PROPHET: ADAM (عليه السلام)

PART: 9

IBLIS REFUSES TO PROSTRATE

And then:

"The angels prostrated themselves all of them together. Except Iblis, he refused to be among the

prostrators. 

(Ch 15:31-32 Quran).

Abu Hurairah narrated that the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ Said: "Allah created Adam from dust after He mixed the clay and left him for some time until it became sticky mud, after which Allah shaped him. After that Allah left him till it became like potter's clay. 

Iblis used to go past him saying 'You have been created for a great purpose.' 

After that Allah breathed His spirit into him. The first thing into which the spirit passed was his eye and then his nose. He sneezed. 

Allah Said: 

"May your Lord have mercy upon you, O Adam! Go to those angels and see what they would

say. So Adam went and greeted them. 

They replied saying: 

"Peace be upon you and the mercy and blessings of Allah."

Allah said: 

"O Adam! This is your greeting and that of your offspring." 

(Sahih al Bukhari).

Adam's Progeny Accept Allah

Allah the Almighty revealed:

"Remember when your Lord brought forth from the children of Adam, from their loins, their seed

(or from Adam's loin his offspring) and made them testify as to themselves saying: 'Am I not your Lord?' 

They said: 

'Yes! We testify' lest you should say on the Day of Resurrectio:. 'Verily we have been unaware of this'. 

Or lest you should say: 

'It was only our father aforetime who took others as partners in worship along with Allah and we were merely their descendants after them; will you then destroy us because of the deeds of men who practiced al batil (polytheism) and committing crimes and sins, invoking and worshipping others besides Allah?'

Thus do We explain the Ayah (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations etc) in detail so that they may turn unto the truth". 

(Ch 7:172-174 Quran).

Adam's progeny declared: 

"Our Lord, we bear witness that You are our Lord; we have no other Lord but Allah. Allah raised their father Adam, and he looked at them and saw those of them who were rich and those who were poor, and those who had good forms and those who did not.

Adam Said: 

"O Allah! I wish You to make Your servants equal." Allah replied "I love being thanked." Adam saw among the prophets like lamps among his progeny.
