We said to the angels, "Bow down to Adam." So they bowed down, except for Satan. He was of the jinn, and he defied the command of his Lord. Will you take him and his offspring as lords instead of Me, when they are an enemy to you? Evil is the exchange for the wrongdoers.
Is Iblis (Satan) an angel or a jinn in the Qur'an?
Key findingsEditorial
One finding for each passage this study carries, in the order the study reads them. Each is the reason that passage was signed into the study, in full and unedited - including, where the renderings disagree, the disagreement.
- 01 18:50 And when We said unto the angels: fall prostrate before Adam, and they fell prostrate, all save Iblis. HE WAS OF THE JINN, so he rebelled against his Lord's command. In because it is the ONE verse that states his kind outright, and it does so in the middle of a sentence about the angels. ALSO CARRIED by the signed batch-3 study jinn, with a different reason there.
- 02 2:34 And when We said unto the angels: prostrate yourselves before Adam - they fell prostrate ALL SAVE IBLIS. He demurred through pride and so became a disbeliever. In because it is the standard form of the scene, and the grammar of 'all save Iblis' is exactly what makes the question live.
- 03 7:11–12 And We told the angels: fall ye prostrate before Adam. And they fell prostrate, all save Iblis. He said: I am better than him; Thou createdst me of fire while him Thou didst create of mud. In as ONE PASSAGE because his own account of his origin - FIRE - is the second piece of evidence about his kind, and it is his own testimony.
- 04 38:74–76 Saving Iblis; he was scornful and became one of the disbelievers. He said: O Iblis, what hindereth thee from falling prostrate before that which I have created with both My hands? Art thou too proud, or art thou of the high exalted? He said: I am better than him; Thou createdst me of fire, whilst him Thou didst create of clay. In as ONE PASSAGE because the question put to him and his answer are one exchange, and because 'art thou of the high exalted' is the text raising his rank as a possibility.
- 05 15:31–33 Save Iblis; he refused to be among the prostrate. He said: O Iblis, what aileth thee that thou art not among the prostrate? He said: I am not one to prostrate myself unto a mortal whom Thou hast created out of potter's clay of black mud altered. In as ONE PASSAGE because it is the third telling of the same refusal, and the repetition across surahs is the shape of the evidence.
In plain wordsEditorial written by the editors, not a translation
One verse answers the question and the rest of the text makes the answer awkward. Both facts belong in the study.
18:50 says it outright: HE WAS OF THE JINN. All four translators carry it, and it is the only statement of his kind anywhere in the Qur'an.
What makes it awkward is where it sits. In every telling of the scene - 2:34, 7:11, 15:31, 17:61, 20:116, 38:74 - the command is given TO THE ANGELS, and the exception is phrased ALL SAVE IBLIS. Read naturally in English, that grammar puts him inside the group being addressed. The text repeats the construction six times and only once steps outside it to say he was of the jinn.
His own testimony supplies the second piece of evidence and points the same way as 18:50. Twice - 7:12 and 38:76 - he says: THOU CREATEDST ME OF FIRE, and him of clay. The jinn are elsewhere associated with fire; the angels are not described this way.
38:75 adds a line worth noticing, because it is God putting the question: art thou too proud, OR ART THOU OF THE HIGH EXALTED? The text itself raises his rank as an open question rather than assuming it.
So: the Qur'an says once that he was of the jinn, gives an origin in fire that fits that, and otherwise narrates him as the exception within a command to angels. Whether he was an angel who fell, a jinn present among them, or something the categories do not cleanly fit is a question the tradition argued at length - and settling it needs the commentators, none of whom has cleared the rights audit.
Scope of this study
This platform shows the verse, its easy-read line, its translations, a plain-words reading, and each verse among its neighbours. It does not supply occasion of revelation, interpretation (tafsir) or history, and it never invents them.
What this study does not answer, and which source would be needed. It does not say on what occasion any of these verses was given: this study holds no source whose usage rights can be verified. It does not report how any commentator has read them: this study holds no either - the Arabic of , and is public domain by age, but no English edition with verifiable usage rights exists. And it offers no academic-historical reading: this study holds no such scholarship. Each of those is an absence with a named cause, not an omission.
What this rests on
Opens with 18:50, widening across 5 passages in all.
Easy-read is a simplified pronunciation, not authoritative — a rule-by-rule romanisation, not a reading. Each verse ends in its pause form, as it is said when you stop there. Pauses inside a verse and other tajwid rules are not shown. It is derived from the Tanzil Simple edition, while the Arabic above is the Uthmani edition; both are cleared, but they are not the same edition and their orthography differs.

And (remember) when We said unto the angels: Fall prostrate before Adam, and they fell prostrate, all save Iblis. He was of the jinn, so he rebelled against his Lord's command. Will ye choose him and his seed for your protecting friends instead of Me, when they are an enemy unto you? Calamitous is the exchange for evil-doers
And when we said to the angels, ' Adore Adam,' they adored him, save only Iblis, who was of the ginn, who revolted from the bidding of his Lord. 'What! will ye then take him and his seed as patrons, rather than me, when they are foes of yours? bad for the wrong-doers is the exchange

Kur u thamë melekëve: "Bjerini në sexhde Ademit!" Të gjithë ranë në sexhde, përveç Iblisit, i cili ishte nga xhinët dhe nuk iu bind urdhrit të Zotit të vet. Vallë, a do ta merrni atë dhe pasardhësit e tij për mbrojtës në vend Timin, ndërkohë që ata janë armiqtë tuaj?! Sa këmbim i shëmtuar që është ky për të padrejtët!
