If no Soul pays for other soul`s sins. Why I must pay for what Adam did ?

Salam,
It says "Janna". Janna is a lush garden (a paradise).
We can see in 1832-42 the example of the man who had a "Janna", but because he wronged himself, God made his "Janna" no longer attractive or green.
Also, I would remind that Adam was chosen to be on "Earth" as a Khalifa (230) - which the Angels objected to. Had Adam been in "Heaven" then it would defeat the entire purpose of choice God made, basically thinking that He put him and his wife in the wrong place, hoping that they would sin so that they could be expelled to "Earth"?!
Khalifa on earth, as Inheriters of earth, sort of "managers". They did "go down" as the verse suggests, but did they keep the title of "khalifa" ?

Why do you say garden when in the Quran it says Adam was in paradise. For example Surah 235
Jannah in Arabic tends to be translated and understood as garden. Paradise is more like "Heaven" which is symbolized by Al-asema which could be seen like talking of bliss.

Peace everyone,
Everyone seems to be forgetting that Adam was forgiven before he was sent to Earth so his descent had nothing to do with his actions in the garden. Therefore our being on Earth has nothing to do with what Adam did. It was the Creator's plan all along. The real reason for us being on Earth is something else and if you read the quran it explains the reason (service to God - 5156).
237 Adam then received words from His Lord, so He forgave him; He is the Forgiver, the Merciful.
20121 So they both ate from it, and their bodies became apparent to them, and they began to place leaves on themselves from the paradise. Adam had disobeyed his Lord, and had gone astray.
20122 Then his Lord recalled him, and he forgave him, and gave guidance to him.
20123 He said "Descend from this, all of you, for you are enemies to one another. So, when my guidance comes to you, then, whoever follows my guidance, he will not go astray nor suffer."Peace

It is because his scene in the garden is an allegory. The "fruit", the "serpent" etc. It is worth remembering that ironically the most primitive part of the brain is called the reptile brain. The serpent is not an ethereal being called Satan but the innate call from the primitive body we are within with our much more superior spirit.
And we are all an Adam to the design and go through exactly the same test. In some languages (e.g. Farsi/Persian) our race is also called Adam.
And like you wrote, our situation on Earth is part of the plan. It is a test whether we will absorb ourselves utterly in the world and forget our origin or realize where we come from.
Be well

people usually confused when there is a difficulty in understanding language...
coz if we are in a building on sixth floor and and people at sixth floor make noise and break things , the incharge will say them to desend all of you from there to first floor or desend all of you from that building... dosent make that garden the paradise what is not created yet.. or even if it is created we did not qualify to enter it yet ... according to the law before judgement...
desend all of you from garden mean just you are no more the residents of that specific place in which there were facilities required for us to spend life... logic and reasonings suggest it must be on earth , which is suitable for life i mean this life what we have...

Khalifa on earth, as Inheriters of earth, sort of "managers". They did "go down" as the verse suggests,
but did they keep the title of "khalifa" ?Salaam/Peace Cerberus,
"khalifa" plural "khulafaa" essentially means "successor," plural "successors,"
for example, prophet Moses (PbuH) appointed his brother prophet Aaron (PbuH) as a "successor" to him (=akhlufni) therein (=7/142),
so, in a same/similar manner, the people of Hood were made "successors" (=khulafaa) after the people of Noah therein (=7/69),
so, in an exact same/similar manner here
==================
30- And your LORD said to the Angels I am placing a successor (=khalifa) on the earth. .........133- And your LORD is the Rich, Possessor of Mercy.
If HE wishes, HE can make you go away and thus bring after you as successors (=yastakhlif min badikum) whom HE Pleases,
just as HE established you (=i.e. as Human race, with our ancestor Adam and all those first Human population living with him therein
in that Garden =2/35-3
from the seed of another people (=from those prior Humanoid population therein living on the Earth before our ancestor Adam therein)
(as successor (=khalifa) to them therein, as emphasized in the above Verse).QURAN TESTAMENT 2/30 = 6/133
Thereby, I strongly believe that
we (as Human race, with our ancestors Adam and Eve and those first Human population living with them therein at that time, in that Garden, first of all)
were thus made successors (=khulafaa) ---(not to GOD, first of all, and not to Earth, not to anything else)--
but exclusively and only to those prior Humanoid population therein (Homo Habilis Skillful Humans) who were living on the Earth
before our ancestor Adam and Eve therein).In QURAN TESTAMENT I have never seen someone or something to be made successor (=khalifa) to GOD, at all.
In my Understanding, no one can never be a successor (=khalifa) to GOD.
Because our Lord AL-LAH does not need any successor (=khalifa) to HIM, in nowhere, never, at all.If I'm mistaken in my Understanding above, please, give me a clear example in Quran Testament
of someone or something that has ever been made successor (=khalifa) to GOD,that I may clearly see it, first, and then immediately repent and correct my Understanding,
in this case. (2/286 & 3/135-136)May AL-LAH guide all of us to HIS Straight Path. (=5/16)
Remain in peace/salaam.

