Narrative on Creation of Adam (sws) because of Muhammad (sws)
Hadith & Sunnah
Dr. Shehzad Saleem

 

 حدثنا محمد بن داود ثنا أحمد بن سعيد الفهري ثنا عبد الله بن إسماعيل المدني عن عبد الرحمن بن زيد بن أسلم عن أبيه عن جده عن عمر بن الخطاب قال قال رسول الله  صلي الله عليه وسلم  لما أذنب آدم   ب   الذي اذنبه رفع رأسه إلى العرش فقال أسألك بحق محمد إلا غفرت لي فأوحي الله إليه وما محمد ومن محمد فقال تبارك اسمك لما خلقتني رفعت رأسي إلي عرشك فإذا فيه مكتوب لا إله إلا الله محمد رسول الله فعلمت أنه ليس أحد أعظم عندك قدرا ممن جعلت اسمه مع اسمك فأوحى الله إليه يا آدم إنه آخر النبيين من ذريتك وإن أمته آخر الأمم من ذريتك ولولا هو يا آدم ما خلقتك لم يرو هذا الحديث عن زيد بن أسلم إلا ابنه عبد الرحمن ولا عن ابنه إلا عبد الله بن إسماعيل المدني ولا يروى عن عمر إلا بهذا الاسناد

‘Umar ibn al-Khattab stated: “God’s Messenger (sws) said: ‘When Adam committed that sin, he raise his head to God’s throne and said: “I beseech you in the name of Muhammad to forgive me.” At this, God revealed to him: “What is Muhammad and who is Muhammad.” Adam replied: “May your may be held aloft, when you created me, I look up towards you throne and found the words written there: ‘There is no god except God and Muhammad is His God’s Messenger,’ whereby I realized that that there is no one whose name holds more value before you than his name because you have placed his name alongside yours.” Thereupon, God revealed to him: “O Adam! He is the last of prophets from your progeny and his nation is the last of nations from your progeny and were it not for him, I would not have created you.”’”1
