وَقَالَ مُسَدَّدٌ: وَحَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ، عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ حَسَّانَ، حَدَّثَنِي قَيْسُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ، عَنْ عَطَاءٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ؓ قَالَ:
إِنَّهُ سُئِلَ عَنِ السَّاعَةِ الَّتِي فِي يَوْمِ الْجُمُعَةِ، فَقَالَ: اللهُ أَعْلَمُ، إِنَّ اللهَ تَعَالَى خَلَقَ آدَمَ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ بَعْدَ الْعَصْرِ، فَخَلَقَهُ مِنْ قَبْضَةٍ قَبَضَهَا مِنْ أَدِيمِ الْأَرْضِ كُلِّهَا، أَلَا تَرَى أَنَّ مِنْ ذُرِّيَّتِهِ الْأَحْمَرَ، وَالْأَسْوَدَ، وَالْخَبِيثَ، وَالطَّيِّبَ، ثُمَّ عَهِدَ إِلَيْهِ فَنَسِيَ، فَمِنْ ثَمَّةَ سُمِّيَ الْإِنْسَانُ، فَبِاللهِ مَا غَابَتِ الشَّمْسُ مِنْ ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ حَتَّى أُهْبِطَ إِلَى الدُّنْيَا

✧ He was asked about the hour on Friday, and he said, 'God knows best. Indeed, God, Exalted is He, created Adam ﷺ on Friday after 'Asr. He created him from a handful He took from the entire surface of the earth. Do you not see that among his descendants are the red, the black, the evil, and the good? Then He made a covenant with him, but he forgot, and from that he is called insan (human). By God, the sun did not set on that day until he was sent down to the world.'
