Tafseer Ibn Kathir

The Creation of Man in Stages

Allah tells us that He has created everything well and formed everything in a goodly fashion.

Malik said, narrating from Zayd bin Aslam;

الَّذِي أَحْسَنَ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ خَلَقَهُ

Who made everything He has created good,

means, "He created everything well and in a goodly fashion."

When Allah mentions the creation of the heavens and the earth, He follows that by mentioning the creation of man.

Allah says;

وَبَدَأَ خَلْقَ الاِْنسَانِ مِن طِينٍ



and He began the creation of man from clay.

meaning, He created the father of mankind, Adam, from clay.

ثُمَّ جَعَلَ نَسْلَهُ مِن سُلَلَةٍ مِّن مَّاء مَّهِينٍ
