The Messenger of Allah (saw) said; when Allah created Adam, He wiped Adam’s back and every person that He will create from him until the Day of Resurrection fell out from his back.

Allah placed a glimmering light between the eyes of each of them. Allah showed them to Adam and he asked, “O Lord! Who are they? Allah said, these are your children

Adam saw a man from among them whose light he liked. He asked, ” O Lord! Who is this man?
Allah said, this is a man from the latter generations of your children His name is Dawud.

Adam said, “O Lord! How many years would he live? Allah said sixty years. Adam said, ” O Lord! I have forfeited forty years from my life for him.

When Adam’s life came to an end, the angel of death came to Adam to take his soul. Adam said, ” I still have forty years from my life term, don’t I?

The angel said, ‘ have you not given it to your son Dawud? So Adam denied that and his children followed suit ( denying Allah’s covenant).

Adam forgot and his children forgot. Adam made mistake and his children made mistakes.
