    GOD created earth and the right condition for life "Kaddara Fiha Akwataha Fi Rabaati Ayaamin ?", then GOD populated the earth.--All creations come from water, the single cell that gave birth to all species at first. Bashar was also created from that single cell,"Faida Sawwaytuhu Wa Nafakhtu Fihi Min Ruhi?" then this bashar was given time to evolve, like all the other species, then became "Insaan" after "Nafakhtu Fihi Min Ruhi-Spirit-.. Then Adam was put to the test ...etc.

    All the time bashar and after it Insan was ,like all animals was reproducind and evolving.
    GOD bless you.
    Peace..

    Salam bro,

    After Adam and his spouse were removed from paradise how did they populate. They were only two or did God create other human beings.

    I don't understand

    God bless you

        All you have todo is look for all the ayas that speak about Adam, or the creation or man, which appear at the end of most Qur'ans and read. I do not know by numbers by heart, so I would have to look for them myself.

        Salaam

          Science says we evolved from a different species to become Humans.. We can keep it this way, Adam and Eve are latest software versions that are created by God and those are updated upon on some already existing species in earth... Thus we are all copies of Adam and Eve. )

              There was a community of Adam in heaven, therefore .. no incest.

              We said, "Adam, live in the Garden, you and your wife, and eat freely from it wherever you will. But do not approach this tree and so become wrongdoers." But Shaytan made them slip up by means of it, expelling them from where they were. We said, "Go down from here as enemies to each other! You will have residence on the earth and enjoyment for a time." (235-36)

              Do they say that Ibrahim and Ismail and Ishaq and Yaqub and the Tribes were Jews or Christians? Say, "Do you know better or does Allah?" Who could do greater wrong than someone who HIDES THE EVIDENCE he has been given by Allah? Allah is not unaware of what you do. THAT WAS A NATION WHICH HAS LONG SINCE PASSED AWAY. It has what it earned. You have what you have earned. YOU WILL NOT BE QUESTIONED ABOUT WHAT THEY DID. (2140-141)

                Salam to All,

                I would like to ask the are we did we come from inbreeding. I mean after Adam and eve is that their children married each other?

                God bless you all

                Peace centi50, we can only speculate about how the earth was populated.

                they have no clue how and where to start about the creation of life.

                for understanding it they need to experience how LIFE come in to being.

                Agreed

                adam is the species, like neanderthal, not a cingle person and in the Qur'an adam is someime singular, sometimes plural and sometimes dual adam and partner. zawch, without atributing any gender to the zawch.

                Salaam

                Agreed

                So it was nt a single man nmed adm, but a species that upgraded to human.

                nope makes no sense, human evolution is non-sense.

                Science says we evolved from a different species to become Humans.. We can keep it this way, Adam and Eve are latest software versions that are created by God and those are updated upon on some already existing species in earth... Thus we are all copies of Adam and Eve. )

                nope They only guess, One species does not "turn into" another or several other species

                peace

                  Salaam bro,

                  Why do you say there was a community of Adam in head.

                  Any reason

                  God bless

                    You need more than Adam and Eve to go down from heaven as enemies to each other..

                    and other verses corroborating with this argument...

                    When your Lord took out all their descendants from the loins of the children of Adam and made them testify against themselves... (7172)

                    Indeed, We offered the Trust to the heavens and the earth and the mountains, but they refused to bear it and they feared from it; but bore it the man... (3372)

                    When your Lord said to the angels, "I am putting a khalif on the earth," they said, "Why put on it one who will cause corruption on it and shed blood ...?" (230)

                      Just to clear something. There is no Eve in the Qur'an, just adam, whoever it is meant, andam and partner or mate, no personal name, just name of the specicies, whether it is meaning an individual an archetypal couple or the whole group. Just like we ay the neanderthal and we may mean a single of them or the neanderthal and his or her mate or the whole neanderthal people.

                      Salaam

                          Kindly point me for this so I can read

                          God bless

                          Salaam centi 50

                          There is a lot in Quran on this subject. Let us see what we get from 230

                          And when ypur Rabb said to the malaika surely I am appointing a successor in the earth.
                          They said are you appointing in it one who makes disorder and sheds blood in it.......

                          The points to ponder are

                          means to appoint/designate

                          is present tense and means he makes disorder

                          is present tense and meas he sheds so things were happening at that time.

                          230 tells me that there was a race on the earth spreading disorder and shedding blood when God decided to appoint it as a successor.

