Then Allah created Eve and in Arabic she�s called Hau�wa� but she wasn�t created at once. Adam lived in Janna for a while before that and he felt so lonely and bored and one day while he was asleep Allah took one of his ribs from the left side and created Eve from it and covered the bone with flesh.

Allah said:
O mankind! reverence your Guardian-Lord, who created you from a single Person, created, of like nature, his mate, and from them twain scattered (like seeds) countless men and women; fear Allah, through Whom ye demand your mutual (rights), and (reverence) the wombs (that bore you): for Allah ever watches over you. 4:1

When Adam woke up he found her sitting by him so he asked her? Who are you? She said a woman. He asked why were you born? She replied for you to dwell with me.

When the Angels saw this new creature they asked Adam about it. He said Hau�wa �Eve�. They asked and why called Hau�wa? He said because she was created from something Hayee �alive�.

In a Hadeeth by the Prophet pbuh he said, �Whoever believes in Allah and his messenger let him speak well or shut up. Be kind to women because a woman was created from a rib and the top part of the rib is bent. If you decided to straighten it you would break it and if you left it as is it will still be twisted.� This means that there is unevenness in women�s natures and that is they use more passion than mind. So if you wanted to straighten her you won�t be able and if you left her as she is you have to be tolerant to this passion she carries.

It came in another Hadeeth that Sara was the most beautiful woman in the world after Eve �peace be upon her�.

Then Iblees (satan) started his seduction and whispering in Jannah (Paradise) after Adam and Eve inhibited it.
Allah said in the Quran:
We said: "O Adam! Dwell thou and thy wife in the Garden; and eat of the bountiful things therein as (where and when) ye will; but approach not this tree, or ye run into harm and transgression."

And Allah warned Adam that satan is a foe for him and his wife. It is worth saying that Allah gave Adam clothes to wear and he was never naked neither on earth nor in heaven.

Allah said in the Quran:
O ye Children of Adam! We have bestowed raiment upon you to cover your shame, as well as to be an adornment to you. But the raiment of righteousness, that is the best. Such are among the signs of Allah, that they may receive admonition!

So from the beginning of creation there was no nudity, complete blessing and an honored life in absolute beauty. At that time whispers of the devil started. Allah ordered Adam in the Quran not to eat from the tree, only one tree among the huge numbers of trees in Heaven.

In addition to that Allah allowed Iblees to enter Jennah to whisper and try to seduce Adam and Eve.

Allah said in the Quran:
Then began Satan to whisper suggestions to them, in order to reveal to them their shame that was hidden from them (before):
he said: "Your Lord only forbade you this tree, lest ye should become angels or such beings as live forever."

And he started seducing them by telling them that this tree is the tree of immortality and sovereignty and that if they ate from it they would become angels.

But Satan whispered evil to him: he said, "O Adam! shall I lead thee to the Tree of Eternity and to a kingdom that never decays?"
At that time Adam and Eve�s private places were covered from them but when they ate from the tree their clothes fell down and their private places appeared. Satan wanted to remove their clothes and show them their nudity and disobey Allah almighty.

Allah said:
So by deceit he brought about their fall:
Allah said:
when they tasted of the tree, their shame became manifest to them,

They became naked and both of them felt shame from each other and started to cover them selves with tree leaves.
Allah said:
And they began to sew together the leaves of the Garden over their bodies.

Then Adam realized the big sin he committed and started to run away. At that time Allah called upon him Oh Adam are you running away from me? He replied oh no my lord I�m not running away from you I�m just ashamed from what I have done and didn�t want you to see me in this condition a sinner and naked.

The first to eat from the apple was Eve and she was the one who urged Adam to eat from it.
In a Hadeeth the Prophet pbuh said, �If it wasn�t for Eve, no woman would have betrayed her husband.�

Allah called upon them:
And their Lord called unto them: "Did I not forbid you that tree, and tell you that Satan was an avowed enemy unto you?"
But the difference between them and satan is that despite their sin they didn�t insist on it and said:
They said: "Our Lord! we have wronged our own souls: if Thou forgive us not and bestow not upon us Thy Mercy, we shall certainly be lost."

But Allah almighty got very angry and He issued His great order:
(Allah) said: "Get ye down, with enmity between yourselves. On earth will be your dwelling-place and your means of livelihood for a time."

He said: "Therein shall ye live, and therein shall ye die; but from it shall ye be taken out (at last)."

We had already, beforehand, taken the covenant of Adam, but he forgot: and We found on his part no firm resolve.

And behold, We said to the angels: "Bow down to Adam:" and they bowed down: not so Iblis: he refused and was haughty: he was of those who reject Faith.

So Allah punished them then He forgave them.

We said: "Get ye down all from here: and if, as is sure, there comes to you guidance from Me, whosoever follows My guidance, on them shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve.

"But whosoever turns away from My Message, verily for him is a life narrowed down, and We shall raise him up blind on the Day of Judgment."

So Adam was sent down to earth and their he received words from Allah and he said them then Allah repented upon him. Those words were mentioned in the Quran:
They said: "Our Lord! we have wronged our own souls: if Thou forgive us not and bestow not upon us Thy Mercy, we shall certainly be lost."

This is the Duaa of the sinner and with Adam came down Eve and satan.

Ibn Abbas said that Adam was sent down in India while Eve was sent down to Jeddah so Adam started looking for her until they met and knew each other in Arafat (this means the place of meeting) mountain in Mecca.

Then Allah spread their offspring from humans; Eve gave birth twenty times each time with a twin a male and a female.

The first two were Kabeel �Cane� and his sister Kolaym and the last two were Abdul Mugheeth and his sister Um al Mugheeth.

Adam was among them and they all were monotheists and believed in one God. Allah said:
Mankind was one single nation, and Allah sent Messengers with glad tidings and warnings; and with them He sent the Book in truth, to judge between people in matters wherein they differed; but the People of the Book, after the Clear Signs came to them, did not differ among themselves, except through selfish contumacy. Allah by His Grace guided the Believers to the Truth, concerning that wherein they differed. For Allah guides whom He will to a path that is straight.

And in a Hadeeth by the Prophet pbuh on of the �Abu Zar� asked the Prophet of the first of the Prophets? He replied, �Adam.� Abu Zar asked, a Prophet and a messenger? The Prophet pbuh said, �Yes, a Prophet and a messenger. Allah made him with His own hands then breathed into him from His spirit and then talked to him directly face to face.�

In a Hadeeth by the Prophet, �When Allah sent Adam down to earth He taught him the way of making everything.� The basic manufacturing of things like clothes, fire and iron�etc. And he came to earth clothed, and knowledgeable and this is contrary to what is taught to people today that Man was naked, ignorant and primitive. As for those primitive tribes they are a group who became separated from the rest of the people of earth and led a wild life�

Then people began to increase and multiply and after that came the first sin on earth and that is Habeel �Abel� killing of Kabeel �Cane�.
