Adam (AS) is the first human and the first prophet. According to some Islamic narrations, after being expelled from [[paradise]], Adam settled in [[Mecca]]. His repentance was accepted in Mecca, and he was the one who built the Kaaba. He was also the first to learn the [[Rites of Hajj|rituals of Hajj]] from the [[Gabriel]] and performed the pilgrimage many times.
Fakh is an area in the north of [[Mecca]], near [[Tan'im Mosque]], about four kilometers from [[Masjid al-Haram]].
==Lexicology==
According to Shia jurists, this place is the location where children enter into ihram. The cemetery of the martyrs of Fakh is also located here.
The name "Adam" is used in the Quran and the two Testaments to refer to the first human, and with slight variations, it is used in other Semitic languages such as Phoenician, Hebrew, Syriac, and Mandean. In addition to being a proper noun, it is also used as a generic term equivalent to the word "human."<ref>Jeffrey, ''Wāzhihāy-i dakhī dar Qurā-i Majīd'', p. 106-107.</ref>
This cemetery is the burial site of Husayn ibn Ali (known as Sahib al-Fakh) and a number of Hasanid nobles who were martyred in the battle against the Abbasids in the year 169 AH at Fakh.
==Creation==
According to historians, the graves of some companions of the Prophet including Abdullah ibn Umar ibn al-Khattab — were also located in this area but were demolished during the Saudi period.
Abrahamic religions, as well as other religions and beliefs of Semitic people, narrate a relatively similar story of the creation and establishment of the first human. In the Quran (for example, Surah Al-Baqarah, verses 30-38; Surah Al-A'raf, verses 19-25) and the Old Testament,(Genesis: 1:26-30; 2:7.) the story of Prophet Adam, including the creation from clay, the formation of the body, and the infusion of the soul, is detailed. Different perspectives on each of these stages and various aspects, especially the concept of instantaneous or gradual creation, are discussed in various interpretations.<ref>Ṭabāṭabāʾī, ''Al-Mīzān'', vol. 4, p. 143; vol. 16, p. 255.</ref>Some, based on scientific findings and certain narratives, argue that humans existed before Adam.<ref>Sharīʿatī and others, [https://ensani.ir/fa/article/497657/%D8%A7%D9%85%DA%A9%D8%A7%D9%86-%D8%B3%D9%86%D8%AC%DB%8C-%D8%AF%D9%84%D8%A7%D8%A6%D9%84-%D8%A7%D8%AB%D8%A8%D8%A7%D8%AA-%D9%86%D8%B8%D8%B1%DB%8C%D9%87-%D8%A7%D8%A8%D9%88%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%A8%D8%B4%D8%B1-%D8%A8%D9%88%D8%AF%D9 Feasibility study of the proofs of the theory that Adam, peace be upon him, is the father of mankind, emphasizing verse 1 of Nisa], p. 164.</ref>
According to some narrations, the Prophet prayed in this place, foretold the martyrdom of one of his descendants, and wept in mourning for him.
==Location==
Fakh, or Wādī Zāhir (Zahir Valley),<ref>Fāsī, '' Shifāʾ al-Gharām '', vol. 1, p. 472.
</ref>
It is the name of an area in the north of [[Mecca]], near [[Tan'im Mosque]].
This place is located 4 kilometers from al-Masjid al-Ḥarām (the Sacred Mosque).
Today, this place is referred to as “Ḥayyu al-Shuhadā’” (the Neighborhood of the Martyrs).


