the correct answer is Adam

Reference : Surah Al-Baqarah 2: 34 :

وَإِذْ قُلْنَا لِلْمَلَـٰٓئِكَةِ ٱسْجُدُوا۟ لِـَٔادَمَ فَسَجَدُوٓا۟ إِلَّآ إِبْلِيسَ أَبَىٰ وَٱسْتَكْبَرَ وَكَانَ مِنَ ٱلْكَـٰفِرِينَ ٣٤

Translation: And ˹remember˺ when We said to the angels, “Prostrate before Adam,”¹ so they all did—but not Iblîs,² who refused and acted arrogantly,³ becoming unfaithful.

Tafseer:

This Ayah mentions the great honor that Allah granted Adam, and Allah reminded Adam’s offspring of this fact. Allah commanded the angels to prostrate before Adam, as this Ayah and many Hadiths testify, such as the Hadith about the intercession that we discussed. There is a Hadith about the supplication of Musa, “O my Lord! Show me Adam who caused us and himself to be thrown out of Paradise.” When Musa met Adam, he said to him, “Are you Adam whom Allah created with His Own Hands, blew life into and commanded the angels to prostrate before” Iblis was among Those ordered to prostrate before Adam, although He was not an Angel

When Allah commanded the angels to prostrate before Adam, Iblis was included in this command. Although Iblis was not an angel, he was trying – and pretending – to imitate the angels’ behavior and deeds, and this is why he was also included in the command to the angels to prostrate before Adam. Satan was criticized for defying that command, as we will explain with detail, Allah willing, when we mention the Tafsir of Allah’s statement,

the correct answer is keep your pledge to Me, and I will mine to you

 Reference: Surah Al-Baqarah 2: 40

Translation: O Children of Israel, remember My favor which I have bestowed upon you and fulfill My covenant [upon you] that I will fulfill your covenant [from Me], and be afraid of [only] Me.

Tafseer: O Children of Israel! Remember My favor which I bestowed upon you, and fulfill (your obligations to) My covenant (with you) so that I fulfill (My obligations to) your covenant (with Me), and fear none but Me. 41. And believe in what I have sent down (this Qur’an), confirming that which is with you (the Tawrah and the Injil), and be not the first to disbelieve therein, and buy not with My verses (the Tawrah and the Injil) a small price (i.e. getting a small gain by selling My verses), and fear Me and Me alone.

the correct answer is They were pardoned

Reference : Surah Al-Baqarah 2: 52

ثُمَّ عَفَوۡنَا عَنكُم مِّنۢ بَعۡدِ ذَٰلِكَ لَعَلَّكُمۡ تَشۡكُرُونَ

Translation: Then We forgave you after that so perhaps you would be grateful.

the correct answer is a Khalifah on earth 

Reference : Surah Al-Baqarah (2:31-32):

وَعَلَّمَ ءَادَمَ ٱلْأَسْمَآءَ كُلَّهَا ثُمَّ عَرَضَهُمْ عَلَى ٱلْمَلَـٰٓئِكَةِ فَقَالَ أَنبِـُٔونِى بِأَسْمَآءِ هَـٰٓؤُلَآءِ إِن كُنتُمْ صَـٰدِقِينَ (٣١) قَالُوا۟ سُبْحَـٰنَكَ لَا عِلْمَ لَنَآ إِلَّا مَا عَلَّمْتَنَآ إِنَّكَ أَنتَ ٱلْعَلِيمُ ٱلْحَكِيمُ (٣٢)

Translation: (2:31) And He taught Adam the names—all of them. Then He showed them to the angels and said, "Inform Me of the names of these, if you are truthful."
(2:32) They said, "Exalted are You; we have no knowledge except what You have taught us. Indeed, it is You who is the Knowing, the Wise."

Tafseer: In these verses, Allah demonstrates Adam's (A.S.) unique ability to learn and acquire knowledge, a gift not given to the angels. Allah taught Adam the names of all things, which refers to the knowledge of creation and its purposes. When the angels were asked to identify the names, they humbly acknowledged their limitations, declaring that their knowledge is only what Allah has taught them. This emphasizes Adam's (and humanity's) special status and capacity for learning, reasoning, and understanding, which sets humans apart from angels and other creations.

the correct answer is they will cause the corruption and shed blood

Reference Surah Al-Baqarah (2:30):

وَإِذْ قَالَ رَبُّكَ لِلْمَلَـٰٓئِكَةِ إِنِّى جَاعِلٌۭ فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ خَلِيفَةًۭ ۖ قَالُوٓا۟ أَتَجْعَلُ فِيهَا مَن يُفْسِدُ فِيهَا وَيَسْفِكُ ٱلدِّمَآءَ وَنَحْنُ نُسَبِّحُ بِحَمْدِكَ وَنُقَدِّسُ لَكَ ۖ قَالَ إِنِّىٓ أَعْلَمُ مَا لَا تَعْلَمُونَ (٣٠)

Translation: And [mention] when your Lord said to the angels, "Indeed, I will make upon the earth a successive authority." They said, "Will You place upon it one who causes corruption therein and sheds blood, while we declare Your praise and sanctify You?" He said, "Indeed, I know that which you do not know."

Tafseer: In this verse, Allah informs the angels about His plan to create a "khalifa" (vicegerent) on Earth, referring to Adam (A.S.) and later humanity. The angels, seeing the potential for humans to cause corruption and bloodshed, question the wisdom of this creation. They point out that they themselves are engaged in constant worship of Allah. However, Allah responds by reminding them that His knowledge encompasses far more than what they can understand. This highlights humanity's unique potential for both righteousness and sin, as well as their ability to repent, gain knowledge, and carry out Allah’s will on Earth.

the correct answer is his vast degree of knowledge what Allah SWT taught him 

Reference : Surah Al-Baqarah (2:31-32):

وَعَلَّمَ ءَادَمَ ٱلْأَسْمَآءَ كُلَّهَا ثُمَّ عَرَضَهُمْ عَلَى ٱلْمَلَـٰٓئِكَةِ فَقَالَ أَنبِـُٔونِى بِأَسْمَآءِ هَـٰٓؤُلَآءِ إِن كُنتُمْ صَـٰدِقِينَ (٣١) قَالُوا۟ سُبْحَـٰنَكَ لَا عِلْمَ لَنَآ إِلَّا مَا عَلَّمْتَنَآ إِنَّكَ أَنتَ ٱلْعَلِيمُ ٱلْحَكِيمُ (٣٢)

Translation: (2:31) And He taught Adam the names—all of them. Then He showed them to the angels and said, "Inform Me of the names of these, if you are truthful."
(2:32) They said, "Exalted are You; we have no knowledge except what You have taught us. Indeed, it is You who is the Knowing, the Wise."

Tafseer: In these verses, Allah demonstrates Adam's (A.S.) unique ability to learn and acquire knowledge, a gift not given to the angels. Allah taught Adam the names of all things, which refers to the knowledge of creation and its purposes. When the angels were asked to identify the names, they humbly acknowledged their limitations, declaring that their knowledge is only what Allah has taught them.
