Chapter: People Will Enter Paradise Whose Hearts Are Like The Hearts Of Birds
Abu Huraira reported Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) as saying:
Allah, the Exalted and Glorious, created Adam in His image with His length of sixty cubits, and as He created him He told him to greet that group, and that was a party of angels sitting there, and listen to the response that they give him, for it would form his greeting and that of his offspring. He then went away and said: Peace be upon you! They (the angels) said: May there be peace upon you and the Mercy of Allah, and they made an addition of" Mercy of Allah". So he who would get into Paradise would get in the form of Adam, his length being sixty cubits, then the people who followed him continued to diminish in size up to this day. - Sahih:Muslim:2841 (islam)
-If a cubit range from 53 to 120 cm, Adam could be around 6 meters tall, Is it true?
Chapter: How the Salam began
Narrated Abu Huraira:
The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Allah created Adam in His picture, sixty cubits (about 30 meters) in height. When He created him, He said (to him), "Go and greet that group of angels sitting there, and listen what they will say in reply to you, for that will be your greeting and the greeting of your offspring." Adam (went and) said, 'As-Salamu alaikum (Peace be upon you).' They replied, 'AsSalamu-'Alaika wa Rahmatullah (Peace and Allah's Mercy be on you) So they increased 'Wa Rahmatullah' The Prophet (ﷺ) added 'So whoever will enter Paradise, will be of the shape and picture of Adam Since then the creation of Adam's (offspring) (i.e. stature of human beings is being diminished continuously) to the present time." - Sahih:Al Bukhari:6227 (islam)

[34]Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.
[35]For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law. - Bible:NT:Matthew 10:34:35 (bible)
-Did Jesus came to bring War?
- Did Jesus came with a sword?
- Does Jesus condone violence?
- If Jesus is God, is he a God of War?
[7]Thus will I make mount Seir most desolate, and cut off from it him that passeth out and him that returneth.
[8]And I will fill his mountains with his slain men: in thy hills, and in thy valleys, and in all thy rivers, shall they fall that are slain with the sword.
[9]I will make thee perpetual desolations, and thy cities shall not return: and ye shall know that I am the LORD. - Bible:OT:Ezekiel 35:7:9 (bible)
-Is God a destroyer of life?
- Why are we worshiping him?
[9]And said unto them, Thus saith the LORD, the God of Israel, unto whom ye sent me to present your supplication before him;
[10]If ye will still abide in this land, then will I build you, and not pull you down, and I will plant you, and not pluck you up: for I repent me of the evil that I have done unto you. - Bible:OT:Jeremiah 42:9:10 (bible)
-Has God changed his mind?
- How can an all-knowing God can change his mind?
For I am the LORD, I change not; therefore ye sons of Jacob are not consumed. - Bible:OT:Malachi 3:6 (bible)
-What about the time God changed his mind (Jeremiah 42:9-10)?
- What about the new covenant with Christ?
- What about the Deluge was it about a fresh start for God?
[4]Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth:
[5]Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me; - Bible:OT:Exodus 20:4:5 (bible torah)
-Why punish the innocents?
- Why are we worshipping this kind of God?
