@Hadithoftheday Qabil - Son of Adam A.S
Narrated Abdullah ibn Mas'ud R.A:
Allah's Messenger ﷺ said, "Whenever a person is murdered unjustly, there is a share from the burden of the crime on the first son of Adam for he was the first to start the tradition of murdering." - (Sahih Bukhari 3335)

@Hadithoftheday Qabeel was the son of Adam A.S and brother of Habeel.
Qabeel Killed Habeel out of jealousy and personal desire.
Every time, a murder is committed, Qabeel will also have to bear the sin as well as Qabeel was the first person on earth to have killed a human being.

@Hadithoftheday This story of two sons of Adam A.S is related in Surah Ma'idah.
Allah says in Qur'an:
And recite to them the story of Adam’s two sons in truth, when they presented an offering and it was accepted from one of them but was not accepted from the other.” (5:27)
Allah says in Qur'an:
And recite to them the story of Adam’s two sons in truth, when they presented an offering and it was accepted from one of them but was not accepted from the other.” (5:27)
@Hadithoftheday Hawwa A.S bore sets of twins, & in each birth there was a male & a female child.
In those times, they were commanded that each son would marry the sister of his brother with whom she was born, in other words, no one was allowed to get married with his sister with whom he was born
In those times, they were commanded that each son would marry the sister of his brother with whom she was born, in other words, no one was allowed to get married with his sister with whom he was born
@Hadithoftheday The time arrived when the two young men ( Habeel and Qabeel) desired life partners. This was part of Allah's plan for mankind, to multiply and form nations with different cultures and colours. +
@Hadithoftheday Adam A.S instructed his children according to Allah's command, that is to marry each other’s twin, but Qabil was displeased with the partner chosen for him, for Habil’s twin sister was not as beautiful as his own. Qabil rebelled against Allah’s command.
@Hadithoftheday The brothers then offered a sacrifice to Allah.
The purpose of the sacrifice was to determine which of the two brothers had more right to Qabil’s sister. Habil sacrificed a plump young sheep, while Qabil offered a bundle of the worst crops he had grown.

@Hadithoftheday Fire then came down from Heaven, consuming Habil’s offering leaving Qabil’s according to Allah’s words,
They both offered a sacrifice to Allah, and it was accepted from one of them but was not accepted from the other. (Qur’an 5:27)
They both offered a sacrifice to Allah, and it was accepted from one of them but was not accepted from the other. (Qur’an 5:27)
@Hadithoftheday Habil replied, as mentioned in Qur'an:
Indeed, Allah only accepts from the righteous [who fear Him]. If you should raise your hand against me to kill me - I shall not raise my hand against you to kill you. Indeed, I fear Allah, Lord of the worlds. (Qur’an 5:27-28)
Indeed, Allah only accepts from the righteous [who fear Him]. If you should raise your hand against me to kill me - I shall not raise my hand against you to kill you. Indeed, I fear Allah, Lord of the worlds. (Qur’an 5:27-28)
@Hadithoftheday Habil continued, reminding Qabil that if he killed him wrongfully, he would assume the burden of all of Habil’s sins,
Indeed I want you to obtain [thereby] my sin and your sin so you will be among the companions of the Fire. And that is the recompense of wrongdoers.(Qur’an 5:29)
Indeed I want you to obtain [thereby] my sin and your sin so you will be among the companions of the Fire. And that is the recompense of wrongdoers.(Qur’an 5:29)
@Hadithoftheday Qabil pursued while Habil trying to escape from him. It is said that Qabil came upon Habil while he was asleep.
Allah says in Qur'an:
And his soul permitted to him the murder of his brother, so he killed him and became among the losers. (Qur’an 5:30)
Allah says in Qur'an:
And his soul permitted to him the murder of his brother, so he killed him and became among the losers. (Qur’an 5:30)
@Hadithoftheday Allah, who had taken the pure soul of Habeel, showed mercy to his body as well. He taught the criminal,& through him all mankind, the proper way to dispose of a body after death. +
@Hadithoftheday Allah says in Qur'an:
“Then Allah sent a crow searching [i.e., scratching] in the ground to show him how to hide the disgrace of his brother (Qur'an 5:31).
“Then Allah sent a crow searching [i.e., scratching] in the ground to show him how to hide the disgrace of his brother (Qur'an 5:31).
@Hadithoftheday The crow sent by Allah alighted nearby. It began to scratch the ground until a hollow appeared, and Qābeel perceived that this was the way to conceal his brother’s body.
“He said, ‘O woe to me! Have I failed [even] to be like this crow and hide the disgrace of my brother? (5:31)
“He said, ‘O woe to me! Have I failed [even] to be like this crow and hide the disgrace of my brother? (5:31)
@Hadithoftheday The magnitude of Qabeel’s crime is illustrated by the following hadith: “No soul is killed unjustly but the first son of Adam bears a part of that sin. Because he was the first to initiate this tradition of killing.” (Bukhari). +
@Hadithoftheday This hadith does not imply that the murderer is exonerated from his crime. Rather, whenever a murder is committed, Qabeel will also bear the sin of that murder, being the originator of such action.
@Hadithoftheday Lessons:
1. The seed of envy quickly becomes a tree of enmity. Sonit must be crushed.
2. A peaceful person never attacks first but if he is attacked unjustly, he must defend himself vehemently.
3. When one kills someone unjustly, it is as if he killed the whole humanity
