Behold! We said to the angels: "Bow down unto Adam": They bowed down except Iblis: He said, "Shall I bow down to one whom Thou didst create from clay?"

A. Yusuf Alipublic-domain

When We said to the angels, ‘Bow down before Adam,’ they all bowed down, but not Iblis. He retorted, ‘Why should I bow down to someone You have created out of clay?’

And when We said unto the angels: Fall down prostrate before Adam and they fell prostrate all save Iblis, he said: Shall I fall prostrate before that which Thou hast created of clay?

Hani meleklere “Âdem için (Allah’a) secde edin.” demiştik; onlar da hemen secde etmişlerdi. İblis hariç. (O) “Ben çamurdan yarattığın bir kişi için secde eder miyim hiç!” demişti.

واذكر قولنا للملائكة: اسجدوا لآدم تحية وتكريمًا، فسجدوا جميعًا إلا إبليس، استكبر وامتنع عن السجود قائلا على سبيل الإنكار والاستكبار: أأسجد لهذا الضعيف، المخلوق من الطين؟
