Discover the fascinating story of how Allah (SWT) created Prophet Adam (AS) with His own hands. Learn about Adam’s knowledge, the angels’ question, and the powerful lesson behind it.
The First Man Created by Allah with His Own Hands
Have you ever wondered how the first human was created? Let’s go back to the very beginning—when Allah (SWT) created Prophet Adam (AS) with His own hands and made him the first human on earth.
Everything Was Created for Us
Before creating Adam (AS), Allah (SWT) created everything on earth for humans—mountains, rivers, trees, animals, and everything in between. Then, He fashioned the skies into seven layers, each perfect in its design.
Allah Announces the Creation of a New Being
One day, Allah (SWT) told the angels,
"O Angels! I am going to place a vicegerent (a caretaker) on the earth."
The angels, in their curiosity, asked:
"Ya Allah, will You create a being that will spread corruption and shed blood, while we glorify You and sanctify You?"
Allah (SWT) responded,
"I know that which you do not know."
Adam (AS) Was Given Knowledge
Allah (SWT) then taught Adam (AS) the names of all things—something even the angels did not know. Imagine that! The first human was blessed with knowledge straight from Allah.
After that, Allah (SWT) turned to the angels and said,
"Tell me the names of these things if you are truthful."
The angels humbly replied,
"Ya Allah, we only know what You have taught us. Truly, You are the All-Knowing, the Most Wise."
Then Allah (SWT) commanded Adam (AS):
"O Adam, inform them of their names."
And Adam (AS) did so with ease, proving that Allah had gifted him with knowledge that the angels did not have.
At that moment, Allah (SWT) reminded the angels,
"Did I not tell you that I know what is unseen in the heavens and the earth? And I know what you reveal and what you conceal."
Lessons for Us
🌟 Allah’s wisdom is beyond our understanding.
The angels could not see the full plan of Allah, just like we sometimes question why things happen. But Allah knows what is best.
🌟 Knowledge is a blessing from Allah.
The first gift given to Adam (AS) was knowledge. This reminds us of the importance of seeking knowledge and using it wisely.
🌟 Humility is key.
The angels admitted that they didn’t know what Adam (AS) knew. Likewise, we should always remain humble and understand that no matter how much we learn, Allah’s knowledge is limitless.
