PROPHET: ADAM (عليه السلام)

PART: 14

ADAM SEES EVE

Ibn Abbas and a group of companions of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ narrated that when Iblis was sent out of Paradise and Adam was accommodated therein, 

Adam was alone in Paradise and did not have a partner from whom he could get tranquility. He slept for some time and when he woke up, he saw a woman whom Allah had created from his ribs. So he asked her, "Who are you? 

She replied, "A woman" 

He asked: "Why have you been created?" 

She said :"So that you could find tranquility in me." The angels, trying to find out the extent of his knowledge, 

Asked him: "What is her name, O Adam?" 

He replied, "Eve". 

They asked: "Why was she so named?" 

He replied, 

"Because she was created from something living."

𝗘𝘃𝗲's Creation

Muhammad Ibn Ishaaq and Ibn  Abbas related that Eve was created from the shortest left rib of Adam while he was sleeping and after awhile she was clothed with flesh. That is why Allah the Exalted Said:

"O 𝗠ankind! Be dutiful to your Lord, Who created you from a single person (Adam) and from Him (Adam) He created his wife (Eve), and from them both He created many men and women. 

(Ch 4:1)

Allah also Said:

"It is he Who has created you from a single person (Adam) and then He created from him his wife (Eve), in order that he might enjoy the pleasure of living with her."

(Ch 7:189).

Establishing the Islamic Greeting

Abu Hurairah Narrated that the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ Said: 

"O Muslim's! I advise you to be gentle with women, for they are created from a rib, and the most crooked portion of the rib is its upper part. If you try to straighten it, it will break and if you leave it, it will remain crooked, so I urge you to take care of the women." 

(Sahih Bukhari).

Allah commanded Adam to dwell in Paradise: 

"O Adam! Dwell you and your wife in the Paradise and eat both of you freely with pleasure and delight of things therein as wherever you will,

But come not near this tree or you both will be of the Zaalimeen (wrong doers)."

(Ch 2:35)
