[quote]Allah Most High sent down His Book to humankind. It has no human intervention and its words testify to this. The story of Adam and his spouse is revealed to us in a dignified and respectful manner. It becomes obvious when studying this narration that it was not edible fruit that Allah SWT refers to as there was an abundance of that throughout the garden from which Adam and Eve could have enjoyed. And Allah SWT tells Adam not to APPROACH OR GO NEAR this tree. I always felt that this was about controlling the Nafs (ego) and obeying Allah SWT over any personal desires. The drive of sex is known to be as strong as extreme hunger and thirst as taught in the field of Psychology. And it is this that has degraded and destroyed civilizations of the past and threatens the same sort of destruction today. I agree with this explanation and other scholars have also linked the forbidden tree with these two vices.[/quote]
