Hai

The Muslim Adam Story

The Creation of Adam and Hawa

The name Hawa is derived from the Arabic word "Hai," meaning "living," signifying that she was created from a living being.

The Mussulman tradition is, that Adam having eaten the bunch of grapes given him as a reward for having preached to the angels, fell asleep; and whilst he slept, God took from his left side a woman whom He called Hava, because she was extracted from one living (Hai), and He laid her beside Adam.
