Episode 6: A Message to the Children of Adam

Audio is being processed — you can listen online for now.
After relating the story of Adam, Allah speaks directly to all his descendants — that is, to all of us. "O children of Adam! We have provided for you clothing to cover your nakedness and as adornment. But the clothing of God-consciousness (taqwa) — that is best. These are among the signs of Allah, that they may remember" (7:26). Allah then warned, "O children of Adam! Do not let Satan deceive you as he drove your parents (Adam and Hawwa/Eve) out of the Garden, stripping them of their clothing to show them their nakedness" (7:27). The warning closes with a stirring line: "Indeed, he (Satan) and his tribe see you from where you do not see them. Indeed, We have made the devils allies of those who do not believe" (7:27). Reflection: the story of Adam is not merely a tale of the past but a mirror for us. The same enemy who caused Adam to slip is still at work, and the finest garment of a human being is not cloth but consciousness of Allah.