==Descent to Mecca==
The Cemetery of the Martyrs of Fakh
After Adam (AS) and his wife Hawwa (Eve) ate the forbidden fruit, they descended from paradise to Earth, accompanied by Satan. Various interpretations have been proposed regarding the type of paradise, the manner of descent, and the philosophy behind eating the forbidden fruit.<ref>Fakhr al-Rāzī, ''Al-Tafsīr al-Kabīr'', vol. 3, p. 2-28; Ṭabāṭabāʾī, ''Al-Mīzān'', vol. 1, p. 126-154.</ref>
In the Fakh area, there is a mountain at the foot of which lies a cemetery known as the Cemetery of the Martyrs of Fakh.(2) Jaʿfarīān, ''Āthār Islāmiyya Makkah wa Madīnah'' , p. 199-200.
The martyrs of Fakh were a group of Sādāt Ḥasanī (descendants of Imam Hasan) who were martyred in the battle against the Abbasids in the year 169 AH at this pl According to the latest contemporary sources, this cemetery is relatively spacious but has been divided into three sections due to the road. ace.(3) Ibn Khaldūn, ''Tārīkh Ibn Khaldūn'' vol. 5,p. 148.
According to the latest contemporary sources, this cemetery is relatively spacious but has been divided into three sections due to the road. Part of it is about two meters above street level, and the main section is enclosed by a courtyard wall with a gate that is always closed. It is said that the grave of Ḥusayn ibn ʿAlī (the martyr of Fakh) is located within this walled enclosure.(2) Jaʿfarīān, ''Āthār Islāmiyya Makkah wa Madīnah'' , p. 199-200.


In the Quran and the Torah, the exact location of the descent is not specified. In Islamic traditions, several perspectives on this matter have been presented. According to a narration attributed to Imam Ali (AS), Adam descended in the Sarandib region of India, and Hawwa descended in [[Jeddah]].<ref>Ṣadūq, ''ʿIlal al-sharāʾiʿ'', vol. 2, p. 595; Maybudī, ''Kashf al-asrār, vol. 1, p. 151; Fakhr al-Rāzī, ''Al-Tafsīr al-Kabīr'', vol. 3, p. 27; Majlisī, ''Biḥār al-anwār'', vol. 11, p. 111; vol. 61, p. 274.</ref> Another report suggests that Adam descended on Mount Safa and Hawwa on Mount Marwah, with the naming of Safa commemorating Adam's title "Safi Allah" and the naming of Marwah related to the descent of this woman.<ref>Kulaynī, ''Al-Kāfī'', vol. 4, p. 190; Ṭabāṭabāʾī, ''Al-Mīzān'', vol. 1, p. 139. </ref> The more well-known account in traditions is that Adam and Hawwa descended in the land of [[Mecca]].<ref>ʿAyyāshī, ''Tafsīr al-ʿAyyāshī'', vol. 1, p. 36-39; Ibn Abī l-Ḥātam, ''Tafsīr al-Qurʾān al-ʿaẓīm'', vol. 1, p. 88; Kulaynī, ''Al-Kāfī'', vol. 4, p. 190.</ref> Some also reconcile between these narratives, considering the descent to have occurred in two stages: first in Sarandib and then in Mecca.<ref>Ṭabāṭabāʾī, ''Al-Mīzān'', vol. 1, p. 150.</ref>
According to some reports from the year 1391 SH (2012-2013 CE), the Cemetery of the Martyrs of Fakh was destroyed and turned into a garbage dump.(4) ISNA, news code: 91090602351.
===Descent of the Black Stone(حجر الأسود)===
In some narratives, the descent of the Black Stone from paradise is mentioned along with the descent of Adam (AS).<ref>Ṣadūq, ''Kamāl al-dīn'', p. 294, 298; ʿIzz al-Dīn ʿAbd al-salām,  ''Tafsīr al-ʿIzz al-Dīn'', vol. 3, p. 289.</ref> Other accounts specifically attribute the descent of the Black Stone(حجر الأسود) to Adam(AS).<ref>Kulaynī, ''Al-Kāfī'', vol. 4, p. 185; Ṣadūq, ''ʿIlal al-sharāʾiʿ'', vol. 2, p. 318.</ref>


