In other words, is it possible that Prophet Adam (a), though the first full human being with all of humanity’s metaphysical qualities, had biological parents or could have descended from an evolutionary tree? The main evidence against this lies in the discussion about the dhuhur or prima-facie meaning of the Qur’anic verse that compares Prophet Adam (a) to Prophet Isa (a) i.e. Jesus and his miraculous conception.  \r\nReferences:  \r\nQur’anic References: Q.15:28-30, Q.7:11, Q.3:59, Q.2:117  \r\nDr. Yadullah Sahebi, Quran Majid: Takamol va Khelqat Ensan (Iran: Sherkat Sehami Enteshar, 1387).  \r\nʿAllāmah Ṭabātābaʾī trans.
