HAZRAT ADAM AND HIS WIFE IN PARADISE
 

new being was a very beautiful girl, Hazrat Eve.
....Hazrat Adam was immediately attracted to Hazrat Eve. He was not bored anymore, and he felt very positive about life.

....HAZRAT ADAM AND HIS WIFE IN PARADISE
....Allah Almighty put Hazrat Adam and his wife into Paradise before they became accustomed to the conditions on the Earth and tasted the blessings there, saying to them:
...."O Adam! Dwell you and your wife in the garden; so eat from where you desire, but do not go near this tree, for then you will be of the unjust." (Araf, 19)
....Allah Almighty stated that they should dwell in Paradise, go wherever they wanted, and eat from whatever they desired, yet not to approach the forbidden tree. And also He stated that if they were to approach this tree they would be of the unjust.
....Hazrat Adam and Hazrat Eve stayed in Paradise for a thousand years of this world. During this period, they never aged or became ill. They remained energetic and young, just as they had been created.
....They walked around, ate, drank, and experienced the bounties of Paradise. They were fully satisfied and very happy.
....However, they had one worry: Would they die? Would it not be wonderful if there was no death and they were to live forever!
....Iblis, waiting to take his revenge, was delighted to see

their eagerness to live and planned to take advantage of it.
....Iblis had only one chance: to make them approach the forbidden tree.
....Allah Almighty says:
...."Then began Satan to whisper suggestions to them, bringing openly before their minds all their shame that was hidden from them (before): he said: "Your Lord only forbade you this tree, lest ye should become angels or such beings that live for ever." (Araf, 20)
....Seizing his opportunity, Iblis told Adam and Eve that he had lived in Paradise for thousands of years, that he had become the leader of the angels, and therefore he knew the secrets of Paradise. Indicating the forbidden tree, he said: "Who eats the fruit of this tree will become immortal and live in Paradise forever."
.... Eve, a young, energetic, and healthy woman, was tempted by what Iblis had said. When Adam hesitated, Iblis tried another approach:
...."And he swore to them both: Most surely I am a sincere adviser to you." (Araf, 21)
....Hazrat Adam thought that no being could swear false oaths and he believed in Iblis's oath. He walked up to the forbidden tree along with Hazrat Eve, who waited impatiently for him to make a decision.
....Hazrat Eve, exultant with the dream of becoming immortal and living in Paradise forever, picked the fruit of the forbidden tree, first taking a bite herself and then making Hazrat Adam eat some.