===Repentance of Adam in Mecca===
The Martyr of Fakh
Regarding the acceptance of Adam's repentance, it is mentioned that after the descent of [[Gabriel]] to the [[ka'ba]], his light covered the entire sacred precinct. Then, Adam was instructed to perform the ritual bath on the Day of [[Tarwiyah]], wear the [[ihram]], and perform the [[Tawaf|circumambulation]] (tawaf) in [[Mina]]. Finally, in [['Arafat|Arafat]], he received words from Gabriel, uttering which his repentance was accepted, and from then on, he proceeded to perform the rest of the [[Rituals of tamattuʿ|Hajj rituals]].<ref>Qummī, ''Tafsīr al-Qummī'', vol. 1, p. 44-45.</ref>
Ḥusayn ibn ʿAlī ibn Ḥasan al-Muthallath ibn Ḥasan al-Muthannā, son of Imam Hasan al-Mujtaba (peace be upon him), known as Ṣāḥib al-Fakh(5) Abū al-Faraj Isfahānī, '' Maqātil al-Ṭālibiyyīn '',p. 364.
==The Role of Adam in the Construction of the Ka'ba==
He was the leader of a revolt against the Abbasid government, which is referred to as the Incident of Fakh or the Uprising of Fakh(6) Abū al-Faraj Isfahānī, '' Maqātil al-Ṭālibiyyīn '',p. 366-367.


The role of Prophet Adam (AS) in the construction of the Ka'ba depends on different views about the time of the Kaaba's origin, leading to variations in opinions. In some Shia and Sunni narrations, the existence of the Kaaba before Adam (AS) is mentioned,<ref>Shāfiʿī, ''Musnad al-Shāfiʿī'', p. 116; Ṣadūq, ''Man lā yaḥḍuruh al-faqīh'', vol. 2, p. 250.</ref> and reports of angels performing the pilgrimage before Adam support this idea.<ref>Kulaynī, ''Al-Kāfī'', vol. 4, p. 194; Ṣadūq, ''Man lā yaḥḍuruh al-faqīh'', vol. 2, p. 230; Suyūṭī, ''Al-Durr al-manthūr'', vol. 1, p. 130.</ref> In some reports, the history of the Kaaba dates back more than 2000 years before the (دَحْو الارض)Earth's creation.<ref>Kulaynī, ''Al-Kāfī'', vol. 4, p. 198; Bayhaqī, ''Sunan al-kubrā'', vol. 5, p. 177.</ref>
Ṣāḥib al-Fakh was martyred on the 8th of Dhul-Hijjah in the year 169 AH (Yawm al-Tarwiyah) in the Fakh region during the battle against the army of Hādī al-‘Abbāsī (reigned 169–170 AH), along with most of his soldiers, including about 100 of the Hasanid descendants(7) ʿ Amīn Āmīlī,, '' A‘yān al-Shīʿa'',vol. 6, p. 97.
According to al-Ḥamawī, a 7th-century AH historian, the bodies of the martyrs, after remaining on the ground for three days and being preyed upon by wild animals, were buried in the place now known as the Cemetery of the Martyrs of Fakh.(8) Yāqūt al-Ḥamawī, '' Muʿjam al-Buldān'',vol. 4, p. 238.
The Martyr of Fakh, or Ṣāḥib al-Fakh, began his uprising from Medina.(9) Abū al-Faraj Isfahānī, '' Maqātil al-Ṭālibiyyīn '',p. 372.
After taking control of the city, due to the approaching Hajj season, he moved toward Mecca with 300 of his companions and close followers.
But upon reaching the Fakh region, he confronted the Abbasid army, commanded by ʿAbbās ibn Muḥammad (a descendant of ʿAbdullāh ibn ʿAbbās), and in this battle all of his army were martyred, with only a few captured. Some of his relatives, including his uncle Idrīs ibn ʿAbdullāh, managed to escape Idrīs fled to the Maghreb and established the Idrisid dynasty there.(10) Various Authors, ''Tārīkh al-Tashayyūʿ''. Vol. 1, p. 263.
Other Graves
It is said that ʿAbdullāh ibn ʿUmar ibn al-Khaṭṭāb(11) Ibn Saʿd, ''al-Ṭabaqāt al-Kubrā'',vol. 4, p. 142.
And a number of the ṣaḥābah (companions of the Prophet) are also buried in the Fakh region(12) Yāqūt al-Ḥamawī, '' Muʿjam al-Buldān'',vol. 4, p. 238.
There is also a report of the burial of ʿAbdullāh ibn Zubayr in Fakh(13) Jaʿfarīān, '',Āthār Islāmiyya Makkah wa Madīnah '', p. 200.
Virtue / Merit