আর (হে রাসূল! স্মরণ করো সেদিনের কথা) যখন আমি ফিরিশতাদের বলেছিলাম, তোমরা আদমকে (সম্মানার্থে) সাজদা করো। অতঃপর তারা সাজদা করলো, ইবলীস ছাড়া। সে ছিল জিনদের একজন। সে তার রবের নির্দেশ অমান্য করলো। তোমরা কি তাকে ও তার বংশকে আমার পরিবর্তে অভিভাবক হিসেবে গ্রহণ করবে, অথচ তারা তোমাদের শত্রু? যালিমদের জন্য কী নিকৃষ্ট বিনিময়!(১৯)
A kad smo rekli melekima: “Poklonite se Ademu!”, svi su se poklonili osim Iblisa, on je bio jedan od džina i zato se ogriješio o zapovijest Gospodara svog. Pa zar ćete njega i porod njegov, pored Mene, kao prijatelje prihvatiti, kad su vam oni neprijatelji? Kako je šejtan loša zamjena nevjernicima!
A kad smo rekli anđelima: “Poklonite se Adamu!” svi su se poklonili osim Iblisa, on je bio jedan od džina i zato se ogriješio o zapovijest Gospodara svog. Pa zar ćete njega i porod njegov, pored Mene, kao prijatelje prihvatiti, kad su vam oni neprijatelji? Kako je sotona loša zamjena nevjernicima!
Tuma nde Min mb'annoo maleykaaji: "cujjanee Aadama, ɓe cujji si wonaa Ibliisa o laatike jeyaaɗo e jinnaaji ɗin o yalti e Yamiroore Joomi makko. E on jogitoto mo e ɓiɗɓe makko ɓen yiɗɓe ga Am, hara kamɓe ko ɓe añɓe mo'on, bonanii tooñooɓe ɓe battudi.
და აი, ჩვენ ვუთხარით ანგელოზებს: «პირქვე დაემხეთ (საჯდაზე) ადამის წინაშე (მისდამი პატივისცემის გამოსახატავად და მისი უპირატესობის საჩვენებლად)!» მათ ყველამ გააკეთეს საჯდა, გარდა იბლისისა. იგი ჯინთაგანი იყო და თავისი უფლის ბრძანებას ეურჩა. ნუთუ თქვენ (ო, ადამიანებო) აირჩევთ მას [იბლისს] და მის შთამომავლობას თქვენს მფარველებად ჩემს ნაცვლად, მაშინ როცა ისინი თქვენი მტრები არიან? რა ცუდი გაცვლაა უსამართლოთათვის (ალლაჰისადმი მორჩილების შეცვლა სატანისადმი მორჩილებით!).
Und (gedenke) als Wir zu den Engeln sagten: „Werft euch vor Adam nieder.“ Da warfen sie sich nieder, außer Iblis. Er gehörte zu den Jinn und frevelte gegen den Befehl seines Herrn. Wollt ihr euch denn ihn und seine Nachkommenschaft zu Schutzherren anstatt Meiner nehmen, wo sie euch doch feind sind? Welch schlimmer Tausch für die Ungerechten!
Και (ανάφερε, ω, Προφήτη) όταν είπαμε στους Αγγέλους, «Πέστε σε Σιτζούντ στάση (με τις παλάμες και τα μέτωπα στο έδαφος) ενώπιον του Αδάμ (ως χαιρετισμό και τιμή προς αυτόν, και όχι λατρεία).», έτσι έπεσαν όλοι σε Σιτζούντ στάση εκτός από τον Ιμπλίς, ο οποίος ήταν τζινν (και όχι Άγγελος), και έτσι παράκουσε την εντολή του Κυρίου του. Θα πάρετε λοιπόν (ω, άνθρωποι) αυτόν και τους απογόνους του ως κηδεμόνες (που θα τους υπακούτε) αντί Εμένα, παρόλο που είναι εχθροί σας; Τι άθλιο είναι αυτό για τους άδικους (ότι παίρνουν την υπακοή προς τον Ιμπλίς) ως αντάλλαγμα (της υπακοής προς Εμένα)!
तथा (याद करो) जब हमने फ़रिश्तों से कहा : आदम को सजदा करो। तो इबलीस के सिवा सबने सजदा किया। वह जिन्नों में से था। अतः उसने अपने पालनहार के आदेश का उल्लंघन किया। क्या फिर (भी) तुम उसे और उसकी संतान को मुझे छोड़कर मित्र बनाते हो, जबकि वे तुम्हारे शत्रु हैं? वह (शैतान) अत्याचारियों के लिए क्या ही बुरा बदल (विकल्प) है।
E quando abbiamo detto agli angeli: «Prosternatevi ad Ǣdem (لِأٓدَمَ)», si prosternarono tutti tranne Iblīs. Era tra i demoni, così disobbedì all’ordine del suo Dio. Forse volete prendere lui e i suoi figli come protettori all’infuori di Me, anche se sono vostri nemici? Oh, che infausto scambio sarebbe in verità per gli ingiusti!
50. Ir (atmink), kai Mes sakėme angelams: „Nusižeminkite Adomui.“ Taigi jie nusižemino, išskyrus Iblis (Šėtoną). Jis buvo vienas iš džinų. Jis nepakluso savo Viešpaties Įsakymui. Ar tu tada laikysi jį (Iblis) ir jo palikuonis globėjais ir padėjėjais, o ne Mane, kai jie yra priešai tau? Koks blogas pakaitalas Zalimūn (daugiadieviams ir bloga darantiesiems).
