ʿAnāq bint Ādam (أناق/عَنّاق بنت آدم) is, in some varieties of Islamic theology, a daughter of Adam and Eve, sometimes even their first child.
A summary of the diverse traditions about ʿAnāq is provided by Roberto Tottoli: According to some reports ʿAnāq was born alone, with no twin brother, or, in other reports, she was Cain's sister, and he, after killing Abel, brought her to Yemen, where he married her[1] ... She was said to be the first one to commit fornication and to act badly on earth and because of this she was later killed.
The name ʿAnāq is usually employed in connection with the story of her son ʿŪj, the giant who survived the Flood and was later killed by Moses.
However, her name can also be understood to mean ‘misfortune’ or ‘calamity’ or to evoke the word ʿināq (‘embrace’).
So We killed her, and thus Allah has killed the tyrants when they were in their best condition and secure in their positions.The role of ʿAnāq in Islamicate traditions can be seen as similar to that of Lilith in Judaeo-Christian traditions, providing a monstrous female near the very beginning of human existence, through whom misogynistic ideology can be conveyed.
