This video is about the story of Genesis, specifically focusing on the creation of Adam (peace be upon him) as described in the Qur’an and authentic Hadiths. It explains how the story of Adam and Hawa is one of the most frequently repeated stories in the Qur’an due to its deep moral and spiritual lessons. The talk outlines the various substances mentioned in the Qur’an that contributed to Adam’s creation: water, dry sand (turab), topsoil (ard), sticky clay (teen laazib), and resonant dried clay (salsaal). These are shown to represent different phases of the same basic materials—water and earth—and not contradictions.
The lecture also explores how Allah created Adam from a handful of soil taken from various parts of the earth, symbolizing the diversity of mankind in color, character, and temperament. This diversity is likened to different types of soil: soft or hard, clean or filthy, fertile or barren. Additionally, it emphasizes the unique honor Allah bestowed on Adam by shaping him with His own hands and breathing into him the soul (ruh). Even before the ruh was blown into him, Iblees observed the lifeless form of Adam with envy. The first words Adam uttered upon receiving life were “Alhamdulillah,” to which Allah responded, “YarhamukAllah ya Adam.”
The talk also highlights theological affirmations through Hadith, such as Allah having directly created four things with His hands: Adam, the Pen, the Throne, and Paradise. Statements from the Sahabah, like Ibn Umar, are treated as elevated to hadith status when they deal with knowledge of the unseen. The video provides both a theological and spiritual reflection on the significance of Adam’s creation, his nature, and the honor he received from Allah. This video is about all of this and more. This video is thus complete.