Yeroo maleeykotaan “Aadamiif sujuuda godhaa” jenne (yaadadhu), Ibliis malee sujuuda godhan, (inni) jinnii irraa ta’ee ajaja Gooftaa isaa irraa fincile. Sila Ana dhiiftanii isaafi sanyii isaa jaalallee godhattanii? isaan isiniif diinoota. (Ibliis) miidhaa raawwattootaaf jijjiirraa ta’uun waa fokkate! [17]
И вот Мы сказали ангелам: «Падите ниц пред Адамом!» — и они пали ниц, кроме Иблиса: он был из джиннов и вышел из повиновения повелению своего Господа. Неужели вы возьмёте его и его потомство покровителями помимо Меня, а они — враги вам? Скверная замена для несправедливых!
И када смо рекли анђелима: „Поклоните се Адаму!“ Сви су се поклонули осим Сотоне, он је био један од духова, па је одбио послушност на заповест свог Господара. Па зар ћете њега и његов пород, поред Мене, као заштитнике да прихватите, кад су вам они непријатељи? Како је Сотона лоша замена неверницима!
Na tulipowaambia Malaika: Msujudieni Adam! Wakamsjudia isipokuwa Iblisi. Yeye alikuwa miongoni mwa majini, na akavunja amri ya Mola wake Mlezi. Je, mnamchukua yeye na dhuria yake kuwa vipenzi badala yangu, hali wao ni adui zenu? Ni ovu mno badala hii ya madhalimu.
Berätta om hur vi sa till änglarna: ”Fall ned inför Adam!” Då föll alla ned utom Iblīs, en av jinnerna. Ja, han trotsade sin Herres befallning. Ska ni verkligen lyda honom och hans avkomma, i stället för mig, trots att de är era fiender? I så fall har dessa orättfärdiga människor gjort ett uselt byte!
Hani biz meleklere: “Âdem için (selamlamak için) secde edin!” demiştik de İblis’ten başka hepsi secde etmişlerdi. İblis ise cinlerdendi de Rabbinin emri dışına çıktı. Şimdi siz, beni bırakıp da İblis’i ve neslini, kendinize dostlar mı ediniyorsunuz? Hâlbuki onlar, sizin için birer düşmandırlar. Bu, zalimler için ne kötü bir bedeldir!

Nde Min mbi'i malaykaaɓe ɓee cujjanee Aadama ɓe cujji so wonaa Ibliisa o salii o mawnikinii ndeen o jeyaa e yedduɓe.
და აი, ვუთხარით ჩვენ ანგელოზებს: «დაემხეთ პირქვე (საჯდაზე) ადამის წინაშე[1] (რათა ამით პატივი მიაგოთ მას და აჩვენოთ მისი აღმატებულობა!)» და დაემხნენ საჯდაზე ისინი [ყველა ანგელოზი], გარდა იბლისისა, (რომელმაც) (შურის გამო) უარი თქვა და ქედმაღლობა გამოავლინა, და აღმოჩნდა ურწმუნოთა შორის (ალლაჰისადმი დაუმორჩილებლობის გამო).
Und als Wir zu den Engeln sagten: „Werft euch vor Adam nieder!“ Da warfen sie sich nieder, außer Iblis; er weigerte sich, verhielt sich hochmütig und gehörte zu den Ungläubigen.
Και (ανάφερε, ω, Μωχάμμαντ) όταν είπαμε στους αγγέλους, «Πέστε σε Σουτζούντ στάση (δηλ. με το μέτωπο και τις παλάμες στο έδαφος) ενώπιον του Αδάμ (ως σεβασμό και τιμή προς αυτόν).» Και έτσι, έπεσαν όλοι σε Σουτζούντ στάση, εκτός από τον Ιμπλίς (-τον Σατανά- που ήταν από τα τζινν), αρνήθηκε και έγινε αλαζόνας, και έτσι έγινε ένας από τους άπιστους.
और जब हमने फ़रिश्तों से कहा : आदम को सजदा करो, तो उन्होंने सजदा किया सिवाय इबलीस के। उसने इनकार किया और अभिमान किया और काफ़िरों में से हो गया।
E Noi dicemmo agli Angeli: «Prosternatevi a Ǣdem ( آدَم )!» Tutti si prosternarono, tranne Iblīs إِبْلِيسَ, che si insuperbì e fu tra i miscredenti.
34. Ir (atminkite), kai Mes tarėme angelams: „Pulkite kniūbsčiomis priešais Adamą (Adomą).“ Ir jie puolė kniūbsčiomis, išskyrus Iblisą (Šėtoną). Jis atsisakė ir parodė išdidumą, ir buvo vienas netikinčiųjų (nepaklusęs Allahui).
Yeroo Nuti malaa’ikootaan "Aadamiif sujuuda godhaa" jenne (yaadadhu). Ibliis malee Isaan sujuuda godhan; (Inni) ni dide; ni boones, Kaafiroota irraa ta’e. [13]
И вот Мы сказали ангелам: «Падите ниц пред Адамом!» — и они пали ниц, кроме Иблиса: он отказался, превознёсся и был из отвергших веру.
А кад рекосмо анђелима: "Поклоните се Адаму! Они се поклонише сви изузев Сотоне." Он одби и узохоли се, а био је неверник.
Na tulipowaambia Malaika: 'Msujudieni Adam', wakamsujudia wote isipokuwa Iblis, alikataa na akajivuna na akawa katika makafiri.
Och minns när vi sa till änglarna: ”Fall ner inför Adam!” Då gjorde de det, alla utom Iblīs. Han vägrade, visade högmod och blev en av de otrogna.
