Abstract

The philosophy of this research lies in the dialogue that took place between God Almighty and the angels when the Almighty initiated the creation of Adam as his successor on earth, and in the questions of the angels about the wisdom of man’s existence on earth specifically, and in his saying, come, I know what you do not know, glory be to Him, presenting to His servants His creation What is new and its position to celebrate the status of Adam with God, may His might and majesty be glorified ?
This research revolves around drawing human relationships with each other and the relationship of humanity with the universe and the rest of the creatures from the sky and the earth, the sun and the moon, the stars, the winds, the night and the day, the seas and rivers, the birds, the trees and the animals. The role they are required to play, and the last question comes: What did the children of Adam do with that lofty status with God, may He be glorified and exalted, and did they preserve the trust that they carried from God’s power in His creation and his absolute knowledge?