Commentators often discuss these narratives in light of the verse {إِنَّ أَوَّلَ بَیتٍ وُضِعَ لِلنَّاسِ لَلَّذِی بِبَکةَ مُبَارَکا...} (Quran:3:96) and consider this verse as supporting those narratives.<ref>Ṭabarī, ''Jāmiʾ al-bayān'', vol. 1, p. 762.</ref> In another category of narratives, Adam is considered the first founder of the [[Ka'ba]], and also [[Jerusalem]].<ref>Kulaynī, ''Al-Kāfī'', vol. 4, p. 188; Aynī, ''ʿUmdat al-qarī'', vol. 15, p. 262; Suyūṭī, ''Sharḥ al-sunan al-nisāʾī'', vol. 2, p. 33.</ref> In a narration by ''Wahb b. Munabbih'', Seth, the son of Adam, is introduced as the builder of the Ka'ba.<ref>Ibn ʿAbd al-Barr, ''Al-Istidhkār'', vol. 4, p. 185; Qurṭubī, ''Tafsīr al-Qurtubī'', vol. 2, p. 122; Ibn Ḥajar al-ʿAsqalānī, ''Fatḥ al-bārī'', vol. 6, p. 285.</ref>
According to a narration, the Messenger of God (peace be upon him), while traveling from Medina to Mecca, performed ghusl (ritual purification) at Fakh, which was six miles from Mecca [and is now part of the city of Mecca], before entering Mecca.(14) Ḥumayrī, '' al-Rawḍ al-Miʿṭār fī Khabar al-Aqṭār'', p. 436.


Many scholars and interpreters, based on certain narrations, consider Prophet Abraham (AS) as the first founder of the Ka'ba,<ref>Bukhārī, ''Ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī'', vol. 4, p. 116; Ṭabarī, ''Jāmiʾ al-bayān'', vol. 1, p. 763; Ibn Kathīr al-Dimashqī, ''Tafsīr al-Qurʾān al-ʿaẓīm'', vol. 3, p. 226.</ref> not attributing any role to Adam in this regard. Some, considering the explicit mention in the Quran regarding Abraham's role in building the Ka'ba, do not find the narrations about Adam's role and his pilgrimage credible.<ref>Rashīd Riḍā, ''al-manār'', vol. 1, p. 383.</ref> Some gather narratives about the construction of the Kaaba, suggesting that angels built it before Adam's descent, and later, Adam, then Seth, and finally, Abraham revived and reconstructed it.<ref>Ālūsī, ''Rūḥ al-maʿānī'', vol. 4, p. 5.</ref>
According to another narration, the Prophet (peace be upon him) stood in ṣalāh (prayer) at this place and wept during the prayer The Prophet explained that he wept because one of his descendants would be martyred at this place.(15) ) Abū al-Faraj Isfahānī, '' Maqātil al-Ṭālibiyyīn '',p. 366-367.
==Hajj of Adam==


In the book al-Kafi, which is one of the primary sources of Shia hadith, there is a dedicated section on the Hajj of Adam, and detailed explanations of his pilgrimage are mentioned in several narrations.<ref>Kulaynī, ''Al-Kāfī'', vol. 4, p. 190-197.</ref> According to these narrations, the angel Gabriel taught Adam the rituals of Hajj step by step as follows:


1. Gabriel first took Adam to [['Arafat]] and instructed him to seek forgiveness during the evening.
Also, Imam Ja‘far al-Ṣādiq (peace be upon him), while passing through this place, foretold the martyrdom of one of his Ahl al-Bayt at this location.(16) ) Abū al-Faraj Isfahānī, '' Maqātil al-Ṭālibiyyīn '',p. 367. , Muḥaddith Qumī, ''Muntahā al-Āmāl'', vol. 1, p. 261.
2. Then, they went to Baitul Muqaddas (Jerusalem), where Gabriel recommended seeking forgiveness during sunrise.
3. Afterward, they went to Mina and performed the sacrifice, stoning the pillars, and performing the acts of Halq (shaving) and Taqsir (trimming).
4. Finally, the rituals of Tawaf, including the seven rounds of Tawaf and Tawaf of the Women, were taught to Adam.
Gabriel (AS) assisted Adam in performing the acts of Halq, sacrifice, and other [[Rites of Hajj al-Tamattu'|Hajj rituals]].<ref>Kulaynī, ''Al-Kāfī'', vol. 4, p. 196-197.</ref>


