No, Muslims do not believe that the sin of Adam was passed on to his offspring.

Muslims believe that they are responsible for their own actions only, not that of Adam. Some Muslims believe Adam did sin and was forgiven.

However a large section of Muslims believe that Adam never sinned. He was given two choices, and choose the lesser good, known in philosophy as "Tark E Awla".

They argue that God never forbade Adam from eating, but only suggested it best not to do so.

What do you call Adam and Eves sin?

"Original Sin" or "Sin of Adam"AnswerMuslims also believe that both Adam and Eve admitted their sin, repented, asked God for forgiveness. God accepted their repentance and forgave them (Quran Ch2 V.34-38)Muslims believe that no one of Adam and Eve's descendants will be punished by Adam and Eve's sin. Everyone will be judged only on their own beliefs, deeds, and conduct.Muslims believe that you are responsible for yourself in front of God the Creator on the Last Day of Judgment. No one, except God the Creator, can forgive you and accept you in His paradise per His mercy.Christians believe that no one can be perfect enough to compare to God. And that the only way to enter heaven is to accept Jesus' death in place of their own to remove their sins and make them appear perfect before God.

What was the orignal sin?

The original sin was Adam and Eve eating the fruit that God told them not to eat. But more than that original sin is the Christian teaching that the propensity and desire to sin was passed down to humanity, and that everyone as soon as they are capable of moral choice, willingly choose to sin. The doctrine of original sin also tells us that all people have rebelled against God and that apart from Jesus, everyone is deserving of eternal separation from God (Hell).


With whom did sin originate?

The First Sin commited according to the scriptures was by Eve when Satan tempted her into eating an apple from a tree which GOD had forbidded. She gave the same apple to Adam her husband and he committed the sin as well. So the sin orginated from Adam and Eve and is known as the original sin.