Hani Meleklere: "Âdem'e (saygı ve hürmet için) secde edin!" demiştik de İblis hariç bütün melekler hemen secde edivermişlerdi. İblis bundan kaçınmış, büyüklenmiş ve kâfirlerden olmuştu.

7:11 Ne ju krijuam e pastaj ju dhamë formën tuaj, mandej u thamë melekëve: "Bjerini në sexhde Ademit!" Të gjithë ranë në sexhde, përveç Iblisit. Ai nuk qe nga ata që bënë sexhde.
7:12 Allahu tha: "Ç'të pengoi të bëje sexhde kur të urdhërova?" Ai tha: "Unë jam më i mirë se ai; mua më krijove prej zjarrit, kurse atë e krijove prej baltës."
7:11 আর অবশ্যই আমি (আল্লাহ) তোমাদেরকে (তোমাদের আদি পিতা আদমকে) সৃষ্টি করেছি। তারপর তোমাদের আকৃতি দিয়েছি। তারপর ফিরিশতাদেরকে বলেছি: ‘তোমরা আদমকে সাজদা করো।’ অতঃপর তারা সকলেই সাজদা করল ইবলিস ছাড়া। সে (অহংকার ও হঠকারিতাবশত) সাজদাকারীদের অন্তর্ভুক্ত ছিল না।
7:12 তিনি বললেন, (হে ইবলিস!) আমি যখন তোমাকে আদেশ করেছিলাম, তখন সাজদা করতে তোমাকে কিসে বাধা দিল? সে বলল, আমি তার চেয়ে উত্তম। আপনি আমাকে আগুন থেকে সৃষ্টি করেছেন আর তাকে সৃষ্টি করেছেন কাদামাটি থেকে।
7:11 Mi smo vas stvorili i onda vam oblik dali, a poslije melekima rekli: "Sedždu Ademu učinite!" Pa svi sedždu učiniše, osim Iblisa, on nije bio među onim koji na sedždu padoše!
7:12 "Šta te je navelo pa da ničice ne padneš kad sam ti naredio?", upita On. "Ja sam bolji od njega; mene si od vatre stvorio, a njega od ilovače", odgovori.
7:11 Mi smo vas stvorili i onda vam oblik dali, a poslije anđelima rekli: "Poklonite se Adamu!" Pa se svi pokloniše, osim Iblisa, on nije bio među onim koji su se poklonili!
7:12 "Što te je navelo pa da ničice ne padneš kad sam ti naredio?" upita On. "Ja sam bolji od njega; mene si od vatre stvorio, a njega od ilovače" odgovori.

7:12 მან [ალლაჰმა] უთხრა (იბლისს): «რამ შეგაკავა შენ იმისგან, რომ დამხობილიყავი, როცა მე გიბრძანე?» მან [იბლისმა] თქვა: «მე უკეთესი ვარ მასზე (ქმნილებით): შენ მე შემქმენი ცეცხლისგან, ხოლო იგი შექმენი თიხისგან».
7:11 Und Wir haben euch bereits erschaffen. Hierauf haben Wir euch gestaltet und daraufhin haben Wir zu den Engeln gesagt: „Werft euch vor Adam nieder!“ So warfen sie sich nieder, außer Iblis, der nicht zu den Sich-Niederwerfenden gehörte.
7:12 Er (also Allah) sagte: „Was hat dich davon abgehalten, dich niederzuwerfen, als Ich (es) dir anordnete?“ Er (also Iblis) sagte: „Ich bin besser als er. Du hast mich aus Feuer erschaffen, ihn aber hast Du aus Lehm erschaffen.“
7:11 Πράγματι, σας δημιουργήσαμε, έπειτα σας διαμορφώσαμε, και έπειτα είπαμε στους αγγέλους: «Πέστε σε Σουτζούντ στάση (δηλ. με το μέτωπο και τις παλάμες στο έδαφος) ενώπιον του Αδάμ (ως σεβασμό και τιμή προς αυτόν).» Και έτσι, έπεσαν όλοι σε Σουτζούντ στάση, εκτός από τον Ιμπλίς (-τον Σατανά- που ήταν από τα τζινν, ο οποίος αρνήθηκε και) δεν ήταν απ' αυτούς που έπεσαν σε Σουτζούντ στάση.
7:12 Είπε (ο Αλλάχ στον Ιμπλίς -Σατανά-): «Τι σε εμπόδισε να πέσεις σε Σουτζούντ στάση όταν σε διέταξα;» Είπε: «Είμαι καλύτερος απ' αυτόν. Με δημιούργησες από φωτιά ενώ αυτόν τον δημιούργησες από πηλό.»
7:11 और निःसंदेह हमने तुम्हें पैदा किया[5], फिर तुम्हारा रूप बनाया, फिर फ़रिश्तों से कहा कि आदम को सजदा करो। तो उन्होंने सजदा किया, सिवाय इबलीस के। वह सदजा करने वालों में से न हुआ।
7:12 (अल्लाह ने) कहा : जब मैंने तुझे आदेश दिया था तो तुझे किस बात ने सजदा करने से रोका? उसने कहा : मैं उससे अच्छा हूँ। तूने मुझे आग से पैदा किया है और तूने उसे मिट्टी से बनाया है।
7:11 E vi abbiamo creati, poi modellati; poi abbiamo detto agli angeli: “Prosternatevi ad Ǣdem ( آدَم )!” Si prosternarono tutti tranne Iblīs, che non fu tra i prosternati.
7:12 Disse: «Che cosa ti ha impedito di prosternarti, dato che te l’ho ordinato?» Disse: «Io sono migliore di lui! Mi hai creato dal fuoco, e hai creato lui da pura argilla!»
