It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah, may Allah be pleased with him, that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "A dispute arose between Adam (peace be upon him) and Musa (peace be upon him). Musa (peace be upon him) said: O Adam! You are our father, you caused us to fail and expelled us from Paradise. In another narration, he said: Are you that Adam whom his mistake expelled from Paradise? Adam (peace be upon him) said: O Musa! Are you the one whom Allah Almighty selected with His Word and His Messengership, and wrote the Torah for you with His own hand? Now, do you blame me for something which Allah Almighty had written for me forty years before my creation?" The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "In this way, Adam (peace be upon him) prevailed over Musa (peace be upon him), Adam (peace be upon him) prevailed over Musa (peace be upon him)."
