It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Once, in the realm of souls, there was a debate between Hazrat Adam and Hazrat Musa (peace be upon them). Hazrat Musa (peace be upon him) said: O Adam! Are you the one whose mistake caused us to be expelled from Paradise? Hazrat Adam (peace be upon him) replied: O Musa, are you the one whom Allah chose to speak to directly and to convey His message? Do you blame me for something which Allah had decreed for me before my creation? In this way, Hazrat Adam (peace be upon him) prevailed over Hazrat Musa (peace be upon him).