===The number of Hajj rituals of Adam===
There are differences regarding the number of Hajj rituals performed by Adam, including 30,<ref>Ṣadūq, ''ʿIlal al-sharāʾiʿ'', vol. 2, p. 594.</ref> 40,<ref>Thaʿālibī, ''Tafsīr al-thaʿālibī'', vol. 1, p. 274; Baghawī, ''Tafsir al-Baghawī'', vol. 1, p. 115; Ibn Athīr al-Jazarī, ''Al-Kāmil fī l-tārīkh'', vol. 1, p. 38.</ref> 70,<ref>Ṣadūq, ''ʿUyūn akhbār al-Riḍā'', vol. 2, p. 220; Ḥurr al-ʿĀmilī, ''Wasāʾil al-Shīʿa'', vol. 24, p. 148; Majlisī, ''Biḥār al-anwār'', vol. 10, p. 78.</ref> 700,<ref>Ṣadūq, ''Man lā yaḥḍuruh al-faqīh'', vol. 2, p. 229;  Ḥurr al-ʿĀmilī, ''Wasāʾil al-Shīʿa'', vol. 11, p. 128.</ref> or 1000.<ref>Ibn Khuzayma, ''Ṣaḥīḥ Ibn Khuzayma'', vol. 4, p. 245;Ibn Abi al-Jumhūr, ''ʿAwālī al-liʾālī'', vol. 2, p. 97; Muʿizzī Malāyirī, ''Jāmiʿ aḥādīth al-Shīʿa'', vol. 10, p. 460.</ref> These numbers are typically mentioned in narrations from non-infallible sources or transmitted traditions.

Miqāt for Children
 
According to Shia jurists, based on narrations, Fakh is considered the miqāt (designated station for entering ihrām) for children.(19) Rūḥānī, '' al-Murtaqā ilā al-Fiqh al-Arqā '', vol. 2, p. 28.
In a narration, Imam Ja‘far al-Ṣādiq (peace be upon him), in response to the question of where the sewn garments of children could be removed [and where they could be made to enter ihrām], said: “My father, Imam Muhammad al-Bāqir (peace be upon him), would remove the children’s garments at Fakh and make them enter ihrām.”(20) Kulaynī, ''  al-Kāfī'', vol. 4, p. 303. , Shaykh Ṣadūq, '' Man Lā Yaḥḍuruhu al-Faqīh''  , vol. 2, p. 433.
Some jurists believe that the guardian of a child can make the child enter ihrām at one of the five designated miqāts on their behalf—by intending on their behalf and reciting the Talbiyah—but the act of removing the child’s garments and putting on the ihrām can be delayed until reaching Fakh.(21) Anṣārī, '' Maʿālim al-Dīn fī Fiqh Āl Yāsīn ''  ,vol. 1, p. 230. , Rūḥānī, '' al-Murtaqā ilā al-Fiqh al-Arqā '', vol. 2, p. 28.
 
Most Shia jurists believe that the actual ihrām for children can be performed from Fakh, serving as their designated miqāt.(22) Anṣārī, '' Mawsūʿat Aḥkām al-Aṭfāl wa Adillatuhā'' , vol. 5, p. 282.
Of course, this applies to cases other than Ḥajj al-Tamattu
 
Some contemporary jurists, such as Muhammad-Taqi Bahjat, hold that the guardian of a child can make the child enter ihrām at one of the well-known miqāts and may delay the removal of the sewn garments and putting on the ihrām until reaching Fakh.(23) Iftikhārī Golpāygānī, ''  Ārāʾ al-Marājiʿ fī al-Ḥajj ʿalā Ḍawʾ Fatāwā al-Imām al-Khomeynī. '', vol. 1, p. 34.
Sunni jurists are either opposed to this or remain silent on the matter. However, some of them say that there is no problem in delaying the ihrām of a child until reaching the Ḥaram (the Sacred Mosque) or near it(24) Ibn ʿAbd al-Barr al-Qurṭubī, '' al-Kāfī fī Fiqh Ahl al-Madīnah '',vol. 1, p. 411.