7:11 11. Ir tikrai, Mes sukūrėme jus (jūsų tėvą Adamą (Adomą) ir tada suteikėme jums formą (gražią žmogaus formą), tada Mes tarėme angelams: „Nusilenkite Adamui (Adomui).“ ir jie nusilenkė, išskyrus Iblisą (Šėtoną) – jis atsisakė būti iš tų, kurie nusilenkia.
7:12 12. (Allahas) tarė: „Kas sukliudė tau (Iblisai) nusilenkti, kai Aš tau liepiau?“ Iblis atsakė: „Aš esu geresnis nei jis (Adamas (Adomas), Tu sukūrei mane iš ugnies, o jį Tu sukūrei iš molio.“

7:11 Действительно, Мы сотворили вас, затем придали вам облик, затем сказали ангелам: «Падите ниц пред Адамом» — и они пали ниц, кроме Иблиса: он не был среди преклонившихся ниц.
7:12 [Аллах] сказал: «Что удержало тебя от того, чтобы пасть ниц, когда Я повелел тебе?» [Иблис] сказал: «Я лучше, чем он: Ты сотворил меня из огня, а его сотворил из глины».
7:11 Ми смо вас створили и онда вам облик дали, а после смо анђелима казали: „Поклоните се Адаму!“ Па се сви поклонише, осим Сотоне, он није био међу онима који су се поклонили!
7:12 „Шта те је навело да се не поклониш кад сам ти наредио?“ Упита Он. „Ја сам бољи од њега; мене си створио од ватре, а њега од иловаче.“ Одговори.
7:11 Na hakika tuliwaumba, kisha tukawatia sura, kisha tukawaambia Malaika, "Msujudieni Adam." Basi wakasujudu isipokuwa Iblisi, hakuwa miongoni mwa waliosujudu.
7:12 (Mwenyezi Mungu) akasema, "Ni nini kilichokuzuia kusujudu nilipokuamrisha?" Akasema, "Mimi ni bora zaidi kumliko yeye. Uliniumba kwa moto, naye ulimuumba kwa udongo."
7:11 Vi skapade er och formade er och därefter sa vi till änglarna: ”Fall ned inför Adam!” Och de föll alla ned, utom Iblīs; han hörde inte till de som föll ned.
7:12 [Gud] sa: ”Vad hindrade dig från att falla ned när jag beordrade dig?” Han svarade: ”Jag är bättre än han; du skapade mig av eld, och du skapade honom av lera!”
7:11 Andolsun sizi yarattık, ardından da şekil verdik. Sonra meleklere: “Âdem’e secde edin.” dedik. İblis dışında hepsi secde ettiler. O ise, secde edenlerden olmadı.
7:12 Allah: “Sana emrettiğim zaman, secde etmene ne engel oldu?” dedi. İblis: “Ben, ondan daha hayırlıyım. Beni ateşten, onu ise çamurdan yarattın.” dedi.
7:11 اور ہم نے تم کو پیدا کیا[1] ، پھر ہم ہی نے تمہاری صورت بنائی پھر ہم نے فرشتوں سے کہا کہ آدم کو سجده کرو سو سب نے سجده کیا بجز ابلیس کے، وه سجده کرنے والوں میں شامل نہ ہوا۔
7:12 حق تعالیٰ نے فرمایا تو جو سجده نہیں کرتا تو تجھ کو اس سے کون امر مانع ہے[1] ، جبکہ میں تجھ کو حکم دے چکا، کہنے لگا میں اس سے بہتر ہوں، آپ نے مجھ کو آگ سے پیدا کیا ہے اور اس کو آپ نے خاک سے پیدا کیا ہے۔[2]

38:74 përveç Iblisit, i cili u tregua mendjemadh dhe u bë jobesimtar.
38:75 Allahu tha: "O Iblis, çfarë të pengoi t'i bësh sexhde atij që e krijova me dy duart e Mia? A u tregove mendjemadh apo ishe gjithnjë kryepërpjetë?"
38:76 Ai tha: "Unë jam më i mirë se ai; mua më krijove prej zjarrit, kurse atë e krijove prej baltës."
38:74 ইবলীস (শয়তান) ছাড়া, সে অহংকার করল এবং কাফিরদের অন্তর্ভুক্ত হয়ে পড়ল।
38:75 আল্লাহ বললেন: ‘হে ইবলীস, আমি আমার দু’হাতে যাকে (আদমকে) সৃষ্টি করেছি তার প্রতি সাজদাবনত হতে কিসে তোমাকে বাধা দিল? তুমি কি অহংকার করলে, না তুমি অধিকতর উচ্চ মর্যাদাসম্পন্ন?’
38:76 ইবলীস বলল: ‘আমি তার চেয়ে শ্রেষ্ঠ। আপনি আমাকে সৃষ্টি করেছেন আগুন থেকে আর তাকে সৃষ্টি করেছেন মাটি থেকে।’(৩১)
38:74 osim Iblisa – on se uzoholio i postao nevjernik.

38:74 გარდა იბლისისა — მან გამოავლინა ამპარტავნება და აღმოჩნდა ურწმუნოთა შორის (ალლაჰის დაუმორჩილებლობის გამო).
38:75 უთხრა [ალლაჰმა]: «ო, იბლის! რამ შეგიშალა ხელი, რომ დამხობილიყავი მის წინაშე, ვინც მე ჩემი ხელებით შევქმენი? ნუთუ ამპარტავნებით აივსე (ო, იბლის) (ადამის წინაშე) თუ იყავი ამაღლებულთაგანი (შენი უფლის წინაშე)?!»
