Prophet Adam (AS) was the first human to be created. After Allah (SWT) had created the earth, the paradise, the sun, and the moon, He created the angels and the jinn. Finally, He created Prophet Adam (AS) and Bibi Hawwâ (AS). When Allah (SWT) informed the angels that He was going to create a new creature who would live on earth, they were surprised and said: "O Allah, why are You creating a new creature when we already worship You fully and constantly recite Your Names? These creatures will fight amongst themselves for earthly possessions and will kill each other." The angels said this because they had seen the jinn behave in this way on earth. However, some jinn were truly pious, and some, like Azâzîl (Iblis), used to worship Allah (SWT) alongside the angels.
