ALLAH SENT MESSENGERS AND BOOKS
it is almost impossible for them to accept Allah's existence and to realise
that He creates everything. Although the number of such people is
diminishing steadily, there are still some who strive to disseminate their
flawed views through periodicals, books and newspapers, and also in
schools. To make people believe in their flawed views, they insist on their
arguments and assert that they have scientific validity. However, each
piece of research done and evidence provided by intelligent scientists
prove that the ape did not evolve into man.
Adam, the first man, whom Allah specially created, was in all ways
the same as contemporary man; He was in no way different. These are the
facts Allah communicates to us in the Qur'an. There is yet another very
important issue Allah informs us about Adam: The story of Adam and
Satan, the enemy of mankind.
Man's Greatest Enemy: Satan
You may already know about Satan, but do you know that he also
knows you very well and resorts to every method to tempt you? Do you
know that the actual purpose of Satan, who pretends to be your friend, is
to deceive you? Let's start from the very beginning and remind ourselves
why Satan is our enemy. For this purpose, we will turn to the story about
Adam and Satan in the Qur'an.
