Adam's body was made of clay, and he mixed water with dirt, then breathed a soul and a spirit into him. It was mentioned in the first prophecy in some of the books revealed to a prophet among the Children of Israel, the text of which I will mention now, as there is a need to mention it, for the truest news is what was narrated from God Almighty, so we narrated it from Muslima. Ibn Waddah, with his chain of transmission, and he was from the people of Cordoba. He said,
