Chapter 4 Characteristics of Adam and Hawwa' Allah, the Exalted, created Hawwa' from Adam's rib. He did not create her as a child. He created her tall--suitable for the height of Adam. Prophet Muhammad, sallallahu ^ alayhi wa sallam , informed us that Adam, may peace be upon him, was sixty cubits in height and seven cubits1 in width. A dam and Hawwa' lived in Paradise for a period of time. Then they were taken out of Paradise and brought down to earth. 1 A cubit is the distance from the tip of the middle finger to the elbow of an average size man.
