3. EXTENSIVE KNOWLEDGE OF SAYYIDUNA ADAM
‘Allamah Shaykh Isma’eel Haqqi the Qutb of his times, has mentioned details of the extensive knowledge of Sayyiduna Aadam in his highly renowned Tafseer of the Holy Quran – Ruh-ul-Bayan which was imparted to him by Allah within a moment though Divine revelation and by virtue of which Sayyiduna Aadam became so dignified that the angels prostrated him in acknowledgement of his greatness.
According to that Tafseer: Allah taught Sayyiduna Aadam the names of all things in all languages, names of all angels and the names of the complete progeny of Sayyiduna Aadam names of all animals, names of all plants and names of all non-living things, names of the industries of all the products, names of all the cities and towns, names of all birds and trees and all the beings that will be born until the Day of Judgement, names of all animates and beings, names of all foods and drinks, names of all bounties of the Paradise, names of all objects and even the names of a bowl and a cup. It is mentioned in Hadees that Allah taught him seven hundred thousand languages.
The Holy Quran has mentioned the abovementioned details of knowledge within a single and short verse in a miraculously concise manner. Therefore, Allah says:
And Allah taught Aadam the names of all things.
Moral:
Having learnt the extensiveness of knowledge of Sayyiduna Aadam let’s try to imagine the comprehensiveness of the knowledge of Prophet Muhammad, who is not only the chief of Sayyiduna Aadam and all Prophets but also the chief deputy of Allah. I say, by Allah, the knowledge of Sayyiduna Aadam doesn’t even hold as much significance as compared to the knowledge of Prophet Muhammad as a drop of water holds in comparison to an ocean or a dust particle holds in front of the entire earth. How can the knowledge of Aadam be comparable with that of Prophet Muhammad the Chief of all!
