Sahih al-Bukhari 7230 (Book 97, Hadith 141)
‘Let us look for someone to intercede for us with our Lord so that He may relieve us from this place of
ours.’ So they will go to Adam and say, ‘You are Adam, the father of mankind, and Allah created you
with His Own Hands and ordered the Angels to prostrate before you, and He taught you the names of
all things; so please intercede for us with our Lord so that He may relieve us.’ Adam will say, to them,
‘I am not fit for that,’ and then he will mention to them his mistake which he has committed.’ “
“ يُجْمَعُ الْمُؤْمِنُونَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ فَيَقُولُونَ لَوِ اسْتَشْفَعْنَا إِلَى رَبِّنَا، فَيُرِيحُنَا مِنْ مَكَانِنَا هَذَا. فَيَأْتُونَ آدَمَ فَيَقُولُونَ لَهُ أَنْتَ آدَمُ أَبُو الْبَشَرِ خَلَقَكَ اللَّهُ بِيَدِهِ وَأَسْجَدَ لَكَ الْمَلاَئِكَةَ وَعَلَّمَكَ أَسْمَاءَ كُلِّ شَىْءٍ، فَاشْفَعْ لَنَا إِلَى رَبِّنَا حَتَّى يُرِيحَنَا. فَيَقُولُ لَهُمْ لَسْتُ هُنَاكُمْ. فَيَذْكُرُ لَهُمْ خَطِيئَتَهُ الَّتِي أَصَابَ ”.
