وَقَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ: حَدَّثَنَا شَرِيكٌ، عَنْ أَبِي هَارُونَ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ ؓ قَالَ:
تَحَاجَّ آدَمُ وَمُوسَى، عَلَيْهِمَا السَّلَامُ، فَقَالَ مُوسَى لِآدَمَ: أَنْتَ الَّذِي خَلَقَكَ اللهُ بِيَدِهِ، وَنَفَخَ فِيكَ مِنْ رُوحِهِ، وَأَسْكَنَكَ جَنَّتَهُ، فَأَهْلَكْتَنَا، وَأَغْوَيْتَنَا، وَذَكَرَ مَا شَاءَ اللهُ مِنْ هَذَا، فَقَالَ لَهُ آدَمُ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ: أَنْتَ الَّذِي اصْطَفَاكَ اللهُ بِكَلِمَاتِهِ، وَرِسَالَاتِهِ، وَتَلُومُنِي عَلَى أَمْرٍ قَدْ قَدَّرَهُ اللهُ عَلَيَّ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَخْلُقَ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضَ ؟ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: فَحَجَّ آدَمُ مُوسَى، فَحَجَّ آدَمُ مُوسَى

✧ Adam and Moses (peace be upon them) argued. Moses said to Adam: You are the one whom Allah created with His own hand, breathed into you from His spirit, and caused you to dwell in His Paradise, then you destroyed us and led us astray. He mentioned as much as Allah willed of this. Adam ﷺ said to him: You are the one whom Allah chose with His words and His messages, yet you blame me for a matter Allah had decreed for me before He created the heavens and the earth? The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: So Adam defeated Moses in argument, so Adam defeated Moses in argument.
