Do you want to hear that story?

Alright.
Now before I start the story
let me ask you a question.
This is getting very interesting.
Go ahead Baba..
Ask me the question
Alright..now tell me
Do you know who was the first man
to live on earth?
Can you give me a clue, please..?
Hahaha..
Alright, here are
some options.
Was it Adam (AS), Kane or Iblis?
I know the answer.
It was Adham (AS)
Masha Alllah..
You are right my son!
Alright, now let me
start the story
Bismillah..!
A long long time ago..
Allah (T)
created the sun.
The moon, and the earth.
After creating these,
he saw that his creation
was incomplete.
So he asked his angels to collect
clay from the earth.
The obedient angels collected clay
and Allah made a man
like figure with it.
And the god named him
Adam (AS)
But the figure didn't move for
forty long years.
It just stood
still there.
When Iblis saw this figure,
he was confused and scared.
And after forty long years
one day..
Allah (T) breathed his spirit
into Adham (AS)!
When the spirit reached
the head of the figure,
it sneezed.
When the spirit reached his eyes,
he saw all the amazing food
lying around.
Then the spirit reached
his stomach.
And Adham (AS) felt hungry.
The Prophet had seen the
fruits lying around
So before the spirit could even
reach his legs,
he jumped towards the fruits.
Adham (AS) fell down as he
couldn't move his legs.
Then, Allah asked all the angels
including Iblis
to prostrate before Adham (AS)
as a sign of respect.
One by one
all the angels prostrated
before the Prophet
except Iblis!
Iblis said that he was better
than the Prophet
and he was made from fire.
Allah got angry with
this disobedience
so he banished Iblis
from paradise.
From that day,
Iblis was called
as the Shaytan!
And he was thrown into the hell!
Shaytan was now very angry
with the humans
as he was banished from
the paradise.
Because of them,
he wowed to take revenge by
misleading the humans.
Allah then taught Adam
the names of every animal
in paradise.
The lion, the sheep, camel
Elephant,dove,peacock and
many many more..
Allah told the Prophet
that he was allowed to eat every
fruit in the garden
except one.
God told the Prophet
that he should not eat
the fruit of the tree of knowledge
and that it was forbidden
and he spent most of his time
playing with the animals in paradise.
After a few years, the
Prophet became lonely
as there were no other
humans in paradise.
Allah (T) saw this.
So he decided to give
Adam (AS) a wife.
That night when the Prophet
was sleeping
God created the first woman.
When the Prophet woke up
he was happy to see the woman
He then named her Hawwa,
because she was made
from something living.
Both of them lived happily in
paradise for a long time.
Shaythan was still angry
at the humans.
Many years had passed by.
So Shaytan knew that the Prophet
must have forgotten the
words of Allah (T)
One day..
made a plan that would
banish the Prophet
and his wife from paradise.
Shaytan came to the paradise
and tricked the Prophet
and his wife
into eating the forbidden fruit.
The Prophet and his wife unknowingly
plucked the fruit
and started eating it.
But even before they could
finish eating the fruit
they knew they had committed
a grave sin.
They were now filled with pain
Sadness and shame
After eating the fruit of
forbidden knowledge
they realized they
were naked.
For they ran to cover
themselves upon leaves
They were now really scared.
As they knew Allah would punish
him for their disobedience.
When Allah (T) came to
know about this
he got angry.
He got angry
And the Prophet and his wife were
thrown out of the paradise.
The Prophet and his wife walked
for a very long time
And they finally settled down
near a river.
The Prophet knew that the life on earth
was going to be very difficult
He had to make a house
for them to live.
He had to work hard to
feed his family.
They, now no longer have the pleasures
they enjoyed in paradise
After a few years
Hawwa gave birth to twins-
a boy and a girl.
They named the boy Qabil
and later Hawwa gave birth to
another twins.
Again a boy and a girl
This time they named
the boy Habil.
Both Habil and Kabil grew up
Qabil took to farming
working in the fields
and growing crops
When Habil grew up
he became a shepherd
and took care of the sheeps.
When Habil and Qabil grew up to
become adults
the Prophet decided to
get them married.
Since there were no other
females on earth
Prophet decided to get Qabil married
to Habil's twin
and Habil to Qabil's twin
Qabil's twin sister was beautiful.
while Haabil's sister was not
that beautiful
Qabil was not happy with
the arrangement
And he wanted to marry
his own sister.
There was an argument
And the Prophet decided to settle the issue
by offering a sacrifice to Allah (T)
It was decided that the one who's
sacrifice is accepted
will marry Qabil's sister.
Habil collected the best lamb
from his cloak
and offered it as a
sacrifice to Allah (T)
But Qabil didn't want to offer the best
fruits and vegetables as sacrifice.
Instead he chose the bad vegetables
and grains for sacrifice
Allah (T) accepted the
sacrifice of Habil.
But rejected the one
made by Qabil.
The Prophet was present when they
made their sacrifices.
And it was decided that Habil
would marry Qabil's sister.
But Qabil was not at all happy
He was so angry that he
wanted to kill Habil
One day Habil was late
coming home.
And the Prophet send Qabil
to search for him
Qabil went searching for Habil
and he went to the fields
looking for Habil.
Atlast he found Habil walking
towards home
Qabil was still angry
with Habil.
"Your offering was accepted
but mine was not"
to which Haabil replied
"Allah only accepts from
those who fear him."
Qabil was angry to hear this
and he picked up a stone to hit Habil
Habil saw this and eventhough he was
bigger and stronger than Qabil
He said," Even if you stretch
your hand to kill me
I will never stretch my hands
to harm you.
Because I fear Allah"
This comment further angered Qabil,
and he struck him with the stone,
instantly killing him!
When Qabil realized that
Habil was dead,
he was terrified and didnât
know what to do!
He didnât want his father to know
what he has done,
so he started thinking about
ways to hide his sin.
Qabil wandered from place to place with
the dead body of Habil
trying to hide it.
That was when he saw two crows
fighting with each other.
During the fight, one crow
killed the other,
and the dead one fell down.
The victorious crow then scratched and
dug a hole in the ground!
He buried the dead crow in the
hole he had dug.
Then he filled the hole
with mud.
This gave Qabil an idea,
and like the crows,
he dug a hole on the ground,
and buried his brothers body in it.
This was the first burial of a man.
Qabil was ashamed of what
he had done.
Shaytan had won over him,
and he knew that he could no longer
go back to his family.
The prophet knew what
had happened
and he mourned the
loss of his son.
He had lost both his sons-
one was dead,
and the other was misled
by Shaytan!
He warned his other children
about Shaytan,
and asked them to always obey the
commands of Allah (T)
After a long long time,
the prophet had many
more children!
The prophet had grown old,
and his children loved
him very much.
When Adam (AS) realized that his
death was near,
he appointed Seth as the
successor to his family
At the time of his death,
the angels came to his house and
stood beside him.
When the prophet realized that the angel
of death had arrived,
he smiled peacefully and
passed away
Masha Allah, that was such
a wonderful story!
Alhamdulillah.. Iâm glad you

Alright, now for the next question.

from the paradise?
They were banned because they ate the
fruit of forbidden knowledge.
Thatâs why God threw them
out of the paradise.
Isn't that right Baba?
Thatâs correct my dear!
Now for the next question.

Prophetâs first sons
