Question

What is the authenticity of the following narration?

“The clothing of Adam and Hawa was light [nur] which covered their private parts, none could see the ‘awrah [private area] of the other. When they erred [by eating from the tree], their private parts had become exposed”

 

Answer

Imam Ibn Jarir (rahimahullah) has recorded this narration as the statement of the reliable Tabi’i, Wahb ibn Munabbih (rahimahullah) who famously reports Israely (historical) narrations.

Hafiz Ibn Kathir (rahimahullah) has declared the chain reliable.

(Tafsir Tabari and Tafsir Ibn Kathir, Surah Al A’raf, Verse: 22)

 

And Allah Ta’ala Knows best.

التخريج من المصادر العربية

تفسير الطبري: (سورة الأعراف ٢٢)
حدثني المثنى، قال: ثنا إسحاق، قال: ثنا عبد الله بن الزبير، عن ابن عيينة، قال: ثنا عمرو، قال: سمعت وهب بن منبه، يقول: {ينزع عنهما لباسهما} [الأعراف: ٢٧]، قال: «كان لباس آدم وحواء عليهما السلام نورا على فروجهما، لا يرى هذا عورة هذه، ولا هذه عورة هذا. فلما أصابا الخطيئة بدت لهما سوآتهما».

تفسير ابن كثير: (سورة الأعراف ٢٢)
وقال وهب بن منبه في قوله: {ينزع عنهما لباسهما} قال: كان لباس آدم وحواء نورا على فروجهما، لا يرى هذا عورة هذه، ولا هذه عورة هذا. فلما أكلا من الشجرة بدت لهما سوآتهما. رواه ابن جرير بإسناد صحيح إليه.
