قُل إِنَّما أَنا مُنذِرٌ ۖ وَما مِن إِلـٰهٍ إِلَّا اللَّهُ الواحِدُ القَهّارُ
Say, “I am only a warner, and there is no god except God, the Singular, the Prevailing.
رَبُّ السَّماواتِ وَالأَرضِ وَما بَينَهُمَا العَزيزُ الغَفّارُ
The Lord of the heavens and the earth, and whatever is between them, the Mighty, the Forgiving.”
قُل هُوَ نَبَأٌ عَظيمٌ
Say, “This is a significant message.
أَنتُم عَنهُ مُعرِضونَ
From which you are turning away.
ما كانَ لِيَ مِن عِلمٍ بِالمَلَإِ الأَعلىٰ إِذ يَختَصِمونَ
I have no knowledge of the Exalted Assembly when they argue.
إِن يوحىٰ إِلَيَّ إِلّا أَنَّما أَنا نَذيرٌ مُبينٌ
It has only been revealed to me that I am a clear warner.”
إِذ قالَ رَبُّكَ لِلمَلائِكَةِ إِنّي خالِقٌ بَشَرًا مِن طينٍ
When your Lord told the angels, “I am creating a human being from clay.
فَإِذا سَوَّيتُهُ وَنَفَختُ فيهِ مِن روحي فَقَعوا لَهُ ساجِدينَ
Once I have shaped him and breathed into him of My Spirit, prostrate before him.”
فَسَجَدَ المَلائِكَةُ كُلُّهُم أَجمَعونَ
So the angels prostrated all of them together.
إِلّا إِبليسَ استَكبَرَ وَكانَ مِنَ الكافِرينَ
Except for Iblis—he was arrogant and became one of the unbelievers.
قالَ يا إِبليسُ ما مَنَعَكَ أَن تَسجُدَ لِما خَلَقتُ بِيَدَيَّ ۖ أَستَكبَرتَ أَم كُنتَ مِنَ العالينَ
He questioned, “O Iblis, what prevented you from prostrating before the one I created with My hands? Are you too proud, or are you of high rank?”
