Is it true that Adam (peace be upon him) camedown in India and that
Hawwa' came down in Jeddah?.
Praise be to Allaah.
What is proven definitively in the Holy Qur'aan is that Adam and
Hawwa' (peace be upon them) came down from Paradise to earth after
they ate from the tree.
Allah says (interpretation of the meaning):
"Then the Shaytaan (Satan) made them slip therefrom (the Paradise),
and got them out from that in which they were. We said: 'Get you down,
all, with enmity between yourselves. On earth will be a dwelling place
for you and an enjoyment fora time'"
[al-Baqarah 2:36].
With regard to the place where they came down on earth, the Qur'aan
doesnot say anything about it, and there is no saheeh, marfoo' hadeeth
in the Sunnah of the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon
him) which explains that, although there are some da'eef (weak)
hadeeths, such as the hadeeth that says: "Adam came down in India and
felt lonely…". This was narrated by Ibn 'Asaakir in Tareekh Dimashq
(7/437) and classed as da'eef by Shaykh al-Albaani in al-Silsilah
al-Da'eefah, no. 403. There are also other hadeeths which speak of
this matter, but their isnaads are very weak.
The only saheeh reports about this matter are the words of some of the
salaf, most of which are taken from the knowledge of the people of the
Book which were transmitted during their time. Such reports cannot be
relied upon or trusted, and it is not permissible to believe in what
they mention of things concerning which our religion is silent. Rather
they may be narrated for the purpose of story-telling only.
Despite that, the scholarlyopinions concerning this matter differ.
Some of them said: Adam came down in India and Hawwa' came down in Jeddah.
Some of them said that they both came down in India.
Some of them said that Adam came down in a land between Makkah
andal-Taa'if called Dahna.
Some of them said that Adam came down on al-Safa and Hawwa' came down
on al-Marwah.
Al-Haafiz Ibn Katheer (may Allah have mercy onhim) said:
Al-Saddi said: Allah said (interpretation of the meaning): "Get you
down,all" [al-Baqarah 2:36]. So they came down; Adam came down in
India and the Black Stone and a handful of leaves from Paradise came
down withhim, and he scattered them in India, and a perfume tree grew,
whichis the origin of what comes from India of perfume from the
handfulof leaves that Adam brought down. Adam onlytook them because of
his sorrow at leaving Paradise when he was expelled from it.
'Imraan ibn 'Uyaynah said,(narrating) from 'Ata' ibn al-Saa'ib, from
Sa'eed ibn Jubayr, from Ibn 'Abbaas, who said: Adam came down from
Paradise in Dahna, in the land of India.
Ibn Abi Haatim said: Abu Zar'ah told us: Uthmaan ibn Abi Shaybah told
us: Jareer told us: from 'Ata', from Sa'eed, from Ibn 'Abbaas who
said: Adam (peace be upon him) camedown in a land called Dahna,
between Makkah and al-Taa'if.
It was narrated that al-Hasan al-Basri said: Adam came down in
Indiaand Hawwa' in Jeddah, and Iblees in Dastumeesaan a few miles from
Basrah, and the serpent came down inAsbahaan. This was narrated by Ibn
Abi Haatim.
Ibn Abi Haatim said: Muhamamd ibn 'Ammaar ibn al-Haarith told us:
Muhammad ibn Sa'eed ibnSaabiq told us: 'Amr ibn Abi Qays told us, from
Ibn 'Adiyy, from Ibn 'Umar, who said: Adam came down on al-Safa and
Hawwa' on al-Marwah. End quote.

But all of these are words for which there is no evidence.
And Allah knows best.

*- WHAT ISLAM SAYS -*
-
Islam is a religion of Mercy, Peace and Blessing. Its teachings emphasize kind hear tedness, help, sympathy, forgiveness, sacrifice, love and care.Qur’an, the Shari’ah and the life of our beloved Prophet (SAW) mirrors this attribute, and it should be reflected in the conduct of a Momin.Islam appreciates those who are kind to their fellow being,and dislikes them who are hard hearted, curt, and hypocrite.Recall that historical moment, when Prophet (SAW) entered Makkah as a conqueror. There was before him a multitude of surrendered enemies, former oppressors and persecutors, who had evicted the Muslims from their homes, deprived them of their belongings, humiliated and intimidated Prophet (SAW) hatched schemes for his murder and tortured and killed his companions. But Prophet (SAW) displayed his usual magnanimity, generosity, and kind heartedness by forgiving all of them and declaring general amnesty...Subhanallah. May Allah help us tailor our life according to the teachings of Islam. (Aameen)./-
