In this lesson, Shaykh Dr. Ahsan Hanif highlights the profound honour granted to prophet Adam عَلَیهِالسَّلام , the first human being, as narrated in Surah al-A'raf, verse 11-21. Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ commands the angels to prostrate to Adam, but Shaytan, filled with arrogance and envy, refused to obey Allah's command. He argued that his creation from fire made him superior to Adam عَلَیهِالسَّلام, who was created from clay. This episode delves into Shaytan's reasoning and his subsequent defiance, showcasing how his misguided analogy led to his downfall.
Furthermore, Shaykh Dr. Ahsan Hanif discusses Shaytan's deceitful tactics as he sought to lead Adam عَلَیهِالسَّلام and Hawwa astray in Paradise. He whispered lies, claiming that eating from the forbidden tree would grant them immortality and angelic status. This exploration highlights the themes of envy, arrogance, and deception, serving as a warning for us to be vigilant against Shaytan’s influences in our own lives.
