Islam states that Adam was the first Prophet. Does it also stick to the idea that humanity began with Adam?

Question

According to Islam, are Adam and Eve the first humans, created directly by God? Or is Adam only the first prophet among humans, with the purpose of "inventing" religion for the purpose of worshipping God?

Answer 1

Allah firstly created Adam as the first human in the universe and the created Eve from his ribs as the first women in the universe
but Adam was the first human being as well as the first man in the universe

Answer 2

There is not one shred of evidence that Adam & Eve ever existed, and religion was never invented for the purpose of worshipping God, if any of it had the slightest bit of truth to it then where in the hell did neanderthal man come from, the shear insanity that people think Adam & Eve were the first humans is absolutly incomprehensible, It may be the greatest story ever written, but it is also the greatest scam ever written regarding the first humans, God must truly laugh at this insanity.

Answer 3

Personally, I don't give a rip what Islam says about anything, but, Adam and Eve were the first humans, created by God. Adam was not a prophet, there are no prophetic utterances recording by him. Adam did not "invent" worship, it was placed in our hearts by God. All humans naturally worship something, either themselves, idols, a false god, or the one true God of the Bible.

Answer 4

The only reason why Adam is called a prophet even though Adam cannot prophesy is to similarly accomodate muhammad(pibuh) to be classified as a prophet.

Any man in his right senses will know that a person who cannot perform magic is NOT a magician.

Likewise, muhammad admitted he was only a man in the Q'uran, unable to perform miracles or prophesy. The only people who are prophets are people like Moses, Elijah, Elisha etc.

Answer 5

yes they are the first humans

Answer 6

Yes.
