254 - (م) عَنْ أَنَسٍ: أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صلّى الله عليه وسلّم قَالَ: (لَمَّا صَوَّرَ اللهُ آدَمَ فِي الجَنَّةِ تَرَكَهُ مَا شَاءَ اللهُ أَنْ يَتْرُكَهُ، فَجَعَلَ إِبْلِيسُ يُطِيفُ بِهِ [1] ، يَنْظُرُ مَا هُوَ، فَلَمَّا رَآهُ أَجْوَفَ [2] عَرَفَ أَنَّهُ خُلِقَ خَلْقاً لاَ يَتَمَالَكُ [3] ) .
Anas ibn Mālik (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "When Allah fashioned Adam in Paradise, He left him (in the form He created him) as long as He desired to leave him (i.e. for a certain period of time). Satan started to go round Adam looking at him. Once he saw that Adam had a hollow body, he realized that he was a weak creature."
