The Koran is not a sequential narrative in the way that the Hebrew Bible is, and does not have a direct copy of the creation account from Genesis. However, the Koran clearly accepts the biblical story of the creation and lives of Adam and Eve, as well as adding Islamic traditions.

When God created Adam from clay, the Devil refused to prostrate himself before Adam, as commanded by God, whereupon he was expelled from Eden. The Koran says that Adam erected the Kaaba on earth but this was destroyed during the Flood and Abraham was instructed to rebuild it, assisted by Ishmail. Unlike the Old Testament, the Koran does not blame Eve for taking the forbidden fruit:

Sura 007.019-020: "O Adam! dwell thou and thy wife in the Garden, and enjoy (its good things) as ye wish: but approach not this tree, or ye run into harm and transgression." Then began Satan to whisper suggestions to them, bringing openly before their minds all their shame that was hidden from them (before): he said: "Your Lord only forbade you this tree, lest ye should become angels or such beings as live for ever."

The Koran is not a narrative in the same way as, for example, the Book of Genesis, but is arguably based on a knowledge of Christian and Jewish beliefs. There are many references to Adam and Eve, from which can be built up an understanding that, in most respects, Muslims hold the same beliefs about Adam and Eve as do followers of the two older Abrahamic religions.
