They weren't punished? I don't think it was a mistake they made, it was a direct disobeyment of Gods law, which is punishable, correct? | |

Gender: Way of Life: Muslim | According to Sheikh Faisal's lecture, they were in Heaven. Because: - once a person enters Paradise they are not thrown out - there is no haraam tree in paradise - the first person to enter paradise will be the Prophet Muhammad SAW etc. And Sheikh Faisal's lecture actually makes sense. Allaahu Aalim. "And from misery is that you love, and (the one) who you love, loves other than you, or that you want good for a person, and he wants to hurt you".

![]() A Hadees says he was >90 feet tall. Bukhari:55:543:- The Prophet said, "Allah created Adam, making him 60 cubits tall.(1cubit = 1.5 feet) 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 (salutation) 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. | |
