BEGINNING OF CREATION IN ISLAM · قناة الدعوة الإسلامية Islamic Teachings Gh

• 0:00
  In the beginning there was nothing but Allah, the Creator
• 0:03
  of all things. He existed before the universe,
• 0:06
  before time, before anything we can imagine, and from his
• 0:10
  infinite wisdom and power He brought forth the creation of
• 0:13
  the universe. Allah says in the Quran He is
• 0:17
  the 1st and the last, the ascendant and the intimate, and
• 0:20
  He is of all things knowing. Quran 57 to 3:00.
• 0:25
  This verse emphasizes that Allah is the beginning and the end,
• 0:29
  the source of all creation and knowledge.
• 0:31
  The Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him, said the first thing
• 0:35
  Allah created was the pen and he said to it write.
• 0:39
  The pen said, what should I write?
• 0:42
  Allah said write the destiny of everything until the day of
• 0:45
  Judgement. The pen then began to write and
• 0:48
  it continued to write until the end of time.

  Sahi Muslim This story illustrates the idea of
• 0:54
  predestination in Islam, which states that Allah has already
• 0:58
  determined everything that will happen in the world, including
• 1:01
  our actions and their consequences.
• 1:03
  However, this does not mean that we are not responsible for our
• 1:07
  choices and actions, as we have been given free will and the
• 1:10
  ability to choose right from wrong.
• 1:12
  The creation of the pen also emphasizes the importance of
• 1:16
  seeking knowledge and understanding, as everything
• 1:18
  that has happened and will happen has already been written
• 1:21
  down. It is up to us to learn from
• 1:23
  these events and use that knowledge to better ourselves
• 1:26
  and our communities. The story of the creation of the
• 1:29
  pen highlights the concept of predestination in Islam and the
• 1:33
  importance of seeking knowledge and understanding.
• 1:36
  It serves as a reminder that while Allah has already
• 1:38
  determined our fate, we still have a responsibility to use our
• 1:42
  free will to make good choices and actions in our lives.
• 1:46
  Allah further states in the Quran, Indeed, your Lord is
• 1:49
  Allah, who created the heavens and earth in six days and then
• 1:53
  established Himself above the throne.
• 1:55
  Quran 754. This verse shows that Allah
• 1:59
  created the universe in six days and then established Himself
• 2:02
  above the throne, demonstrating His ultimate power and
• 2:05
  authority. From the heavens and the earth,
• 2:08
  Allah created countless creatures, including angels,
• 2:11
  gin, animals and plants, and then He created the first human
• 2:16
  being, Adam, peace be upon him. Before the creation of the
• 2:20
  universe in mankind, Allah created the jinn.
• 2:24
  According to the Quran, the jinn were created from a smokeless
• 2:27
  flame of fire. Quran 55 to 15.
• 2:31
  They are beings of free will just like human beings and are
• 2:34
  capable of good and evil deeds. It is mentioned in Surah Al Jin
• 2:39
  72 that the Jinn were created before human beings and were
• 2:43
  given the same free will as us. They are also accountable for
• 2:47
  their deeds just like humans and will be judged on the Day of
• 2:50
  Judgement. The Quran also mentions that
• 2:53
  some Jinn are believers and some are disbelievers just like
• 2:56
  humans. Quran 72 to 11 Allah says in the
• 3:00
  Quran and I did not create the jinn in mankind except to
• 3:04
  worship me. Quran 51 to 56 This verse
• 3:08
  highlights the purpose of creation for both jinn and
• 3:11
  humans which is to worship Allah SWT.
• 3:14
  After the creation of the Jinn, Allah created the universe, the
• 3:18
  heavens and the earth. Then he created the first human
• 3:22
  being Adam, peace be upon him from clay and breathed into him
• 3:26
  the spirit of life. It is mentioned in Surah Al
• 3:29
  Hayer 15 that Allah created Adam peace be upon him from clay and
• 3:35
  then created his spouse Hawa Eve from his rib.
• 3:39
  They were placed in the Garden of Eden and given everything
• 3:42
  they needed to live a comfortable life.
• 3:44
  Allah says in the Quran and mention when your Lord said to
• 3:48
  the angels indeed I am going to create a human being from clay.
• 3:52
  So when I have proportioned him and breathed into him of my
• 3:55
  created soul then fall down to him in prostration.
• 4:00
  So the angels prostrated all of them entirely except Iblis.
• 4:05
  He was arrogant and became among the disbelievers.
• 4:08
  Quran 38 to 7174. This verse describes the
• 4:12
  creation of Adam, peace be upon him, and the disobedience of
• 4:16
  Iblis Satan, the Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him,
• 4:20
  said Allah created Adam from a handful of soil taken from
• 4:24
  different lands. So the children of Adam have
• 4:27
  been created according to the composition of the land.
• 4:30
  Therefore, from mankind we have white, red, black and yellow
• 4:34
  ones. Sahib Bukhari.
• 4:36
  This hadith emphasizes the unity of the human race and the
• 4:40
  diversity of its members. Adam, peace be upon him, was
• 4:44
  created in the Garden of Eden where he lived with his wife.
• 4:47
  Eve, peace be upon her. However, they were tested by
• 4:51
  Allah and were expelled from the Garden after disobeying his
• 4:54
  command. Allah says in the Quran, O Adam,
• 4:58
  dwell you and your wife in Paradise and eat from wherever
• 5:02
  you will, but do not approach this tree lest you be among the
• 5:05
  wrongdoers. Quran 235 This verse describes
• 5:09
  the command given to Adam, peace be upon him, and Eve, peace be
• 5:13
  upon her, and their subsequent disobedience.
• 5:16
  The Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him, said when Allah
• 5:20
  created Adam, he took a covenant from him at a place called Naman
• 5:24
  on the day of Arafat. Then Allah extracted from Adam
• 5:28
  all the offspring who would be born until the end of the world,
• 5:31
  generation after generation, and spread them out before Him to
• 5:34
  take a covenant from them. Also he spoke to them saying Am
• 5:38
  I not your Lord? And they all responded yes we
• 5:41
  testify to it. Allah then explained why He had
• 5:45
  taken the covenant saying that was in case you mankind should
• 5:49
  say on the Day of resurrection. We were unaware of this Sahi
• 5:53
  Muslim. This hadith emphasizes the
• 5:55
  importance of acknowledging Allah as our Lord and the
• 5:58
  accountability of all human beings on the Day of Judgment.
• 6:02
  Despite Adam's disobedience, Allah showed him mercy and
• 6:05
  forgiveness, and Adam, peace be upon him, repented to him.
• 6:10
  This teaches us the importance of seeking forgiveness and
• 6:13
  repenting for our mistakes. Allah says in the Quran, then
• 6:17
  Adam received from his Lord some words, and he accepted his
• 6:20
  repentance. Indeed, it is He who is the
• 6:23
  accepting of repentance. The Merciful Quran 237.
• 6:28
  This verse describes how Allah accepted Adam's repentance and
• 6:32
  showed him mercy.
