[Tafseer] (And
(remember) when We said unto the angels) who were on the earth: (Fall prostrate
before Adam) a prostration of greeting, (and they fell prostrate, all save
Iblis) their leader. (He was of the jinn) of the tribe of the jinn, (so he
rebelled against his Lord's command) he disobeyed his Lord and refused to
prostrate to Adam. (Will ye choose him) will you worship him (and his seed for
your protecting friends) as lords (instead of Me) instead of Allah, (when they
are an enemy unto you) whose enmity is quite manifest? (Calamitous is the
exchange) in worship; it is also said that this means: evil is that which they
exchanged: they exchanged the worship of Allah with the worship of Satan; and it
is also said: they exchanged the protecting friendship of Allah with the
protecting friendship of Satan (for evil-doers) for idolaters!
Hazrat Aishah (May
Allah be pleased with her) reported: The Messenger of Allah
[SAWW](PBUH) said, "Angels were created from light, jinns were created from a
smokeless flame of fire, and `Adam was created from that which you have been
told (i.e., sounding clay like the clay of pottery).''
[Muslim
Book 42, Chapter 12, Hadith #
7134].
Lesson : as
mentioned above in Surah Al-Kahf Ayat 50. "So they prostrated
except Iblis (Satan). He was one of the jinns;" The angels are the creation of Allah which He created from
light. Their bodies are so subtle that they can assume any form they like. The
jinn are also an unperceptible creation of Allah. They have also been bestowed
with such powers as are not possessed by humans. Satan also belongs
to the jinn. Man has been created from sounding clay. The Hadith
states the Great and the Perfect Powers of Allah that He can create whatever He
likes from whatever He likes, and He can do whatever He wishes.