                          231

                          And He taught Adam knowledge of things.......

                          The knowledge changed the animal behaviour and human race started to become civilized.

                          3020

                          And from His signs is that He created you all from dust then when you became bashar you scattered around.

                          It is talking about human race and not only one person Adam.

                          1528-29 (&#65279

                          And when your Rabb said to the malaika surely I am creating a bashar from the sounding clay from decayed mud. So when I give him perfection and blow in him from my knowledge then submit to him.

                          Here the verb is used that means he created. Then an evolutionary process is hinted by saying when I give him perfection. Them imparting knowledge is mentioned.

                          Please reflect on these ayats and see how human started and spread on the earth. I wish I could have more time to explain more from Quran.

                            230 tells me that there was a race on the earth spreading disorder and shedding blood when God decided to appoint it as a successor.

                            how you come to this conclusion my brother ? there are lot of theories and hypothesis about this verse.

                            THEORY 1 it was already a race (shared) a common thing called ?decision making will? i changed FREE will into decision making for understanding better the difference between human/jinn compared to rest of the species.so the beings AL-JINN were already present sharing same nature of character provided to both beings.

                            in light of this they were already aware human will definately shed blood once God loaded a character of SELF in it.

                            theory 1 is backedup by evidence as its already mention al-jinn are created before humans.

                            THEORY 2 advance beings who are in the status of controlling physical laws ( FORCES of nature) were already knew about some possible outcomes of creating humans as they knew providing authority to being like HUMAN/JINN will create bloddsheeding but along with blood sheeding the same human learn how to fly in the sky and how to give humanity a benefit and unlocking the laws of nature for their own use make human a HUMAN. ?intelligent being?

                            thats why creator said ?i know what u dnt know? . so basically God is aware of each and every atom of this universe/s.

                            and controllers only know what they need to know.

                            RED part of your post is illogical becoz if they already sheeding blood so why controllers asked, dnt controllers know that God already know they are shedding blood ? ur theory is lacking in evidence and logic.

                            EVOLUTION and CREATION are two different things my brother.

                            monkey was always monkey
                            ape was always ape
                            goat was always goat
                            human was always human.

                            ( theory of darwin vs theory of quran vs theory by other scientists ) study it as a whole.

                            real ISSUE is not creation/evolution of our body tissues.
                            REAL issue is how LIFE come onto being ?
                            what is the link of LIFE with animals & plants.

                            scientists never can understand things what are invisible but exist.
                            our lifeforce is REAL but have no value in medical science. its our BODY when connects with devices/machines tells the status of LIFEFORCE.

                            may b in advance universes people connects LIFEFORCE to devices for updating/operating physical bodies. and by checking through lifeforce we crack a formula of how to cure/create LIFEFORCE by saving the physical structure of character/self treating it on level accurate example once cancer reach at third stage there is nothing can save that body to get destroyed. but when u already know whats cause the problem in body and u have spareparts of faulty parts. then u can update ur lifeforce as long as u want.

                            WE are sub-creators of cars and we can make a CAR upon CAR delivering her LIFEFORCE(oiling&fueling) and BODY( hardware & interior).

                            here we have both things for our creation hence we know what we create.

                            in the matter of LIFE its a big mystery we are missing in FUEL. so our bodies are the cars that have limited one time fuel untill we are visiting planet earth.

                            scientists need to find that FUEL that cause LIFE.

                              RED part of your post is illogical becoz if they already sheeding blood so why controllers asked, dnt controllers know that God already know they are shedding blood ? ur theory is lacking in evidence and logic.

                              Brother people who know the language can see the logic of what I wrote. Malaika did not ask but said that "are you appointing the one who creates disorder and sheds blood". The red part above is "kaloo" which translates as "they said".

                              Problem is the translations done under the influence of a biblical story of adam. They translated it as " Are you appointing one who WILL create disorder and who WILL shed blood." The text says "who is creating disorder and shedding blood". Not a future event but an observable event happening at that time. Malaika do not have knowledge of future and nor do they object or ask why to God's decision. They said what they were watching on the earth.

                              EVOLUTION and CREATION are two different things my brother.

                              monkey was always monkey
                              ape was always ape
                              goat was always goat
                              human was always human.

                              ( theory of darwin vs theory of quran vs theory by other scientists ) study it as a whole.

