Chapter 20, Page 320, Juz 16

116. When We said to the angels, “Prostrate yourselves to ’Ādam”. So, all of them fell prostrate, except Iblīs , who refused. 117. So, We said “’Ādam, this is an enemy to you and to your wife. So let him not expel you from Paradise, lest you should get into trouble. 118. Here you have the privilege that you will not be hungry nor will you be unclad, 119. and you will not be thirsty, nor will you be exposed to sun.” 120. Then the Satan instigated him. He said, “’Ādam, shall I guide you to the tree of eternity and to an empire that does not decay?” 121. So, both of them [Ādam and Hawwā’ (Eve)] ate from it, and their parts of shame were exposed to them, and they started stitching on themselves some of the leaves of Paradise. And ’Ādam disobeyed his Lord, and erred. 122. Thereafter his Lord chose him. So He accepted his repentance and gave (him) guidance. 123. He said (to ’Ādam and Iblīs), “Go down from here, all of you, some of you enemies of some others. Then, should some guidance come to you from Me, the one who follows My guidance shall not go astray, nor shall he be in trouble. 124. As for the one who turns away from My message, he shall have a straitened life, and We shall raise him blind on the Day of Judgment.” 125. He will say, “My Lord, why did you raise me blind while I was sighted?” 126. He will say, “In the similar manner as Our signs came to you, and you had ignored them. In the same way you will be ignored today.” 127. Thus We recompense him who exceeds the limits and does not believe in the signs of his Lord. Certainly the punishment of the Hereafter is more severe and more lasting. 128. Did it give them no guidance (to realize) how many generations We have destroyed prior to them in whose dwellings they (often) walk around? Surely, in this there are signs for the men of reason.
