Female Figures in The Quran - Eve

Eve

Eve is not mentioned by name in the Quran. God created Adam and Eve and bestowed them a place to live in namely Paradise. The first human mistake was by Adam and Eve who both ate a fruit forbidden to them by God:

"So We said: O Adam! This is an enemy to you and to your wife; therefore let him not drive you both forth from the garden so that you should be unhappy; " — Qur'an, Sura 20 (Ta-Ha), ayat 117

Famous quotes containing the word eve:

    The only way to spend New Year’s Eve is either quietly with friends or in a brothel. Otherwise when the evening ends and people pair off, someone is bound to be left in tears.
    —W.H. (Wystan Hugh)

    The male has been persuaded to assume a certain onerous and disagreeable rôle with the promise of rewards—material and psychological. Women may in the first place even have put it into his head. BE A MAN! may have been, metaphorically, what Eve uttered at the critical moment in the Garden of Eden.
    Wyndham Lewis (1882–1957)

    Eminent spiritualists shall have an incapacity of putting their act or word aloof from them, and seeing it bravely for the nothing it is. Beware of the man who says, “I am on the eve of a revelation.”
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