                              Sorry brother Quran tells us that creation is through evolution. And yes species were evolved independent of each other. There is no jumping from Apes to Humans or any other species. The life started at unicellular level for each species. The evolution changes species from unicellular to complex systems.

                              41

                              Muhammad Asad (The Message Of Quran)
                              41 O MANKIND! Be conscious of your Sustainer, who has created you out of one living entity, and out of it created its mate, and out of the two spread abroad a multitude of men and women.1 And remain conscious of God, in whose name you demand from one another, and of these ties of kinship. Verily, God is ever watchful over you!

                              Note 1
                              Out of the many meanings attributable to the term nafs - soul, spirit, mind, animate being, living entity, human being, person, self (in the sense of a personal identity), humankind, life-essence, vital principle, and so forth - most of the classical commentators choose "human being", and assume that it refers here to Adam. Muhammad 'Abduh, however, rejects this interpretation (Manar IV, 323 ff.) and gives, instead, his preference to "humankind" inasmuch as this term stresses the common origin and brotherhood of the human race (which, undoubtedly, is the purport of the above verse), without, at the same time, unwarrantably tying it to the Biblical account of the creation of Adam and Eve. My rendering of nafs, in this context, as "living entity" follows the same reasoning - As regards the expression zawjaha ("its mate&quot, it is to be noted that, with reference to animate beings, the term zawj ("a pair", "one of a pair" or "a mate&quot applies to the male as well as to the female component of a pair or couple; hence, with reference to human beings, it signifies a woman's mate (husband) as well as a man's mate (wife). Abu Muslim - as quoted by Razi - interprets the phrase "He created out of it (minha) its mate" as meaning "He created its mate out of its own kind (min jinsiha)", thus supporting the view of Muhammad 'Abduh referred to above. The literal translation of minha as "out of it" clearly alludes, in conformity with the text, to the biological fact that both sexes have originated from "one living entity".

                              The origin of human race is from "nafsin wahidatin" translated as "adam by biblical mullahs but it is now understood as "single cell" after understanding evolution in creation.

                                    Do we know for sure how other animal species came into being? For example how horses or cows emerged? Did they come from one single pair or a community of them formed simultaneously?

                                    396

                                    Also, if some one can shed light on their understanding of the 8 types of cattle mentioned in above Ayat as being sent down.

                                    Thanks

                                      PEACE brother hawk,
                                      1 earth is populated and created as per laws of creation and population with perfect measures. STARTED from singularity.

                                      2 careful study of quran indicate first creation of animals is from the the womb of earth.
                                      2nd generation of animals got builtin factories of reproduction. then from the womb of mother.

                                      3 there is always a MOTHER everywhere, mother STAR, mother PLANET, mother GALAXY.
                                      everything we see and observe RELY their existence on their mothers.

                                      example mother star SUN is responsible for birth of earth and moon in planetary system. sun is the one who knows his responsibilites till kids are not self sufficent for their NEEDs.

                                      4 creator did it, he already knows how to solve the math of earth.

                                      5 we can only guess what was its atmosphere but it must be as per the requirements.

                                      6 see point 2.

                                      4.5 billion years of history and we are dealing it with 6 points rotfl
                                      brother hawk thats the beauty of TRUE creator he let human explore him and understand nature.
                                      he always give HINTS in shape of advancing ourselves so all this fossil discoveries and archealogy findings are here for us to find for ourselves lot of answers. let see how much more updates are waiting for us.

                                        ASK and SAID are synonyms dosent really change what i said/asked.

                                        Salam brother imran

                                        230

                                        They said ............... Root is

                                        4153

                                        They had asked ........... Root is

                                        Every world in Quran has wisdom behind it.

                                        malaika ask/said are u placing the one who spreading bloodshed whats the logic?

                                        Logic is that they were seeing what human race was doing at that time.

                                        coming back to the PEOPLE who know the language.

                                        and in 230 are both imperfect verbs .

                                          Brother my post was to rule out incest. Incest is haram.

                                          Was the first bashar/human created outside of the woman's womb?

                                          How did it survive without a mother?

                                          Who cared for it, raised and protected it?

                                          What was it's environment?

                                          Did it grow up, in a swamp?

                                          Silly questions I know but just wondering confused

                                          Does Quran tell us about first human being? I do not think so.

                                          Life started at unicellular level, asexual reproduction evolved into sexual reproduction, simple life evolved into complex one. This is what I have understood from Quran and science.

                                          Salam
