وَإِذْ قُلْنَا لِلْمَلَـٰٓئِكَةِ ٱسْجُدُوا۟ لِـَٔادَمَ فَسَجَدُوٓا۟ إِلَّآ إِبْلِيسَ أَبَىٰ

Wa iz qulnaa lilma laaa'ikatis judoo li Aadama fasajadooo illaaa Iblees; abaa

When We said to the angels, ‘Bow down before Adam,’ they did. But Iblis refused,

And when we said to the angels, "Prostrate to Adam," they prostrated — all except Iblis; he refused.
