CONVERSATION BETWEEN THE LORD & SHAITAN ALLAH says, Surely We brought man into being out of dry ringing clay which was wrought from black mud, while We had brought the jinn into being before out of blazing fire. Recall when your Lord said to the angels The Lord : I will indeed bring into being a human being out of dry ringing clay wrought from black mud. When I have completed shaping him and have breathed into him of My Spirit, then fall you down before him in prostration. So, the angels - all of them - fell down in prostration, except Iblis; he refused to join those who prostrated. The Lord : Iblis! What is the matter with you that you did not join those who prostrated? Iblis : It does not behove of me to prostrate myself before a human being whom You have created out of dry ringing clay wrought from black mud. The Lord : Then get out of here; you are rejected, and there shall be a curse upon you till the Day of Recompense. Iblis : My Lord! Grant me respite till the Day when they will be resurrected. The Lord : For sure you are granted respite until the day of a known time. Iblis : My Lord! In the manner You led me to error, I will make things on earth seem attractive to them and lead all of them to error, except those of Your servants whom You have singled out for Yourself. The Lord : Here is the path that leads straight to Me. Over My true servants you will be able to exercise no power, your power will be confined to the erring ones, those who choose to follow you. Surely Hell is the promised place for all of them. There are seven gates in it, and to each gate a portion of them has been allotted As for the God-fearing, they shall be amid gardens and springs. They will be told : Enter it in peace and security. And We shall purge their breasts of all traces of rancour; and they shall be seated on couches facing one another as brothers. They shall face no fatigue in it, nor shall they ever be driven out of it. > From Al Quran [15:26-48]
