- 0:00Speaker 1: The Story of Adam A.S. Episode 1 Before the first
- 0:04Speaker 1: human Before cities Before nations Before kings and kingdoms Before
- 0:10Speaker 1: human beings walked upon the earth There was another world
- 0:14Speaker 1: A world created by Allah A world filled with mysteries
- 0:18Speaker 1: that human beings would never fully understand This is the
- 0:22Speaker 1: beginning of the story of Adam Peace be upon him
- 0:26Speaker 1: The first human being The first prophet and the father
- 0:30Speaker 1: of humanity. But before Adam was created, something else already existed,
- 0:36Speaker 1: the earth, the heavens, the angels, and another creation made
- 0:40Speaker 1: from fire, the jinn. To understand the story of Adam,
- 0:45Speaker 1: we must first travel back to a time before humanity.
- 0:49Speaker 1: A time when there were no human voices, no children,
- 0:53Speaker 1: no families, no cities, no civilization, only the creations of Allah.
- 0:59Speaker 1: Allah is the creator of everything. The heavens and the
- 1:02Speaker 1: earth exist only because he commanded them to exist. The stars,
- 1:07Speaker 1: the oceans, the mountains, the wind, the darkness, and the light,
- 1:13Speaker 1: everything belongs to Allah. Nothing exists without his knowledge. Nothing
- 1:18Speaker 1: happens without his permission. And long before Adam, peace be
- 1:22Speaker 1: upon him, walked upon the earth, Allah had already created
- 1:26Speaker 1: the angels. The angels are among the greatest creations of Allah.
- 1:31Speaker 1: They were created to obey him. They do not disobey Allah.
- 1:35Speaker 1: They carry out his commands. Some angels record the actions
- 1:40Speaker 1: of human beings. Some angels protect by the command of Allah.
- 1:44Speaker 1: Some bring revelation to the prophets. Some are responsible for
- 1:48Speaker 1: matters of the universe. And they worship Allah constantly. The
- 1:53Speaker 1: angels are not human beings. They do not live like humans.
- 1:57Speaker 1: They do not have the same desires and weaknesses that
- 2:00Speaker 1: humans have. Their purpose is to obey their creator. But
- 2:05Speaker 1: the angels were not the only creation before humanity. There
- 2:09Speaker 1: was another creation, the jinn. According to Islamic teachings, the
- 2:14Speaker 1: jinn were created from smokeless fire. They existed before human beings.
- 2:19Speaker 1: Like humans, they were given the ability to choose. They
- 2:23Speaker 1: could obey Allah or disobey him. Among the jinn was
- 2:27Speaker 1: one who was known for his worship. His name was Iblis.
- 2:31Speaker 1: Iblis was not an angel. This is an important part
- 2:34Speaker 1: of the story. Although he was among the angels because
- 2:37Speaker 1: of his worship and devotion, he himself was from the jinn.
- 2:42Speaker 1: For a long time, Iblis worshipped Allah. He was given
- 2:45Speaker 1: a high position. But deep inside him, something dangerous was growing.
- 2:51Speaker 1: Something that would eventually destroy him. Pride, arrogance, the belief
- 2:56Speaker 1: that he was better than others. And soon, Allah would
- 2:59Speaker 1: create someone whose arrival would change everything. Someone who would
- 3:04Speaker 1: become the beginning of humanity. Adam, peace be upon him.
- 3:08Speaker 1: The Quran tells us about a moment when Allah informed
- 3:11Speaker 1: the angels about his plan. Allah said that he would
- 3:15Speaker 1: place a successor, or representative, upon the earth. The angels
- 3:20Speaker 1: asked Allah about this creation. They said, In meaning, would
- 3:24Speaker 1: you place upon the earth someone who may cause corruption
- 3:27Speaker 1: and shed blood, while we glorify you and praise you?
- 3:31Speaker 1: But Allah answered them with words that carried a deep mystery.
- 3:35Speaker 1: He said, I know what you do not know. Allah
- 3:39Speaker 1: knew what the angels did not know. From this new
- 3:42Speaker 1: creation would come prophets. From humanity would come righteous people.
- 3:47Speaker 1: People who would worship Allah. People who would sacrifice everything
- 3:51Speaker 1: for the truth. Prophets would rise. Nations would be guided.
- 3:55Speaker 1: The names of Noah, Abraham, Moses, Jesus, and Muhammad, peace
- 4:01Speaker 1: be upon them all, would one day become part of
- 4:04Speaker 1: human history. From Adam would come generations beyond counting. Some
- 4:09Speaker 1: would choose goodness. Others would choose evil. Some would remember Allah.
- 4:14Speaker 1: Others would forget him. Humanity would be tested. Life on
- 4:18Speaker 1: earth would become a journey. A journey between faith and disbelief.
- 4:23Speaker 1: Between truth and falsehood.
