Contrary to the concept of Original Sin that we heard so much recently and a prophet
blood is said to have whitewashed them up well in advance, the Al-Quran debunked this
concept.  Consider the following Al-Quranic verses of conversation among the Dwellers of
Paradise:
As-Saffat (Those ranged in Ranks) 37 :  57   "Had it not been for the grace of my Lord, I
visio would certainly have been among those brought forth. (Resurrected as Man or Jinn)
Posts: 883 As-Saffat 37 :  58   "Are we then not to die (anymore)?"
As-Saffat 37 :  59   "Except our first death, and we shall be not punished?
As-Saffat 37 :  60   Truly, this is the supreme sucess!
For the like of this let the workers work.
One can interpret this string of verses to mean the following:

1.   By the story of Noah loading the ship with all kind of animals, the first soul of our
very First Person were a composite mixture synthesised from the spirit (consciousness)
of those animals in according to ALLAH's Will. That is the symbolic aspect of the story.
2.   The ship (physical body) of the first Person that each of us (once upon a time) was,
was derived from the seed of other people.  And when the infant body of our first person
was born, that new created soul that ALLAH had Created and Willed was fused by the
First Breath.  What verse 37 :  59 is saying is that the sin (I would rather say
defilements, instead) inherited by virtue of ALLAH's own Activity, He had forgiven or
not taken into account at the end of the First Death.  Therefore, we cannot say those
defilements or taken into it's extreme, evil comes from ALLAH.  True judgement would
only come beginning with the 2nd. Death. and that depends on on how successful the
conditioning has been - both by the Second Person himself/herself as a recipient and
his/her Second Parents as the deliverer of the conditioning.  And both parties are
punishable accordingly.   This interpretation took on an approach which is based on the
Al-Quranic verses on the Creation of Man and The Universe/Multiverse story leaving out
the Adam story as an allegory.
Any comment welcome, especially those who have studied the Al-Quran.  I won't be
around for two weeks (away performing a little Hajj in Mecca and visiting Medina,
InshaAllah),  Any other other interpretations to those verses (and perhaps others like
it).
Have a nice day.
