My feeling is this. I don't care really if the group fails and no one
writes in. As I said, I tried. If people would rather listen to lame
flames from obvious trolls on NGs that are unmoderated, to the point
where the participants do nothing but tattle on and insult others, that
O.K. I thought by making a place in which it was safe to discuss your
views on angels openly and without any censorship, other than
preventing people from insulting one another, that people would choose
that over the other. Maybe not. Some people love to be entertained in a
sort of Roman Gladitorial way, watching people virtually gut one
another in a blood soaked arena is often more interesting than speaking
on a subject close to one's heart.

He is amazed by the height of Adam (peace be upon him)
In saheeh al bukhari hadith No246, rasulullah states Adam was created 30m
in height. i cannot understand and imagine this can you please expain?.
Praise be to Allaah.
This hadeeth was narrated by Abu Hurayrah (may Allaah be pleased with him)
"Allaah created Adam and he was sixty cubits tall. Then He said, `Go and
greet those angels and listen to how they greet you, for that will be your
greeting and the greeting of your progeny.' He said, `Al-salaamu `alaykum
(Peace be upon you).' They said, `Al-salaamu `alaykum wa rahmat-Allaah
(Peace be upon you and the mercy of Allaah).' So they added the words `wa
rahmat Allaah.' And everyone who enters Paradise will be in the form of
Adam. People kept on growing smaller until now."
Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 3336; Muslim, 7092
According to a version narrated by Muslim: "Everyone who enters Paradise
will be in the form of Adam who was sixty cubits tall. People kept growing
smaller until now."
