Outlines
👨👩👧👦 The Legacy of Adam: His Children and Sheath's Role
The first paragraph discusses the descendants of Adam, who had 40 children, arranged in 20 pairs. Adam saw thousands of his offspring spreading across different parts of the world. He constantly reminded them about the lessons he learned from his life, especially about how Satan misled him. Among Adam's children was Sheath, a messenger who was given 50 Psalms by Allah. Sheath guided his people just like his father. The passage also reflects on the fragility of wealth across generations and how it tends to deplete due to human nature and divine planning.
💀 Adam's Illness and Encounter with the Angel of Death
In the second paragraph, Adam falls ill and recalls the taste of fruits from Paradise, making him long for them again. He sends his children to retrieve something, but they meet angels carrying tools to dig a grave. Upon returning, Adam's wife recognizes the Angel of Death. Adam is calm, knowing his time has come. The Angel reminds him of the 40 years he gave to his son Daam, which Adam forgot. Before passing, Adam gathers his children, reminding them of the messages Allah will send through various prophets. His soul is then peacefully taken by the angels.
🌍 Adam's Death and the Return to Allah
The third paragraph reflects on Adam's contentment at the time of his death, as he knew he was returning to Paradise. This passage emphasizes the Muslim belief that death is a gift for believers as it marks the return to their Creator. Adam faced trials on Earth, but death brought him peace. The text contrasts earthly struggles with the eternal rewards awaiting in the afterlife. The Prophet Muhammad is quoted as saying that death is a blessing for believers. The angels then buried Adam in a dignified manner, following Islamic burial rites, teaching his children how to perform burials.

Adam and his wife
haam they had many children and as I
said they had 40 children 20 pairs and
the pair were not allowed to intermar
but those who were from a different pair
were allowed to marry the others from
another pair and so on and he saw some
of his grandchildren and his great
grandchildren and his progeny and his
offspring and it is reported that he'd
seen thousands of them thousands of his
children and they had gone various parts
of the globe and so many different
places they had gone
to and Adam Alam used to constantly
remind them and he used to tell them and
some of his children continued that
reminder one of them was a child known
as sheath she we call himam he was also
a messenger of Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala
in that he carried the message of his
father one narration says
that there were 104 Psalms that were
revealed by Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala
these parchments that were revealed by
Allah subhanahu wa'ta'ala from them 50
were revealed to sheat wasam so he was
also given guidance and he was told to
guide the people and as time passed it
became more difficult because they were
further away from Adam it's like for
example when your father has suffered to
make his money and you were there
watching him suffer and watching him go
through turbulence and turmoil it is
easier for you to appreciate that that
but when your children come and they've
only seen wealth for them to appreciate
it is very difficult this is why wealth
generally it's not an Islamic law but
people who have Muslims who have studied
have said it does not last for more than
three generations without actually
depleting totally three to four
generations after that it has to deplete
because Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala has a
plan and his plan is such that wealth
does not stay in the same hands for long
it will move and it will can it will go
on and on Allah abbar may Allah
subhanahu wa ta'ala grant us goodness
and
contentment So Adam masallah he'd seen
so many of his children and he was
grooming his children also to continue
the message he used to call them
regularly and tell them that this is
what you need to do and that is what you
need to do and so on and this is how
shatan they used to gather together and
he used to remind them how Shan led him
astray and how Shan was very jealous and
so on so there is something for us to
learn from this as well we need to
gather our children children and we need
to constantly remind them not only of
our beginnings but of the messenger of
the message of Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala
how many of us have sat with our
children and told them do you know this
is what Allah requires this is how we
should be dressing this is the benefit
of this this is the benefit of that this
is the downfall that one will taste if
they do this and if they do that and
look at this example and that example
spend time with your children it is the
Sunnah of the prophets all the prophets
May Allah's peace be upon
them then Allah subhanahu wa'ta'ala
makes mention of something very
interesting again where
Adam got sick he got ill he got ill at a
certain stage and look at Allah's plan
Allah made him wish for something Wish
For What certain fruits he had eaten in
Jenna he ate some fruits in Paradise he
still remembered the taste so he was
wishing for it making Dua to Allah
saying Ya Allah I'm wishing for these
fruits so Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala
instructed him that at a certain place
you will find something not that you
will find the fruits but at a certain
place you will find something but he was
unhealthy he was not healthy enough to
go there so he decided to send some of
his children he says go to that place
and you will find something for me there
so when they went there they found some
angels a group of
angels what did they have with them they
were dressed in white and they had some
tools with them there was a pick and a
shovel and tools to dig now these tools
were new to the children of Adam wasam
they
looked these angels told the children of
Adam we are angels and we want you to go
back to your father he is ill and his
time is
upbar he is ill and his time is up so
they walked with Adam with the children
of Adam Alam back to Adam Alam and as
they
entered as they
entered ha may peace be upon her she
recognized this Angel is the Angel of
Death the angel of
death so she quickly started going
behind Adam wasam and he says no no no
don't worry move away I was created
before you I was created before you he's
going to
go he was not worried that now I am I
going and so on he was reminded in fact
he told the angel of death when he saw
him he says but don't I have 40 more
years to go we made mention of this a
few days ago the angel says don't you
remember you gave it to
daam and he says no I don't remember I
don't remember and after he was reminded
