We created you, then We shaped you, then We said to the angels, "Bow down before Adam;" so they bowed down, except for Satan; he was not of those who bowed down.
He said, "What prevented you from bowing down when I have commanded you?" He said, "I am better than he; You created me from fire, and You created him from mud."
He said, "Get down from it! It is not for you to act arrogantly in it. Get out! You are one of the lowly!"
He said, "Give me respite, until the Day they are resurrected."
He said, "You are of those given respite."
He said, "Because you have lured me, I will waylay them on Your straight path.
Then I will come at them from before them, and from behind them, and from their right, and from their left; and you will not find most of them appreciative."
He said, "Get out of it, despised and vanquished. Whoever among them follows you—I will fill up Hell with you all.
And you, Adam, inhabit the Garden, you and your wife, and eat whatever you wish; but do not approach this tree, lest you become sinners."
But Satan whispered to them, to reveal to them their nakedness, which was invisible to them. He said, "Your Lord has only forbidden you this tree, lest you become angels, or become immortals."