38:76 თქვა [იბლისმა]: «მე უკეთესი ვარ მასზე [ადამზე]: შენ ხომ ცეცხლისგან შემქმენი, ხოლო ის - თიხისგან შექმენი».
38:74 außer Iblis; er verhielt sich hochmütig und gehörte zu den Ungläubigen.
38:75 Er (also Allah) sagte: „O Iblis, was hat dich davon abgehalten, dich vor dem niederzuwerfen, was Ich mit Meinen beiden Händen erschaffen habe? Verhältst du dich hochmütig, oder gehörst du etwa zu den Überheblichen?“
38:76 Er sagte: „Ich bin besser als er. Mich hast Du aus Feuer erschaffen, ihn dagegen hast Du aus Lehm erschaffen.“
38:74 εκτός από τον Ιμπλίς (-τον Σατανά- που ήταν τζινν), (αρνήθηκε και) έγινε αλαζόνας, και έτσι έγινε από τους άπιστους.
38:75 (Ο Αλλάχ) είπε (ως επίπληξη): «Ω, Ιμπλίς (Σατανά)! Τι σε εμπόδισε να πέσεις σε Σιτζούντ στάση (με το μέτωπο ως χαιρετισμός και τιμή) γι' αυτόν που τον δημιούργησα με τα Χέρια Μου; Έγινες αλαζόνας τότε (και σε εμπόδισε η αλαζονεία απ' αυτό) ή ήσουν ήδη από τους αλαζόνες (πριν απ' αυτό);»
38:76 (Ο Σατανάς) είπε: «Είμαι καλύτερος απ' αυτόν, με δημιούργησες από φωτιά ενώ τον δημιούργησες από πηλό.»
38:74 सिवाय इबलीस के। उसने अभिमान किया और काफ़िरों में से हो गया।
38:75 (अल्लाह ने) कहा : ऐ इबलीस! तूझे किस चीज़ ने रोका कि तू उसके लिए सजदा करे जिसे मैंने अपने दोनों हाथों से बनाया? क्या तू बड़ा बन गया, या तू था ही ऊँचे लोगों में से?
38:76 उसने कहा : मैं उससे बेहतर हूँ। तूने मुझे आग से पैदा किया और उसे मिट्टी से पैदा किया।
38:74 tranne Iblīs, che s’insuperbì e fu tra i miscredenti.
38:75 Disse: «O Iblīs! Cosa ti ha impedito di prosternarti davanti a chi ho creato con le Mie mani? Ti sei insuperbito o sei stato tra i vanagloriosi?»
38:76 Disse: «Io sono migliore di lui: hai creato me dal fuoco e hai creato lui dall’argilla.
38:74 74. išskyrus Iblį (Šėtoną) – jis pasididžiavo ir buvo vienas iš netikinčiųjų.
38:75 75. (Allahas) tarė: „Ibli (Šėtone), kas stabdo tave nuo nusižeminimo tam, kurį Aš sukūriau Abiejomis Savo Rankomis [2]. Esi perdaug išdidus (nusižeminti Adamui (Adomui)) ar esi vienas iš išaukštintųjų?“
38:76 76. [Iblis (Šėtonas)] tarė: „Esu geresnis nei jis. Tu sukūrei mane iš ugnies ir Tu sukūrei jį iš molio.“
38:74 Ibliis malee (sujuuda dide) boonee, kaafiroota irraa ta’e.
38:75 (Rabbiin) ni jedhe: “Yaa Ibliis! Waan Ani harka kiyyaan uumeef (Aadamiif) sujuuduu maaltu si dhorge? Ni boonte moo, of tuultota irraa taate?”
38:76 (Ibliis) ni jedhe: “Anatu isarra caala; ana ibidda irraa na uumte, isa immoo suphee (horofa)(dhoqqee) irraa isa uumte.”
38:74 кроме Иблиса: он превознёсся и оказался одним из отвергших веру.
38:75 Он сказал: «О Иблис! Что удержало тебя от того, чтобы пасть ниц пред тем, кого Я сотворил Своими Обеими Руками? Превознёсся ли ты, или ты из возгордившихся?»
38:76 Он сказал: «Я лучше, чем он. Ты сотворил меня из огня, а его сотворил из глины».
38:74 осим Сотоне - он се узохолио и постао неверник.
38:75 „О Сотона!“ Рече Аллах, „шта те навело да се не поклониш ономе кога сам Ја Својим двема рукама створио? Јеси ли се узохолио или мислиш да си узвишен?“
38:76 „Бољи сам од њега“, рече он, „мене си створио од ватре, а њега од глине.“
38:74 Isipokuwa Iblisi; alijivuna na akawa katika makafiri.
38:75 Mwenyezi Mungu akamwambia: Ewe Iblisi! Kipi kilichokuzuia kumtii yule niliyemuumba kwa mikono yangu? Je, umejiona mkubwa, au umekuwa katika wakuu kweli?
38:76 Akasema: Mimi ni bora kuliko yeye. Umeniumba kwa moto, na yeye umemuumba kwa udongo.
38:74 men inte Iblīs – han fylldes av högmod och blev en av de otrogna.
38:75 [Gud] sa: ”Iblīs! Vad hindrade dig från att falla ned inför den jag skapat med mina egna händer? Blev du högmodig eller har du alltid ansett dig vara förmer?”
38:76 Han svarade: ”Jag är bättre än han; du skapade mig av eld och honom av lera!”
38:74 İblis müstesnâ. Büyüklük tasladı ve kâfirlerden oldu.