he says no problem however he first
gathered his children look at this he
gathered his children on his deathbed
and he reminded them saying Allah will
send Messengers to you he will not leave
you alone he will send Messengers to you
and messages these Messengers will come
different languages different names
different dialects but their message
will all be one calling you to worship
one Allah the one who made you and to
stay away from the devil and Shan and
and to be careful that the biggest crime
anyone can commit is to associate a
partner with the
Creator and after he reminded his
children
the Angels took his soul away and he
passed
away and he passed away
happily he was happy to go why was he
happy to
go very interesting I think that's a
lesson when I was reading about it
really it brought tears to my eyes he
was happy to go because he knew he is
going back to that heaven that he came
from he knew he's going back to Allah
subhanahu wa taala and he was happy to
go because he had problems here on the
earth he had tests he had difficulties
he first hunted for his wife then he had
the problems with his children and so on
and now he had to taste death but that
death was getting him to Allah subhanahu
wa and from this there is a narration
Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala tells us
through the lips of Muhammad S.I
wasallam the gift of a True Believer is
death why you're going back to your
maker your creator there's no more
inflation there's no more robberies
there's no more power Cuts there's no
more you know credit and debt and people
following you and running behind you and
sickness and cough and what have you
everything ends it stops there is only
Justice and goodness and for you is what
you wish and what you want and what you
whatever you
desire I always give the example of a
child who works hard at school you work
very hard at school
for what in order to get a prize so now
how are you going to get the prize if
you don't want to attend the prize
giving abbar you got to go there and
then you will shake the hand and get
your prize if you don't go there how are
you going to get your prize so for us
we've been promised read Salah you get
this give you a zaka you do this dress
appropriately this will happen for you
do that this will happen where are we
going to get all these prizes you need
to go to the stage where is the stage
you need to die first then you get to
the stage Allah
Akbar simple to understand but still
when we die or someone dies we become
depressed and we start mourning to the
degree that we question what Allah's
decree was how can we do that it is
natural to miss someone it is natural to
shed tears of Mercy because you're going
to miss them but we never question the
decree of Allah whatever Allah does is
the best it is the best when Allah has
taken a person away whether it is in a
car crash or after sickness or suddenly
or whatever it is it is the best that
Allah could have done for that
particular person we need to know this
especially as M as Believers so we
should not depress ourselves if they
have gone we are going very very soon so
Adam wasam went when he went what
happened the Angels had come with the
tools they took the children of Adam
Alat wasam a little bit of a distance
and they dug a proper grave and they
washed the body of Adam Alam with water
they enshrouded him properly and they
led the Salah or the prayer the janaza
of Adam wasam one narration says that
jiel instructed sheath to lead the Salah
and another narration says the Angels
themselves LED that Salah only Allah
knows
but the Salah was done and he was buried
and once he was buried the Angels looked
at the children of Adam
and
says this is the way you shall do it
when anyone from amongst you passes away
so that is how we were taught to
enshroud and to leave a gap I was
speaking to someone a few moments ago in
fact a few days before Ramadan and we
were talking about how amazing it is
that the grave of a Muslim you have a
gap you have a you are enshrouded in a
shroud and then you are placed in in the
grave and the wooden pieces or the
bricks are not put on you but there is a
gap and then quite a big gap and then
there is the wooden pieces and on top of
that is the soil Subhan Allah do you
know one of the benefits of that is it
allows for the decomposer of that body
in the soil because of the presence of
oxygen in that
Hollow if there was no oxygen what
happens let me tell you what happens
look at the mass graves in the globe
when when the people are buried and the
the sand is straight onto them what
happens you find the bone even after a
thousand years you might find some of it
has not yet decomposed because it is all
there still the skulls are there
everything is there whereas if you bury
islamically the proper way by leaving
that Gap who knew that there would be
oxygen trapped in there which is needed
for that to decompose
allahar Allah abbar so now that it
decomposes completely you dig it back up
9 months later there is nothing
remaining
there the Hadith speaks about the last
small little portion at the bottom of
your spine the chicle the little cone
shaped bone part of it remains and that
is the seed of man from which you we
will grow as I me made mention of the
other day so this is how we are to be
buried where were we taught from we were
taught by the angels from Allah
subhanahu wa taala Amazing Story we ask
Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala to grant us a
deep understanding the question question
where was he buried it's a question some
narration say he was buried Phil hind
close to where he had descended whereas
other narrations say that he was buried
in mecah by the mount known as
jaal just outside where the Haram is now
he was buried somewhere there but Allah
knows best all we know is he was
definitely buried and I had spoken about
sheam being another na of Allah
subhanahu wa ta'ala inshallah we will
get to more of the stories of these men
Messengers the last question I have is
how many Messengers were there how many
messengers of Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala
we don't know the exact figure in the
Quran 25 are mentioned in the Quran
there are 25 names of The Messengers but
some narration of Muhammad sallallahu
alaihi wasallam makes mention of
different figures the largest of which
is
124,000 Imagine
124,000 Messengers we don't know really
whether that figure is correct but we
have a rough idea that there are so many
the Quran
says there are messengers oh Muhammad
sallallahu alaihi wasallam whom we have
told you about and we've related to you
their stories and some whom we have not
even told you about which means there
are so many only Allah knows the exact
number may Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala
grant us a lesson until we continue
