15. Hixhr · verses 30–32

فَسَجَدَ ٱلۡمَلَٰٓئِكَةُ كُلُّهُمۡ أَجۡمَعُونَ

Fasajada almalaikatu kulluhum ajmaAAoona

So the angels prostrated themselves, all of them together:

إِلَّآ إِبۡلِيسَ أَبَىٰٓ أَن يَكُونَ مَعَ ٱلسَّٰجِدِينَ

Illa ibleesa aba an yakoona maAAa alssajideena

Not so Iblis: he refused to be among those who prostrated themselves.

قَالَ يَٰٓإِبۡلِيسُ مَا لَكَ أَلَّا تَكُونَ مَعَ ٱلسَّٰجِدِينَ

Qala ya ibleesu ma laka alla takoona maAAa alssajideena

(Allah) said: "O Iblis! what is your reason for not being among those who prostrated themselves?"
