The reason one of Adam's sons killed the other

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: Some books of tafsir (Qur'anic exegesis) mention that the reason one of Adam's sons killed the other was women; because he wanted to marry a woman, but the other one got her. Is this statement correct?

Answer:
I do not know, yes.
