Hadith 78

he planets, and Made the earths to be upon the back of a fish, it was a heavy burden, so it was restless. He-azwj Affirmed it with the mountains. When He-azwj had Completed the creation of what is in the skies, and on that day the earth was empty, there wasn’t anyone in it, He-azwj Said to the Angels: And when your Lord said to the Angels: I am going to Make a Caliph in the earth. They said: Are You going to Make in it one who will make mischief therein and shed the blood, and we Glorify with Your Praise and we extol Your Holiness? He said: I Know what you do not know [2: 30]. So Allah-azwj Dispatched Jibraeel-as. He-as grabbed a handful from the surface of the earth. He‑azwj Kneaded it with the sweet and salty water and Installed the natures in it before He‑azwj Blew the Spirit into it. He Created him (Adam-as) from the surface (Adeym) of the earth, so for that he-as is named as ‘Adam’. When He-azwj had Kneaded with the water, it crusted. He-azwj Dropped it in the mountain like the large mountain, and on that day Iblees-as was a keeper over the fifth sky. He-la entered into a nostril of Adam-as then came out from his-as behind. Then He-la struck upon his-as belly by his-la hand and said, ‘For which matter have you-as been created? If you-as are Made to be above me-la, I-la will not obey you-as, but if you-as are made to be lower than me-la, I-la will not assist you-as! ’
He-as remained in the Paradise for a thousand years what is between His-azwj creation up to the Spirit was Blown into him-as. He-azwj Created him-as from water and clay, and light and darkness, and wind, and a Noor from the Noor of Allah-azwj. As for the light, it inherited him-as the Eman; and as for the darkness, it inherited him-as the Kufr and the straying; and as for the clay, it inherited him-as the trembling, and the weakness, and the palpitations during the pouring of water. It emitted with him upon four natures, upon the blood, and the phlegm, and the bitterness, and the wind. That is His-azwj Word, Blessed and Exalted: Or does not the human being remember that We Created him before, and he was nothing? [19: 67]’. He (Al-Hassan-asws) said: ‘Ka’ab said, ‘O Umar! By Allah-azwj, do you know like the knowledge of Amir Al-Momineen Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws? ’ He said, ‘No’. Ka’ab said, ‘Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws is a successor-asws of the Prophets-as, and Muhammad-saww is last of the Prophets-as, and Ali-asws is last of the successors-as, and there is no soul upon the earth today except and Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws is more knowledgeable than him. By Allah‑azwj! He-asws has not mentioned anything from the creation of the human beings, and the Jinn, and the sky, and the earth, and the Angels except and I have read it in the Torah just as he-asws has read’. He (Al-Hassan-asws) said: ‘I-asws had not seen Umar as angry at all like his anger on that day’’. [85]
