Had Adam and Eve obeyed his direction, they would have been spared tragic consequences ​ — a life filled with pain and ending in their death with no hope.
وَهُوَ يَقُودُ شَعْبَهُ مِثْلَ رَاعٍ مُحِبٍّ يُوَجِّهُ خِرَافَهُ وَيُحَذِّرُهَا مِنَ ٱلْمَسَالِكِ ٱلْخَطِرَةِ .‏ —‏ اقرأ اشعيا ٣٠ :‏ ٢٠ ،‏ ٢١‏ .‏
