وَإِذْ
قُلْنَا
لِلْمَلَائِكَةِ
اسْجُدُوا
لِآدَمَ
فَسَجَدُوا
إِلَّا
إِبْلِيسَ
كَانَ
مِنَ
الْجِنِّ
فَفَسَقَ
عَنْ
أَمْرِ
رَبِّهِ
أَفَتَتَّخِذُونَهُ
وَذُرِّيَّتَهُ
أَوْلِيَاءَ
مِن
دُونِي
وَهُمْ
لَكُمْ
عَدُوٌّ
بِئْسَ
لِلظَّالِمِينَ
بَدَلًا

When We told the angels to prostrate before Adam they all obeyed except Iblis. He was a jinn and he sinned against the command of his Lord. Why do you (people) obey him and his offspring instead of Me, even though they are your enemies? How terrible will be the recompense that the wrong doers will receive!
