| |70* "Only this has been revealed to me: that I am to give warning plainly and publicly."  
| |71* Behold, thy Lord said to the angels: "I am about to create man from clay:  
| |72* "When I have fashioned him and breathed into him of My spirit, fall ye down in obeisance unto him."  
| |73* So the angels prostrated themselves, all of them together:

| |76* (Iblis) said: "I am better than he: Thou createdst me from fire, and him Thou createdst from clay."  
| |77* (Allah) said: "Then get thee out from here: for thou art rejected, accursed.  
| |78* "And My Curse shall be on thee till the Day of Judgment."
