Is it a contradiction that Adam and Eve's kids commited incest to procreate, yet God can make humans?

The question of whether Adam and Eve's children committed incest to procreate, and how that relates to God's ability to create humans, can be understood through the lens of Islamic theology and the nature of divine creation.

The Qur'an states, And that He createth the two spouses, the male and the female 53:45. This verse emphasizes that God is the creator of all beings, including the first humans, Adam and Eve, who are considered the ancestors of all humanity.

In Islamic tradition, it is acknowledged that Adam and Eve had children who married one another, which is viewed as a necessity at that time for the continuation of the human race. The initial human population consisted solely of their descendants. Tafsir Ibn Kathir explains that this practice was not seen as sinful or forbidden at that time because the conditions of humanity were different then compared to now, where laws against such relationships exist due to genetic considerations and societal norms.

Moreover, the concept of incest is framed within the context of later revelations and the establishment of laws regarding marriage in subsequent generations. As humanity grew, so did the moral and social frameworks surrounding relationships.

Thus, there is no contradiction between the procreation practices of Adam and Eve's children and God's power to create humans. The early generations had different circumstances that are not applicable to later human societies. The creation of humans by God stands as a testament to His divine power and wisdom, which encompasses all aspects of existence, including the rules governing human relationships.
