15. Who are the ‘everyone’ that were ordered to exit?

Prophet Adam and his partner were ordered to exit paradise by God, while this being so we find verse 2:28 calling everyone to exit. Who does ‘everyone’ refer to? This refers to the entire humankind till the doomsday carried within them at the beginning of humans. 

God created from the loins of Prophet Adam’s descendants his progeny and asked them to testify that He is their Lord, and they did. (Al-Quran 7:172). From this verse it could be understood that the term ‘everyone exits’ paradise refers to unborn descendants of Prophet Adam.

The people who live in this world now, and those who lived in the past, and those yet to live are all contained in the first human being. The trait of every human being differentiated from the other is a hereditary character passed on from one generation to the other stands scientifically proved by this verse.

These verses are one of the many types of evidence that prove the Quran is God’s word.
