Jibrael-al-Ameen (Gabriel, the Trustworthy) called on Adam (AS) and said to him:
“God have commanded me that I offer you three wonderful things and ask you to choose only one”
Adam (A) asked: “O Jibrael ! What are those things?”
Gabriel said: “These are ‘Aql (Reason), Haya (Modesty) and Deen (Faith).
Adam (AS) said: “I would choose ‘Aql (Reason).”
Gabriel said to the other two (Haya and Deen): “Let me take back both of you!”
The both of them replied: “God have decreed us to accompany with ‘Aql wherever it would go”
Gabriel said: “Well you know your position best!”. Gabriel then rose back to the heavens. – Imam Ali (AS)
