The document describes the creation of Adam (AS), the first human, from clay by Allah. Allah appointed Adam (AS) as his vicegerent ("khaleefa") on Earth. When the angels questioned if humans would cause corruption, Allah affirmed his knowledge that humans also possessed wisdom. Allah commanded the angels to bow to Adam (AS), but Shaitan disobeyed and was cursed. Allah created Eve as Adam's wife. They lived happily in Paradise until being deceived by Shaitan into eating the forbidden fruit, after which they realized their mistake and sought forgiveness from Allah.
![HAZRAT ADAM
(Alaihis Salaam)
There was a time when no one lived on the earth. Then Allah Ta’ala willed to in habit
it with human beings. The first human being, He created was Hazrat Adam (Alaihis
Salaam). He was made of clay; All of us are his offspring’s.
Allah had created genii and angles even before the human beings, when he willed to
create Hazrat Adam (A.S) he said to the angles, “we will send him as our khaleefa
(vice gerent) on earth.”
Do you know who is a khaleefa? We tell you. Suppose you have some property. If you
appoint some one, giving him necessary instructions, to manage the affairs of that
property, he will be your khaleefa there. Similar is the meaning of appointing man as
khaleefa on earth. This is Allah’s earth and He has sent here man to perform certain
duties. He has also given him necessary instructions. Therefore man should do here
everything according to Allah’s will; those who do accordingly, are Allah’s true
khaleefa.
So, when Allah told the angels that He wanted to send man as His khaleefa on earth,
they said, “we are afraid that this man will do mischief and bloodshed on earth,
while we are there to praise Thee and are always engaged in Thy worship,
Allah said, “You do not know what I know. How do you know what qualities we have
stored in man? When sent to earth, he will discover the hidden treasures there with
the help of his wisdom which we have granted him avail himself of our creations. Now
tell me if you know about those things. “”Our Lord”, replied the angels, “We don’t
know anything more than what you have told us. You are All-knower and All-wise.”
Than Allah asked Hazrat Adam [A.S] if he knew about those things. Hazrath Adam
(A.S) told every thing because he had know about everything on earth with the help of
the wisdom which Allah had given “Do you see,” Allah, then said to the angels, “we
had told you that we have knowledge of everything in the heavens and earth, whether
they are open or hidden.
There after Allah ordered the angels to bow down before Hazrat Adam (A.S) and
accept his superiority. All of them obeyed to Allah’s command, but Shaitan (Satan),
who was also present there, did not do so. Instead, he proudly said, “I just can’t bow
down before this man who is made of clay while I am better than him because I am
made of fire.”

![Allah did not like this proud attitude of Shaitan and expelled him from His court. He
was abused and will continue to be cursed till the Doom’s day when he and all his
followers will be thrown into Hell.
Allah also created for Hazrat Adam [A.s] wife ‘Hawwa (Eve), to live with. Hazrat
Hawwa (A.S) is the mother of all mankind. Then Allah sent both of them to Paradise.
There were very good fruits and other delicious eatables and comfort there. He asked
them to live there and eat and drink whatever they wished. He, however, forbade
them to go near a certain tree as it was of no use to them. They lived on in Paradise
happily.
On the other hand, Shaitan was very sad over his expulsion. But instead of accepting
his guilt, repenting, and seeking Allah’s forgiveness he became adamant with anger
and pride. Believing that Hazrat Adam (A.S) and Hazrat Hawwa (A.S) had caused his
expulsion from Allah’s court he decided to take revenge. As he was aware of Allah’s
command to the two about the particular tree, he one day approached them with an
innocent face and said. “Do you know why Allah has given everything to you in
Paradise but forbidden you from going near that tree! In fact, this is a very good tree
and anyone who eats its fruit will never die. He will rather become an angle.”
Swearing repeatedly, he said, “I am telling all this only because I am your friend well
wisher.”
Deceived by the innocent-looking man who claimed to be their friend but was, in fact
their enemy, Hazrat Adam (A.S) and Hazarat Hawwa (A.S) one day ate the forbidden
fruit. As soon as they did so, their bodies were stripped of the heavenly attire and
they were left naked. Poor Adam and Hawwa covered themselves with tree leaves.
But unlike Shaitan, they immediately realized that they had committed a grave
mistake and annoyed their Lord. Soon, they started beseeching Allah and seeking His
forgiveness. Allah liked this and forgave their mistake. He also told them Shaitan was
their open enemy and that they should not be deceived by these words.
After that Allah sent both of them to earth. He asked them to live there for some
time and do such deeds as pleased Allah. He also told them all such things that please
Him. Thus Hazrat Adam (A.S) was the first Messenger of Allah. Allah also told them
that whoever of them did good deeds and lived in the world as His true khaleefa,
would be sent back to Paradise after death and whoever did not tread His path, would
be thrown into Hell along with Shaitan.
Things to Remember
Man has always been man, and the offspring of Hazrat Adam (A.S). Those who say that
men’s ancestors were monkeys or apes, are wrong. They are in darkness and deprived
of Allah’s teachings.

Hadrat Adam (as)
- 1. HAZRAT ADAM (Alaihis Salaam) There was a time when no one lived on the earth. Then Allah Ta’ala willed to in habit it with human beings.

- 3. To err is human, but those who repent and seek Allah’s forgiveness are loved by Him while those who do not accept their mistake and repent, the brothers of Shaitan. They will be thrown into Hell. The first man who inhabited this earth, Hazrat Adam (A.S), was the Messenger of Allah. Thus Allah not only provided food and shelter, to man but also arranged for his guidance to the right paths from the very beginning. Man is the khaleefa of Allah on earth. It is his duty to utilize His bounties according to His will; Man has no authority or claim of ownership over anything here. The state belongs to Allah and should be governed according to His will and command. Those who obey Allah and follow His orders are His noble servants. They will find a place in Paradise in the Hereafter. Those who deny Allah’s existence and are not His true khaleefa, will be thrown into Hell because they annoy Allah.