38:75 (Allah) Buyurdu ki: "Ey İblis! İki elimle yarattığıma seni secde etmekten alıkoyan nedir? Büyüklük mü tasladın yoksa yücelerden mi oldun?"
38:76 Dedi ki: “Ben ondan daha hayırlıyım. Sen beni ateşten yarattın, onu ise çamurdan yarattın.”
38:74 مگر ابلیس نے (نہ کیا)، اس نے تکبر کیا[1] اور وه تھا کافروں میں سے.[2]
38:75 (اللہ تعالیٰ نے) فرمایا اے ابلیس! تجھے اسے سجده کرنے سے کس چیز نے روکا جسے میں نے اپنے ہاتھوں سے پیدا کیا۔ کیا[1] تو کچھ گھمنڈ میں آگیا ہے؟ یا تو بڑے درجے والوں میں سے ہے.
38:76 اس نے جواب دیا کہ میں اس سے بہتر ہوں، تو نے مجھے آگ سے بنایا، اور اسے مٹی سے بنایا ہے.[1]

- Hafs/Kufan verse numbering, 6236 ayahs. The bismillah is delivered as a separate `bismillah` attribute on ayah 1 and is NOT fused into the ayah text. 112 surahs carry one: every surah except al-Fatiha, where the bismillah is ayah 1:1 itself, and at-Tawba, which has none. Sourced from the XML output; the plain-text output of the same release DOES fuse it, which is defect D1.

15:31 përveç Iblisit, i cili nuk pranoi të ishte prej atyre që bënë sexhde.
15:32 Allahu i tha: "O Iblis, ç'ke që nuk iu bashkove atyre që bënë sexhde?"
15:33 Ai tha: "Unë nuk kam për t'i rënë në sexhde një njeriu që e krijove prej një balte të tharë, të zezë e të ndryshuar."
15:31 ইবলীস ছাড়া।(৭) সে সাজদাহকারীদের অন্তর্ভুক্ত হতে অস্বীকার করলো।
15:32 আল্লাহ বললেন: ‘হে ইবলীস! তোমার কী হলো যে, তুমি সাজদাহকারীদের অন্তর্ভুক্ত হলে না?’
15:33 সে (অহংকার করে) বললো: ‘আমি তো এমন নই যে, একজন মানুষকে আমি সাজদাহ করব, যাকে আপনি সৃষ্টি করেছেন গন্ধযুক্ত, শুকনো ও ঠনঠনে কালচে কাদামাটি থেকে।’
15:31 osim Iblisa; on se nije htio s njima pokloniti.
15:32 “O Iblise”, reče On, “zašto se ti ne htjede pokloniti?”
15:33 “Nije moje”, reče, “da se poklonim čovjeku koga si stvorio od ilovače, od blata ustajalog.”
15:31 osim Iblisa; on se nije htio s njima pokloniti.
15:32 “O Iblise,” reče On, “zašto se ti ne htjede pokloniti?”
15:33 “Nije moje”, reče, “da se poklonim čovjeku koga si stvorio od ilovače, od blata ustajalog.”
15:31 si wonaa ibliisa, o salii tawdeede e sujjooɓe ɓen.
15:32 O daali: "eey ma ibliisa, e ko heɓ maa a laatodaaki e sujjuɓe ɓeen?"
15:33 O wi'i: "mi wonatah sujjanoowo ɓanndinke mo taguɗaa immorde e senƴayngal, e loopal-ɓalewal ɓowrungal".
15:31 გარდა იბლისისა, (რომელმაც) უარი თქვა, რომ ყოფილიყო მუხლმოყრილებთან ერთად. [ეურჩა ალლაჰს]
15:32 უთხრა (ალლაჰმა): «ჰეი, იბლის! რა დაგემართა, რომ არ ხარ მუხლმოყრილებთან ერთად?»
15:33 მიუგო: «პირქვე (საჯდაზე) არ დავემხობი ადამიანისთვის, რომელიც მშრალი და შავი შეცვლილი ტალახისგან გააჩინე».
15:31 außer Iblis; er weigerte sich, unter den Sich-Niederwerfenden zu sein.
15:32 Er sagte: „O Iblis, was ist mit dir, dass du nicht zu den Sich-Niederwerfenden gehörst?“
15:33 Er sagte: „Ich kann mich doch nicht vor einem menschlichen Wesen niederwerfen, das Du aus trockenem Ton, aus fauligem schwarzen Schlamm erschaffen hast.“
15:31 εκτός από τον Ιμπλίς (-τον Σατανά- που ήταν τζινν και όχι Άγγελος), αρνήθηκε να είναι μαζί μ' εκείνους (τους Αγγέλους) που έπεσαν σε Σιτζούντ στάση (με το μέτωπο στο έδαφος).
15:32 (Ο Αλλάχ) είπε: «Ω, Ιμπλίς! Τι σε εμπόδισε από το να είσαι μαζί μ' εκείνους που έπεσαν σε Σιτζούντ στάση (με το μέτωπο στο έδαφος);»
15:33 Είπε (ο Ιμπλίς -ο Σατανάς-): «Ποτέ δε θα έπεφτα σε Σιτζούντ στάση (με το μέτωπο στο έδαφος) ενώπιον ενός ανθρώπου που τον δημιούργησες από ξηρό πηλό (σαν τα κεραμικά), φτιαγμένο από μαύρη λάσπη (που έμεινε πολύ καιρό μέχρι) που άλλαξε η μυρωδιά και το χρώμα της!»
