you hearing, sight and hearts (understanding). Little thanks do ye
give!

and created from it its mate and dispersed from both of
them many men and women. And fear Allaah, through
whom you ask one another (your mutual rights), and the
wombs [that bore you]. Indeed Allaah is ever, over you, an
Observer.
Quran 4:1

The story of Adam

11. And We have certainly created you, [O Mankind], and given you
[human] form. Then We said to the angels, "Prostrate to Adam"; so
they prostrated, except for Iblis. He was not of those who prostrated.
12. [Allaah] said, "What prevented you from prostrating when I
commanded you?" [Satan] said, "I am better than him. You created
me from fire and created him from clay.
13. [Allaah] said, "Descend from Paradise, for it is not for you to be
arrogant therein. So get out; indeed, you are of the debased.

15. [Allaah] said, "Indeed, you are of those reprieved."
16. [Satan] said, "Because You have put me in error, I will surely sit
in wait for them on Your straight path.
17. Then I will come to them from before them and from behind
them and on their right and on their left, and You will not find
most of them grateful [to You]."
18. [Allaah] said, "Get out of Paradise, reproached and expelled.
Whoever follows you among them - I will surely fill Hell with
you, all together."
Quran 7:15-18

Satan
From the mischief of the Whisperer (of evil), who withdraws (after his whisper).
Quran Surah Nas (Mankind) 4:4
98.So when you recite the Quran, [first] seek Gods protection from Satan, the
expelled [from His mercy].
99.No authority has he over those who believe and put their trust in their Lord.
100.His authority is over those only, who take him as patron and who join
partners with God.
Quran 16:98-100 See also 7:200-02
Verily Satan is an enemy to you: so treat him as an enemy. He only invites his
adherents, that they may become Companions of the Blazing Fire.
Quran 35:6

The story of Adam & Eve

19. And "O Adam, dwell, you and your wife, in Paradise and eat from wherever you
will but do not approach this tree, lest you be among the wrongdoers."
20. But Satan whispered to them to make apparent to them that which was
concealed from them of their private parts. He said, "Your Lord did not forbid
you this tree except that you become angels or become of the immortal."
21. And he swore [by Allaah] to them, "Indeed, I am to you from among the sincere
advisors."
22. So he made them fall, through deception. And when they tasted of the tree, their
private parts became apparent to them, and they began to fasten together over
themselves from the leaves of Paradise. And their Lord called to them, "Did I
not forbid you from that tree and tell you that Satan is to you a clear enemy?"
Quran 7:19-22

The story of Adam & Eve

23. They said, "Our Lord, we have wronged ourselves, and if You do not forgive us
and have mercy upon us, we will surely be among the losers."
24. [Allaah] said, "Descend, being to one another enemies. And for you on the earth
is a place of settlement and enjoyment for a time."
25. He said, "Therein you will live, and therein you will die, and from it you will be
brought forth."
Quran 7:23-25 See also 20:117-8
122. Then his Lord chose him, and relented toward him, and guided him.
123. He said: "Get ye down, both of you,- all together, from the Garden (Aden), with
enmity one to another: but if, as is sure, there comes to you Guidance from Me,
whosoever follows My Guidance, will not lose his way, nor fall into misery.
Quran 2:122-3

Testimony of Mankind
When thy Lord drew forth from the Children of Adam from their loins - their descendants, and made them testify
concerning themselves, (saying): "Am I not your Lord (who
cherishes and sustains you)?"- They said: "Yea! We do
testify!" (This), lest ye should say on the Day of Judgment:
"Of this we were never mindful".
Quran 7:172

16

The story of Adam & Eve

26. O children of Adam, We have bestowed upon you clothing to
conceal your private parts and as adornment. But the clothing
of righteousness - that is best. That is from the signs of Allaah
that perhaps they will remember.
27. O children of Adam, let not Satan tempt you as he removed
your parents from Paradise, stripping them of their clothing to
show them their private parts. Indeed, he sees you, he and his
tribe, from where you do not see them. Indeed, We have made
the devils allies to those who do not believe.
Quran 7:26-27

Adam & Eve

Adam and Eve meet at the Mountain of Mercy in
the Plains of Arafat, Arabia.
Here they both ask for forgiveness, hence the
name of the mountain.

The Oneness of God

Say: "O People of the Book! come to common terms as between us and you: That we
worship none but Allaah; that we associate no partners with him; that we erect not,
from among ourselves, Lords and patrons other than Allaah."
Quran 3:64 See also 3:65-71
Indeed, those who believed and those who were Jews or Christians or Sabeans [before
Prophet Muhammad] - those [among them] who believed in Allaah and the Last Day
and did righteousness - will have their reward with their Lord, and no fear will there
be concerning them, nor will they grieve.
Quran 2:62 See also 2:4-5; 285, 4:136; 152, 5:68-9 and 48:13
Verily, those who say: "Our Lord is Allaah (alone)," and then they stand firm, on
them the angels will descend (at the time of their death) (saying): "Fear not, nor
grieve! But receive the glad tidings of Paradise (jannah) which you have been
promised!" Quran 41:30

22

The Oneness of God

house of slavery; you shall have no other gods before me.
Old Testament (Exodus 2-3) See also Deuteronomy 5:6-7
One of the scribes came near and heard them disputing with one another, and
seeing that he answered them well, he asked him, "Which commandment is the
first of all?"
Jesus answered, "The first is, Hear, O Israel: the Lord our God, the Lord is
one;
You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and
with all your mind, and with all your strength."
New Testament (Mark 12:28-30)

The Children of Adam & Eve

Huwwa gives birth to multiple sets of mixed twins.
In the first set, we have Qabil (Cain) and Iqlima.
In the second set, we have Habil (Abel) and Labuda.
Upon reaching marrying age, the law is for each male
twin to marry a female twin of another twin set.
This practice is eventually outlawed by God.

27

The Story of Cain & Abel

Recite to them the truth of the story of the two sons of
Adam. Behold! they each presented a sacrifice (to Allaah): It
was accepted from one, but not from the other. Said the
latter: "Be sure I will slay thee." "Surely," said the former,
"Allaah doth accept of the sacrifice of those who are
righteous."
Quran 5:27

28

The Slaying of Abel

30. Then his mind facilitated to him the slaying of his
brother so he slew him; then he became one of the losers.
31. Then Allaah sent a raven, who scratched the ground, to
show him how to hide the shame of his brother. "Woe is
me!" said he; "Was I not even able to be as this raven,
and to hide the shame of my brother?" then he became
full of regrets.
Quran 5:30-31
