Answer 1:Prophets are immune from, free of committing sins. They cannot commit sins.(Maktûbât-i Rabbânî, Vol. II, Letter 44)

Allah-u Teala protects Prophets from commission of sins.

Hadrat Imâm-i Rabbânî declares:

We should not think that the sins of the beloved are like the sins of enemies. "What the good look on as doing good is sinning to the beloved" has been said. Their sins and faults, if they have, are unlike others' sins. They are similar to erring or forgetting. They have not been committed on purpose, by intent.

The 115th verse of Tâhâ Sûra, which purports, "Âdam forgot. He did not commit intentionally, deliberately," indicates this fact.

This means to say that Hadrat Âdam did not mean to commit a sin. He perpetrated it not on purpose but by forgetting and in error. Therefore, he was pardoned. On the other hand, Iblîs did it deliberately and purposely, thus being cursed eternally. Both cases contained a contravention of the command. But one of them related to forgetting and erring while the other related to doing it purposely and intentionally.

Answer 2:prophets do not commit sins, but they may commit a dhalla. Dhalla means a failure in finding the truest one among many true things. Âdam 'alaihis-salâm did not eat from the prohibited fruit deliberately. Because he ate it by forgetting, he was held excusable. The 115th âyah (verse) of Tâhâ Sûra, which purports, "Âdam forgot; he did not do it intentionally, deliberately," shows that Âdam 'alaihis-salâm is excusable and sinless. The following hadîth-i sharîf, too, confirms that Âdam 'alaihis-salâm is deemed excusable:

(Âdam alaihis-salâm discussed with Mûsâ 'alaihis-salâm in the presence of their Rabb, and Âdam 'alaihis-salâm won a victory over Mûsâ 'alaihis-salâm. Mûsâ 'alaihis-salâm said:

"You are such an Âdam that Allahu ta'âlâ created you with His two hands [that is, without any means], blew from His spirit to you, made angels prostrate before you, and put you in Paradise. And then you caused humans to be sent to the earth because of your one fault."

Âdam 'alaihis-salâm said to him:

"You are such a Mûsâ that Allahu ta'âlâ appointed you as a prophet and permitted you to talk to Himself. He gave you a Book which contained explanations for you about everything. By means of your talking to Him and by means of your praying Him, He made you closer to Himself. Then you surely saw how long before my creation He wrote the Tawrât, didn't you?"

"Yes, I saw. It was 40 years before."

"O Mûsâ! Did you also see there the statement, 'Âdam made a mistake'"?

"I saw."

"Then how do you blame me for my commission of a deed which Allah had written 40 years before He created me that I would commit it?"

Thus, Âdam 'alaihis-salâm achieved a victory against Mûsâ 'alaihis-salâm.) [Bukhârî, Muslim]

Answer 3:

Yes, Adam committed sin and that is why Adam died. Only sinners die. All humans are sinners and all prophets are humans. This is the reason they die. All humans have failed to meet the perfect holiness of God and that is sin. Even the Muhammad, most important prophet of Islam, did sinned according to Quran and Allah wanted Muhammad to ask forgiveness for his sins as seen in surah 40:55, 47:19 and 48:2.

The only one who was given the title sinless in Quran was for Jesus (Surah 19:19). The Bible also testify that Jesus was sinless.
