wa-ʾidh qulnā li-l-malāʾikati sjudū li-ʾādama fa-sajadū ʾillā ʾiblīsa kāna mina l-jinni fa-fasaqa ʿan ʾamri rabbihī ʾa-fa-tattakhidhūnahū wa-dhurriyyatahū ʾawliyāʾa min dūnī wa-hum lakum ʿaduwwun biʾsa li-ẓ-ẓālimīna badalan

When We said to the angels, ‘Prostrate before Adam,’ they prostrated, but not Iblis. He was one of the jinn, so he transgressed against his Lord’s command. Will you then take him and his offspring for guardians in My stead, though they are your enemies? How evil a substitute for the wrongdoers!
