Hazrat Adam (Part 6a)
INFORMING THE ANGELS ABOUT PROPHET ADAM (A.S)
So ALLAH sent Micheal for the same purpose, and the land sought refuge with ALLAH and it was granted. So he went back and said to Allah what Gabriel has said before him. Then ALLAH sent the Angel of Death, and the land sought refuge in ALLAH, the angel said: I also seek refuge with Allah from returning without carrying out HIS command. So he took clay from the face of the Earth and mixed it. He did not take from one particular place, but rather he took white, red, and black clay from different places.
The Angel of Death ascended with it, Allah soaked the clay till it became sticky. Then Allah said to the angels:
Truly, I am going to create a man with the clay. So when I have fashioned him and breathed into him(his) soul created by ME, then you fall down prostrate to him.(Chapter 38:71-72 Qur'an)
So shaped Adam into a human being, but he remained a figure of clay for forty years. The angels went past him. They were seized with fear by what they saw, and Iblis felt fear most. He used to pass by the figures of Adam, buffering it, which would make a sound like pottery.ALLAH told us:
HE created man(Adam) from sounding clay like the clay of pottery(Chapter 55: Qur'an)
When the time drew near to breathe the spirit into Adam, as ALLAH decreed, HE commanded the angels: When I breathe MY spirit into him prostrate before him.ALLAH breathed his spirit into Adam and when it reached his head Adam sneezed. The angels said: Say all praise belongs to ALLAH. Adam repeated: All praise belongs to ALLAH.ALLAH said to him: YOur Lord has granted you mercy. When the spirit reached his eyes, Adam looked at the fruits of Paradise. When it reached his abdomen Adam felt an appetite for food. He jumped hurriedly before the spirit could reach his legs so that he could eat from the fruits of Paradise.
