[Machine] Narrated by the Prophet ﷺ, Allah took a covenant from the back of Adam and extracted from his loins his offspring and dispersed them, face to face, before Him, like small particles, then He spoke to them and said, "Am I not your Lord?" They replied, "Indeed, we bear witness." [This] testifies lest you should say on the Day of Resurrection, "Verily, we have been unaware of this." Or lest you should say, "It was only our fathers aforetime who took others as partners in worship along with Allah, and we were (merely their) descendants after them; will You then destroy us because of the deeds of men who practised Al-Batil (i.e. polytheism and committing crimes and sins, invoking and worshipping others besides Allah)?"
عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ أَخَذَ اللَّهُ الْمِيثَاقَ مِنْ ظَهْرِ آدَمَ فَأَخْرَجَ مِنْ صُلْبِهِ ذُرِّيَّةً ذَرَاهَا فَنَثَرَهُمْ نَثْرًا بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ كَالذَّرِّ ثُمَّ كَلَّمَهُمْ فَقَالَ أَلَسْتُ بِرَبِّكُمْ؟ قَالُوا بَلَى شَهِدْنَا أَنْ تَقُولُوا يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ إِنَّا كُنَّا عَنْ هَذَا غَافِلِينَ أَوْ تَقُولُوا إِنَّمَا أَشْرَكَ آبَاؤُنَا مِنْ قَبْلُ وَكُنَّا ذُرِّيَّةً مِنْ بَعْدِهِمْ أَفَتُهْلِكُنَا بِمَا فَعَلَ الْمُبْطِلُونَ «»