15:31 सिवाय इबलीस के। उसने सजदा करने वालों के साथ शामिल होने से इनकार कर दिया।
15:32 अल्लाह ने पूछा : ऐ इबलीस! तुझे क्या हुआ कि तू सजदा करने वालों में शामिल नहीं हुआॽ
15:33 उसने कहा : मैं ऐसा नहीं कि एक मनुष्य को सजदा करूँ, जिसे तूने सड़े हुए गारे की खनखनाती मिट्टी से पैदा किया है।
15:31 tranne Iblīs, che rifiutò di essere tra i prosternati.
15:32 Disse: «O Iblīs! Perché non sei tra i prosternati?»
15:33 Disse: «Non mi prosterno a un essere che hai creato da argilla fangosa!»
15:31 31. Išskyrus Iblis (Šėtoną) – jis atsisakė būti tarp sukniubusiųjų.
15:32 32. (Allahas) tarė: „Iblis (Šėtone), kodėl tu nesi tarp sukniubusiųjų?“
15:33 33. [Iblis (Šėtonas)] tarė: „Aš nesu tas, kuris nusižemina žmogui, kurį Tu sukūrei iš perdirbto purvo sudžiuvusio (tuščio) molio.“
15:31 Ibliis malee inni warra sujuuda bu’an wajji ta’uu dide.
15:32 (Rabbiin) “Yaa Ibliis! Maaliif warra sujuuda bu’an wajji ta’uu didde?” jedheen.
15:33 [Inni] nijedhe “Ani nama Ati suphee (faara) dhoqqee jijjiiramaa ta’e irraa uumteef kan sujuudu hintaane”.
15:31 кроме Иблиса: он отказался быть с теми, которые преклонились ниц.
15:32 Он сказал: «О Иблис! Что с тобою, почему ты не был с павшими ниц?»
15:33 Он сказал: «Мне не пристало падать ниц пред человеком, которого Ты сотворил из звонкой глины — из почерневшей, изменившейся грязи».
15:31 осим Сотоне; он је одбио да се поклони.
15:32 „О Сотоно“, упита Он, „зашто се ниси поклонио са онима који су се поклонили?“
15:33 “Не приличи ми”, рече, “да се поклоним човеку кога си створио од иловаче, од блата устајалог.”
15:31 Isipokuwa Iblisi. Yeye alikataa kuwa pamoja na waliosujudu.
15:32 (Mwenyezi Mungu) akasema: Ewe Iblisi! Una nini hata hukuwa pamoja na waliosujudu?
15:33 Akasema: Haiwi mimi nimsujudie mtu uliyemuumba kutokana na udongo unaotoa sauti, unaotokana na matope yaliyotiwa sura.
15:31 utom Iblīs; han vägrade att vara bland de som föll ned.
15:32 [Gud] sa: ”Iblīs! Varför faller inte du ned som de andra?”
15:33 Han svarade: ”Jag skulle aldrig falla ned inför en människa – en som du har skapat av torr lera, av svart gyttja.”
15:31 Bundan bir tek İblis müstesnaydı. O, secde edenlerle birlikte olmaktan kaçındı.
15:32 Allah: "Ey İblis, senin secde edenlerle beraber olmanı engelleyen nedir?" dedi.
15:33 "(İblis) Ben, kuru bir çamurdan, kara ve (rengi, kokusu değişmiş) bir balçıktan yarattığın bir beşere secde edecek değilim" dedi.
15:31 مگر ابلیس کے۔ کہ اس نے سجده کرنے والوں میں شمولیت کرنے سے (صاف) انکار کر دیا.
15:32 (اللہ تعالیٰ نے) فرمایا اے ابلیس تجھے کیا ہوا کہ تو سجده کرنے والوں میں شامل نہ ہوا؟
15:33 وه بوﻻ کہ میں ایسا نہیں کہ اس انسان کو سجده کروں جسے تو نے کالی اور سڑی ہوئی کھنکھناتی مٹی سے پیدا کیا ہے.[1]

What this study rests on, and what it refusessigned with it5 of the 6 paragraphs signed with this study; the paragraph naming what it does not answer is at the top of the page
The selection above and this account of it are part of what was signed. Where the renderings disagree it says so; where the question runs past what has cleared the rights audit it says that too.
Read across the four public-domain translations - Sale 1734, Rodwell 1861, Palmer 1880, Pickthall 1930 - of 18:50, 2:34, 7:11-12, 38:74-76, 15:31-33, in full, and nothing else. This study consults no , no , no occasion of revelation and no biography, because none is yet available in an edition whose usage rights can be verified. Itani 2012, the fifth translation shown with these verses, was not consulted for this study.
How this set was arrived at. The verses were found by a word search of the four public-domain translations, using terms chosen by the editor and listed here as they were searched - iblis + jinn; eblis + genii; was + jinn; iblis; eblis. The search was a way of finding passages, not a judgement about what they mean: that several translators chose the same English word is not evidence about the Arabic. A different choice of terms gives a different set.
What was returned and not carried. 7 verse(s) the search qualified are recorded as not carried with a reason each, rather than silently discarded: 17:61 - near-identical to 15:31-33 and 38:74-76, both kept; carried by What does the Qur'an say about the human being made from clay? for its clay clause; 20:116 - near-identical and adds nothing new; 26:95 - his followers, not his kind; 34:14 - matched on jinn; the subject is the jinn's ignorance; 34:20 - his success, not his kind; 41:25 - comrades in general; 46:29 - carried by What does the Qur'an say about the jinn?
Verses carried by more than one study. Some passages here also serve another study. Each carries its own reason in each place, and the reason states where else it appears.
Where the translations part company, named rather than resolved. How differently the translations word each verse is shown on that verse's page, and the study names the differences it turns on rather than choosing between them.
