إِذۡ قَالَ رَبُّكَ لِلۡمَلَٰٓئِكَةِ إِنِّي خَٰلِقُۢ بَشَرٗا مِّن طِينٖ 71

71        (Remember) when your Cre-ator said to the angels: “Indeed, I am going to create a man from clay.”

فَإِذَا سَوَّيۡتُهُۥ وَنَفَخۡتُ فِيهِ مِن رُّوحِي فَقَعُواْ لَهُۥ سَٰجِدِينَ 72

72        “So when I have completed all the parts of his body, and breathed into him (his) soul created by Me, then you fall down prostrate to him.”

فَسَجَدَ ٱلۡمَلَٰٓئِكَةُ كُلُّهُمۡ أَجۡمَعُونَ 73

73        So all the angels prostrated themselves,

إِلَّآ إِبۡلِيسَ ٱسۡتَكۡبَرَ وَكَانَ مِنَ ٱلۡكَٰفِرِينَ 74

74        Except Satan, he was arrogant and was one of the disbelievers.

قَالَ يَٰٓإِبۡلِيسُ مَا مَنَعَكَ أَن تَسۡجُدَ لِمَا خَلَقۡتُ بِيَدَيَّۖ أَسۡتَكۡبَرۡتَ أَمۡ كُنتَ مِنَ ٱلۡعَالِينَ 75

75        Allah said: “O Satan! What stopped you from prostrating your-self to one whom I have created with My hands (although Allah has created everything, but it was to indicate the esteemed level for man)? Were you too proud of yourself or did you consider yourself one of the highly exalted?”

قَالَ أَنَا۠ خَيۡرٞ مِّنۡهُ خَلَقۡتَنِي مِن نَّارٖ وَخَلَقۡتَهُۥ مِن طِينٖ 76

76        Satan said: “I am better than him. You created me from the fire and You created him from clay.”

قَالَ فَٱخۡرُجۡ مِنۡهَا فَإِنَّكَ رَجِيمٞ 77

77        Allah said: “Get out from here (the heavens) for, indeed, you are outcast.”

وَإِنَّ عَلَيۡكَ لَعۡنَتِيٓ إِلَىٰ يَوۡمِ ٱلدِّينِ 78

78        Allah said: “Get out from here (the heavens) for, indeed, you are outcast.”

قَالَ رَبِّ فَأَنظِرۡنِيٓ إِلَىٰ يَوۡمِ يُبۡعَثُونَ 79

79        Satan said: “[Since I have become an outcast due to Adam ( peace be upon him )]. My Creator! So delay (my death) until the Day of Judgement (so that I can take revenge from Adam ( peace be upon him ) and his children).”

قَالَ فَإِنَّكَ مِنَ ٱلۡمُنظَرِينَ 80

80        (Allah) said: “So you are, indeed, from those who are granted delay,

إِلَىٰ يَوۡمِ ٱلۡوَقۡتِ ٱلۡمَعۡلُومِ 81

81        Till the Day of the appointed time.”

قَالَ فَبِعِزَّتِكَ لَأُغۡوِيَنَّهُمۡ أَجۡمَعِينَ 82

82        (Satan) said: “(Since I am granted this delay). So by Your Might, I shall mislead them all,

إِلَّا عِبَادَكَ مِنۡهُمُ ٱلۡمُخۡلَصِينَ 83

83        Except your chosen slaves among them (whom You have saved from my influence).”

قَالَ فَٱلۡحَقُّ وَٱلۡحَقَّ أَقُولُ 84

84        (Allah) said: “The Truth is that I always speak the Truth.”

لَأَمۡلَأَنَّ جَهَنَّمَ مِنكَ وَمِمَّن تَبِعَكَ مِنۡهُمۡ أَجۡمَعِينَ 85

85        “I will fill Hell with you (i.e. Satan) and with all those who follow you from them.”

قُلۡ مَآ أَسۡ‍َٔلُكُمۡ عَلَيۡهِ مِنۡ أَجۡرٖ وَمَآ أَنَا۠ مِنَ ٱلۡمُتَكَلِّفِينَ 86

86        [O Muhammad (may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him)!] Say: “I don’t ask you any reward (regarding the message of the Quran), nor am I from one of those who fabricate things on behalf of Allah and then convey those to others.”

إِنۡ هُوَ إِلَّا ذِكۡرٞ لِّلۡعَٰلَمِينَ 87

87        “Indeed, it (the Quran) is only a reminder for mankind and jinn.”

وَلَتَعۡلَمُنَّ نَبَأَهُۥ بَعۡدَ حِينِۢ 88

88        “And you shall certainly come to know the truth (of the message of the Quran) after a short while (i.e. in Badr, or on your death).”

تَنزِيلُ ٱلۡكِتَٰبِ مِنَ ٱللَّهِ ٱلۡعَزِيزِ ٱلۡحَكِيمِ 1

1        (This) Book (the Quran) is revealed to you from Allah, the All-Mighty, the All-Wise.

إِنَّآ أَنزَلۡنَآ إِلَيۡكَ ٱلۡكِتَٰبَ بِٱلۡحَقِّ فَٱعۡبُدِ ٱللَّهَ مُخۡلِصٗا لَّهُ ٱلدِّينَ 2

2        [O Muhammad (may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him)!] Indeed, We have sent this Book to you in truth. So worship Allah (Alone) by performing your religious practices sincerely for Him only.
