Shaitaan Examining the Mould of Nabi Aadam (‘alaihis salaam)

It is reported in the Hadith that after Allah Ta‘ala fashioned the form of Nabi Aadam (‘alaihis salaam) and created his mould, He left it for some time before blowing the soul into it.

During this period, Iblees came to the lifeless mould of Nabi Aadam (‘alaihis salaam) and walked around it, closely examining it to see what it was and to determine its nature.
