ALLAH GIVES THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE UNSEEN TO HIS PROPHETS ALAIHIMUSSALAM

[A/I`mran 3:179] Allah will not leave you, O People Who Believe (the Muslims) in your present state, till He separates the evil from the good; and it does not befit Allah’s Majesty to give you, the common men, knowledge of the hidden, but Allahdoes chose from His Noble Messengers whomever He wills; so believe in Allahand His Noble Messengers; and if you believe and practice piety, for you is agreat reward. (Allah gave the knowledge of the hidden to the Holy Prophet –peace and blessings be upon him.)

Allah does not give a common man the knowledge of faith anddisbelief or an insight into the hearts of men. Allah chooses persons to be HisApostles and through Revelation gives them the knowledge of some of the Unseenor creates certain signs to lead the Prophet to that knowledge. (Baidawi)

Tafseer-e-Roohul Bayan says that the Knowledge of Unseenthings cannot be attained without the medium of Sayyiduna Muhammad (sallallaahu alaihi wasallam).

[Jinn 72:26, 27] The All Knowing of all the hidden does not give anyone the control over His secrets. Except to His chosen Noble Messengers – so He appoints guards infront and behind him. (Allah gave the knowledge of the hidden to the Holy Prophet – peace and blessings be upon him.)

About Syyiduna Adam Alaihissalam

[Baqarah 2:31, 32, 33] And Allah the Supreme taught Adam all the names (of things), then presented them to the angels, saying, "Tell Me the names of these, if you are truthful." They said, "Purity is to You! We do not have any knowledge except what You have taught us! Indeed You only are the All Knowing, theWise." He said "O Adam! Inform them the names"; and when Adam had informed them their names, He said, "Did I not tell you that I know all the secrets of the heavens and the earth? And I know all what you disclose and all what youhide?"

Tafsir-e-Madarik observes that teaching Adam (alaihis salaam) the names of all the things means that Allah showed him all His creatures in person and made him learn the things by their names. Sayyiduna Ibn-e-Abbas (radi Allahu anhu) says Allah taught Adam (alaihis salaam) the names of all the things - even the cup and spoon. According to Tafseer-e-Khazin, Allah taught him the names of those that would be in his generation and also taught him all the languages.

Tafseer-e-Khabir says Allah taught Adam (alaihis salaam) the attributes and characteristics of all created things.

Tafseer-e-Roohul Bayan says Allah taught Adam (alaihis salaam) the attributes of all the things particularly their usefulness and their evils. Allah also taught him the Names of Angels and all human beings who would belong to his generation, and the names of animals and vegetation, and taught him to manufacture things, and taught him the names of the cities and towns, and trees, and the names of those whom He will create until Doomsday, and taught him the names of all the giftsin Paradise.

A Hadith says Allah taught Adam (alaihis salaam) seven lakh languages.
