Narrated Anas:
The Prophet said, “Allah will say to that person of the (Hell) Fire who will receive the least punish –
ment, ‘If you had everything on the earth, would you give it as a ransom to free yourself (i.e. save
yourself from this Fire)?’ He will say, ‘Yes.’ Then Allah will say, ‘While you were in the backbone of
Adam, I asked you much less than this, i.e. not to worship others besides Me, but you insisted on
worshipping others besides me.’ “
Volume 4, Book 55, Number 552:
Narrated Abdullah:
Allah’s Apostle said, “Whenever a person is murdered unjustly, there is a share from the burden of
the crime on the first son of Adam for he was the first to start the tradition of murdering.”
Volume 4, Book 55, Number 543:
Narrated Abu Huraira:
The Prophet said, “Allah created Adam, making him 60 cubits tall. When He created him, He said
to him, “Go and greet that group of angels, and listen to their reply, for it will be your greeting (sa –
lutation) and the greeting (salutations of your offspring.” So, Adam said (to the angels), As-Salamu
Alaikum (i.e. Peace be upon you). The angels said, “As-salamu Alaika wa Rahmatu-l-lahi” (i.e. Peace
and Allah’s Mercy be upon you). Thus the angels added to Adam’s salutation the expression, ‘Wa
Rahmatu-l-lahi,’ Any person who will enter Paradise will resemble Adam (in appearance and
figure). People have been decreasing in stature since Adam’s creation.
Volume 4, Book 55, Number 544:
Narrated Abu Huraira:
Allah’s Apostle said, “The first group of people who will enter Paradise, will be glittering like the
full moon and those who will follow them, will glitter like the most brilliant star in the sky. They will
not urinate, relieve nature, spit, or have any nasal secretions. Their combs will be of gold, and their
sweat will smell like musk. The aloes-wood will be used in their centers. Their wives will be houris.
All of them will look alike and will resemble their father Adam (in statute), sixty cubits tall.”
