years ago. He created stars, planets and skies. He created angels from light. He created the jinn from fire. He created the earth.
The earth was not the same as it is today. It was basically covered with water. Waves were rough. The wind blew strongly. Volcanoes were ablaze. Huge meteors attacked the earth.
There was no life on the earth, in the sea and on lands.
Millions of years ago, small fishes appeared in the sea and simple plants appeared on the land. Then life developed gradually. Animals like reptiles and amphibians appeared on the surface of the earth.
Dinosaurs of various kinds appeared, too. From time to time, ice covered the earth. So, plants and animals died. New kinds replaced them. From time to time ,the ice melted and life retuned to the earth again.
Long ago, the earth was unstable because of volcanoes, earthquakes, strong winds and rough waves. Ice had not melted yet. Allah(God) took earth from heights, plains, salt marches and fertile land. He mixed the earth with water, so the earth became clay with solid molecules. From that day, Allah, the Glorified, created a shape like man. The shape had a head, two eyes, a tongue, two lips, a nose, two ears, a heart, two hands, a chest and two legs.
The water steamed. The man-like shape became as solid as stone. The wind was whistling through it.
That shape remained sleeping for a long time. Nobody knows the length of time except God.
