Y: Not so Iblis: he was haughty, and became one of those who reject
Faith.
P: Saving Iblis; he was scornful and became one of the disbelievers.
S: But not Iblis: he was proud and he was one of the unbelievers.
038.075 Y: (Allah) said: "O Iblis! What prevents thee from prostrating thyself to one whom I have created with my hands? Art thou haughty? Or art thou one of the high (and mighty) ones?"
P: 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?
S: He said: O Iblis! what prevented you that you should do obeisance to him whom I created with My two hands? Are you proud or are you of the exalted ones?
038.076 Y: (Iblis) said: "I am better than he: thou createdst me from fire, and him thou createdst from clay."
