Indeed, We created man from sounding clay moulded from black mud.

As for the jinn, We created them earlier from smokeless fire.

˹Remember, O  Prophet˺ when your Lord said to the angels, “I am going to create a human being from sounding clay moulded from black mud.¹

So when I have fashioned him and had a spirit of My Own ˹creation˺ breathed into him, fall down in prostration to him.”

So the angels prostrated all together—

but not Iblîs,¹ who refused to prostrate with the others.
