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.
