Chapter 15, Page 263, Juz 14

26. We created man out of dried clay formed from dark mud- 27. the jinn We created before, from the fire of scorching wind. 28. Your Lord said to the angels, ‘I will create a mortal out of dried clay, formed from dark mud. 29. When I have fashioned him and breathed My spirit into him, bow down before him,’ 30. and the angels all did so. 31. But not Iblis: he refused to bow down like the others. 32. God said, ‘Iblis, why did you not bow down like the others?’ 33. and he answered, ‘I will not bow to a mortal You created from dried clay, formed from dark mud.’ 34. ‘Get out of here!’ said God. ‘You are an outcast, 35. rejected until the Day of Judgement.’ 36. Iblis said, ‘My Lord, give me respite until the Day when they are raised from the dead.’ 37. ‘You have respite,’ said God, 38. ‘until the Day of the Appointed Time.’ 39. Iblis then said to God, ‘Because You have put me in the wrong, I will lure mankind on earth and put them in the wrong, 40. all except Your devoted servants.’ 41. God said, ‘[Devotion] is a straight path to Me: 42. you will have no power over My servants, only over the ones who go astray and follow you. 43. Hell is the promised place for all these, 44. with seven gates, each gate having its allotted share of them.
