How to reconcile the hadith of Adam and Moses with the hadith of the writing of the decrees?

Question : Between the statement of Adam (peace be upon him) in the hadith of the dispute narrated by al-Bukhari and others, in which he said to Moses . This is the first hadith, and the hadith narrated by Muslim, al-Tirmidhi, and others from the hadith of Abdullah ibn Umar ibn al-As, who said: I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say , I don't know if it is on the water. The second hadith indicates that the story of Adam was decreed before it happened by fifty thousand years. And in the first hadith, it is shown that its decree was before five. The nearness by forty years. We ask the honorable Shaykh to reconcile for us what is between the two hadiths.

Answer : My brother, the divine decrees are varied. The hadith agreed upon as authentic informs you of this: when the spirit is breathed into the fetus, the angel comes and asks his Lord those known questions about his lifespan, his happiness and misery, and so on. This is the final decree regarding this fetus, but it was decreed upon him before that. Likewise, Adam (peace be upon him) falls under the general decree, and there is a specific decree regarding him, which is what came in the hadith of the dispute between Adam and Moses (peace and blessings be upon him). There is no contradiction, because the first decree is general for all created beings, and the decree mentioned in the hadith of the dispute is a specific decree regarding Adam (peace be upon him). Just as the decree concerning every fetus is immediate, while it is still a fetus in its mother's womb, this does not contradict that decree which encompassed all created beings. Perhaps the answer is clear.

The presenter : May Allah reward you with good. It is clear, O Shaykh.
