Quick fact: Hazrat Adam (AH) is called Abu Al-Bashar, meaning "Father of Mankind," because he was the first human being created by Allah.

Explanation

The title "Abu Al-Bashar" (Father of Mankind) is given to Hazrat Adam (AH) because he is the first human being and the first prophet created by Allah. All human beings are descended from him, making him the father of the entire human race. This title is widely recognized in Islamic tradition and highlights his unique position as the starting point of human creation and prophethood.

Good to know

Hazrat Adam (AH) was created directly by Allah from clay, and Hawwa (Eve) was created from his rib. He was granted knowledge of all things by Allah and the angels were commanded to prostrate before him, though Iblis refused. Adam (AH) is also the first prophet in Islam, and his story of descent from Paradise to Earth marks the beginning of human life on earth.
