وَإِذۡ قُلۡنَا لِلۡمَلَٰٓئِكَةِ ٱسۡجُدُواْ لِأٓدَمَ فَسَجَدُوٓاْ إِلَّآ إِبۡلِيسَ أَبَىٰ وَٱسۡتَكۡبَرَ وَكَانَ مِنَ ٱلۡكَٰفِرِينَ [٣٤]
And [remember] when We said to the angels, “Prostrate before Adam[1],” so they prostrated, except Iblīs[2], who refused and was arrogant, and so became one of the disbelievers.
