    There are many sayings about the tree that Adam and Eve were forbidden to eat, the famous one is that it was wheat, one is about grapes, and there are also other sayings about figs, camphor, etc. But this tree is not defined by the Holy Quran and its determination is not mentioned in any authentic hadith, so according to the commentators, the best explanation is that what the Quran and hadith have left ambiguous, there is no need to define it. Rather, Allah knows best which tree it was. Also, no action or success of ours is suspended on the determination of this tree, therefore we are not obliged to do this effort. The aspects that are useful for our advice and guidance in the stories of the Prophets, peace be upon them, have been described in the Holy Quran.

    The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) had two foster mothers in his life. The first one was Halima Saadia, from the Banu Saad tribe, who took care of him in the early years of his life. The second one was Saubia, the maid of the Prophet Muhammad uncles brother, who briefly took care of him after his return from Halima home.

    Both of these women played a minor role in the Prophet life compared to his mother Aminah, who passed away when he was six years old, and his paternal grandfather Abdul Muttalib, who raised him after his mother’s death. However, the Prophet remained grateful to his foster mother Halima Saadia throughout his life and referred to her as his “mother” even after he became a prophet.
