| Assalamu alkum One question I have always pondered on is if we all originated from Adam and Hawaa then why is it that so many of us look so different in the world? Why are some people white while others black. Why do some cultures have different eye shapes and certain coloured hair? Aren't human beings so different and beautiful ma'shAllah. Can any scientists shed light on this? wassalam. |

| salam, This is fom Ibn Kathir's Stories of the Prophets: Abu Musa Al-Sha'ara'i narrated that the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) said: "Allah created Adam from a handful of dust taken from the different lands, do the children of Adam have been created according to the composition of the land. Therefore from mankind we have white, red, black and yellow ones; we have good and evil, ease and sorrow and what comes in betwen them." Ibn Masud and other companions of the Prophet (pbuh) said that Allah the Almighty sent Gabriel onto the earth to get Him clay therefrom. The earth said:"I seek refuge in Allah from your decreasing my quantity or disfiguring me." So Gabriel returned and did not take anything. And he said:"My Lord , the land sought refuge in You, and it was granted." So Allah sent Michael for the same purpose, and the land sought refuge in Allah and it was granted. So he went back and said to Allah what Gabriel had said before. Then Allah sent the Angel of Death, and the land sought refuge in Allah. The angel said:" I also seek refuge with Allah from returning without carrying out His command." So he took clay from the face of the earth and mixed it. He did not take it from one paricular place, but rather he took white, red, and black clay (from different places). The Angel of Death ascended with it, and He (Allah) soaked the clay till it became sticky. Then Allah said to the Angels: "Truly, I am going to create man from clay. So when I have fashioned him and breathed into him (his) soul created by me, then you fall down prostrate to him." |
