(1). 2955. Abū Mūsā Al-Ash'arī narrated that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "Indeed Allāh Most High created Ādam from a handful that He took from all of the earth. So the children of Ādam come in accordance with the earth, some of them come red, and white and black, and between that, and the thin, the thick, the filthy and the clean." (Ṣaḥīḥ) [Abū 'Eisā said:] This Ḥadīth is Ḥasan Ṣaḥīḥ.

٢٩٥٥ - حَدَّثَنَا ‌مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ ، ‌وَابْنُ أَبِي عَدِيٍّ ، ‌وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ ، ‌وَعَبْدُ الْوَهَّابِ قَالُوا: حَدَّثَنَا ‌عَوْفُ بْنُ أَبِي جَمِيلَةَ الْأَعْرَابِيُّ ، عَنْ ‌قَسَامَةَ بْنِ زُهَيْرٍ ، عَنْ ‌أَبِي مُوسَى الْأَشْعَرِيِّ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «إِنَّ اللهَ تَعَالَى خَلَقَ آدَمَ» مِنْ قَبْضَةٍ قَبَضَهَا مِنْ جَمِيعِ الْأَرْضِ، فَجَاءَ بَنُو آدَمَ عَلَى قَدْرِ الْأَرْضِ، فَجَاءَ مِنْهُمُ الْأَحْمَرُ وَالْأَبْيَضُ وَالْأَسْوَدُ وَبَيْنَ ذَلِكَ، وَالسَّهْلُ وَالْحَزْنُ، وَالْخَبِيثُ وَالطَّيِّبُ. هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ.

Commentary

Ādam ﷺ was created with an extract of soil from the whole earth. The various parts of the earth are different in color, nature and reality, and the effect of the various colors and natures exist distinctively in the human created from them. Basic colors are only red, white and black. Other colors are made of their mixture and combination.