Salaam/Peace to All,
====================
35- And We said O Adam, reside you and your spouse (Eve) in the Garden, and eat from it bountifully as you both wish,
and do not come near this "Tree," or, you will be of those who have wronged.36- But the Satan/Iblees caused them to slip from it, and he brought them out from what they were in,
and We said "Go down (all of you, and your descendants who will come to this World from you); as some of you are
rivals/competitors/enemies to some other;
and on the Earth you will have residence and provisions until the appointed time.37- Adam then received Words from his LORD, so HE redeemed him; (for) HE is the Best-Redeemer, the Most-Merciful.
QURAN TESTAMENT 2/35-37
In my understanding, the most important thing we should clearly see in the above Verses
is the Fact thatthis Sin committed by our ancestor Adam and Eve above is a Sin that is already committed by each and every Male and Female Human here,
who were / are / will be sent to this Earth (because of this) as a descendant of Adam and Eve above --(the reasons of it
is clearly pointed out in my previous post),and our Lord AL-LAH knows what is there in the hearts & minds of all of HIS Human Servants,
and what they would do in every situation (20/110 = 31/34), from the very beginning,and all of us already can clearly testify against ourselves (=75/14)
that we have indeed committed the same/similar Sin (not once, but --unknowingly or knowingly-- already how many times here) that our ancestors
Adam and Eve had committed above, in the first place. (*please, see it again in my previous post above.)For this Reason, our Lord AL-LAH holds all (Male and Female) Humans here equally responsible for committing such a Sin above,
in the first place,
and perfectly teaches us how to purify our selves/souls like our ancestor Adam and Eve rightfully did above (2/37 = 7/23),
here====================
72- We have offered "the Trust" unto the heavens and the earth, and the mountains, but they refused to bear it,
and were fearful of it.
And Human (collectively and rightfully) accepted it --(even before the foundation of this World, in the Sight of AL-LAH therein,
because Humans were granted by AL-LAH the sufficient understanding and capacity to rightfully accept it therein, in the first place =7/172);(but then by betraying it, as we witness it here in the Story of our ancestors Adam & Eve here, in the first place =2/35-36)--
(all of us) became unjust, ignorant --(therein =2/35-36).73- So that AL-LAH will retribute the hypocrite males and the hypocrite females, and the males who set up partners and the females who set up partners.
And AL-LAH will redeem the Believing Males and the Believing Females --(when/if we rightfully do now what our ancestors Adam and Eve did
and thereby our Lord AL-LAH redeemed them therein above =2/37 = 7/23).For AL-LAH is Best-Forgiver, Most-Merciful.
QURAN TESTAMENT 33/72-73
Remain in peace/salaam.

Salaam/Peace to All,
====================
141- HE is the ONE Who established Gardens (=Jannatin), trellised and untrellised, and palm trees, and crops with different tastes,
and olives, and pomegranate (therein), .........25- Give good news to those who believe and lead a righteous life that they will have Gardens (=Jannatin) with flowing streams.
When provided with a provision of fruits therein, they will say"This is (exactly) what was provided for us previously (in this World)."
Because they are given it in exact same/similar (=mutashabihan) manner. .........
QURAN TESTAMENT 6/141 = 2/25
Thereby, I strongly believe that
Gardens (=Jannatin) with all their Fruits therein that all truthful Believers will be admitted instantly
at the time of their normal death here (=16/30-32) will beas physical/real as Gardens (=Jannatin) of this Earth with exactly same/similar tasting Fruits therein.
It is also Scientifically accepted Fact now that such a (type 1) parallel Universe which is as physical/real as our Universe here
may actually exist in the farthest corners of our Universe (where the Light cannot even reach here because of the enormous expansion speed
of our Space-Time, from the very beginning.)So, in conclusion, all Humans who have done Good Deeds here and already passed away
may actually be alive now
with their perfect Human body/soul (=nafs) that is in exact same DNA make up and thus exactly same/similar even to their fingertips
therein (=75/3-4),
which never get older, never get sick, and nothing can never harm them therein (=2/38),and they may thus be enjoying the Ultimate Joy/Happiness of attaining the Approval of our Lord AL-LAH therein, first of all (=10/9-10),
and then, they may thus also be tasting all of those wonderful Fruits and Provisions
in those Gardens (=Jannatin) above (6/141 = 2/25);
may our Lord AL-LAH grant unto all of us to join them therein,
instantly, at the time of our normal death here,
at the very end of our Journey here, in this World=QURAN TESTAMENT 16/30-32 = 3/169-171
Remain in peace/salaam.
