Was Adam (peace be upon him) compelled to eat from the tree, or was his expulsion from Paradise for a divine wisdom that necessitated mankind's succession on Earth?

Firstly: All matters are predetermined with their causes. Allah's preordainment of Adam's descent from Paradise and his eating from the tree did not imply compulsion; rather, he ate by his own choice and will.

Secondly: Allah's foreknowledge of what a human will do does not mean compulsion. A human acts by his own choice, and this does not contradict Allah's decree.

Thirdly: It is advisable not to debate with atheists and skeptics if one is not qualified, for fear of falling into religious tribulation, as hearts are weak and doubts are captivating.

Fourthly: The Paradise that Adam inhabited is the Eternal Paradise, according to the preponderant opinion.
