And [mention, O Muhammad], when your Lord said to the angels, "I will create a human being out of clay from an altered black mud. (Q15:28)

Allah has revealed in the Qur’aan that Adam (the first, original man on earth) was created out of BLACK MUD, which scientists have already confirmed:

The name Adam

Also the name Adam means someone very black in arabic.  People confuse it with meaning red. 


The difference between Edom (Ee-dum) and Adam (Ahh-dahhm).

Both words have the color red in their basic meaning but while Edom means "ruddy red" 
Adam means "dark red".
What's another name for "dark red" class?
That's right: brown
And the word Adam was used interchangebly among the Hebrews and not only meant "brown" but also "earth/soil" the substance in which Adam was made from.
And in Arabic the word "Ahh-dahhm" means BLACK...not red.
