قَالَ يَا إِبْلِيسُ مَا لَكَ أَلاَّ تَكُونَ مَعَ السَّاجِدِينَ (( 32 )) 32- HE SAID; O, IBLIS! WHAT WAS WRONG WITH YOU THAT YOU WERE NOT WITH THOSE WHO PROSTRATED? قَالَ لَمْ أَكُنْ لاَِّسْجُدَ لِبَشَر خَلَقْتَهُ مِنْ صَلْصَال مِّنْ حَمَإ مَّسْنُون (( 33 )) 33- HE SAID; I AM NOT GOING TO PROSTRATE FOR A MAN WHOM YOU CREATED OF A CLAY OF SLIME. قَالَ فَاخْرُجْ مِنْهَا فَإِنَّكَ رَجِيمٌ (( 34 )) 34- HE SAID; THEN GET OUT OF IT, THAT YOU ARE DISCHARGED.
