Sād

වාක්‍යය: 1

صٓۚ وَٱلۡقُرۡءَانِ ذِي ٱلذِّكۡرِ

Sād^[1]. By the Qur’an, full of reminder^[2],

[1] See footnote 2:1.
[2] The oath's completion is that the Qur’an is inimitable and thus Allah's miracle.

වාක්‍යය: 2

بَلِ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ فِي عِزَّةٖ وَشِقَاقٖ

yet those who disbelieve are in arrogance and dissension.

වාක්‍යය: 3

كَمۡ أَهۡلَكۡنَا مِن قَبۡلِهِم مِّن قَرۡنٖ فَنَادَواْ وَّلَاتَ حِينَ مَنَاصٖ

How many generations have We destroyed before them, and they cried out when it was too late for deliverance.

වාක්‍යය: 4

وَعَجِبُوٓاْ أَن جَآءَهُم مُّنذِرٞ مِّنۡهُمۡۖ وَقَالَ ٱلۡكَٰفِرُونَ هَٰذَا سَٰحِرٞ كَذَّابٌ

They wonder that a warner has come to them from among themselves^[3], and the disbelievers say, “This is a magician and a liar!

[3] The disbelievers demanded that an angel be sent to them to convey the message of Allah, not a human like themselves.

වාක්‍යය: 5

أَجَعَلَ ٱلۡأٓلِهَةَ إِلَٰهٗا وَٰحِدًاۖ إِنَّ هَٰذَا لَشَيۡءٌ عُجَابٞ

Has he made all gods into one God? Indeed, this is something strange!”

වාක්‍යය: 6

وَٱنطَلَقَ ٱلۡمَلَأُ مِنۡهُمۡ أَنِ ٱمۡشُواْ وَٱصۡبِرُواْ عَلَىٰٓ ءَالِهَتِكُمۡۖ إِنَّ هَٰذَا لَشَيۡءٞ يُرَادُ

The leaders among them departed, saying, “Carry on as you are, and stay faithful to your gods. Indeed, there is a motive behind it^[4].

[4] i.e., The Prophet (ﷺ) only wants to gain influence and prestige for himself.

වාක්‍යය: 7

مَا سَمِعۡنَا بِهَٰذَا فِي ٱلۡمِلَّةِ ٱلۡأٓخِرَةِ إِنۡ هَٰذَآ إِلَّا ٱخۡتِلَٰقٌ

We have not heard of this in the last religion^[5]. This is nothing but a fabrication.

[5] It refers to Christianity or pagan Arab beliefs.

වාක්‍යය: 8

أَءُنزِلَ عَلَيۡهِ ٱلذِّكۡرُ مِنۢ بَيۡنِنَاۚ بَلۡ هُمۡ فِي شَكّٖ مِّن ذِكۡرِيۚ بَل لَّمَّا يَذُوقُواْ عَذَابِ

Has the Reminder been sent down to him from among us?” Rather, they are in doubt about My Reminder^[6], for they have not yet tasted My punishment.

[6] They do not question the Prophet's (ﷺ) honesty; rather, they question the Qur’an itself. See 6:33.

වාක්‍යය: 9

أَمۡ عِندَهُمۡ خَزَآئِنُ رَحۡمَةِ رَبِّكَ ٱلۡعَزِيزِ ٱلۡوَهَّابِ

Or do they possess the treasuries of the mercy of your Lord, the All-Mighty, the Bestower?

වාක්‍යය: 10

أَمۡ لَهُم مُّلۡكُ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلۡأَرۡضِ وَمَا بَيۡنَهُمَاۖ فَلۡيَرۡتَقُواْ فِي ٱلۡأَسۡبَٰبِ

Or do they have the dominion of the heavens and earth and all that is between them? Then let them ascend by any means^[7].

[7] To manage the affairs of their dominion.

වාක්‍යය: 11

جُندٞ مَّا هُنَالِكَ مَهۡزُومٞ مِّنَ ٱلۡأَحۡزَابِ

This is only a small army^[8] among several armies^[9] that will soon be defeated.

[8] It alludes to the defeat of the pagans of Makkah at Badr.
[9] i.e., the defeated armies of the past who rejected their messengers.

වාක්‍යය: 12

كَذَّبَتۡ قَبۡلَهُمۡ قَوۡمُ نُوحٖ وَعَادٞ وَفِرۡعَوۡنُ ذُو ٱلۡأَوۡتَادِ

The people of Noah rejected [their messengers] before them, as did ‘Aad and Pharaoh, the owner of stakes^[10];

[10] It refers to the stakes by which he used to torture people, or the pyramids which are like stakes into the earth.

වාක්‍යය: 13

وَثَمُودُ وَقَوۡمُ لُوطٖ وَأَصۡحَٰبُ لۡـَٔيۡكَةِۚ أُوْلَٰٓئِكَ ٱلۡأَحۡزَابُ

and Thamūd and the people of Lot, and the dwellers of the Forest – such were the [denier] parties.

වාක්‍යය: 14

إِن كُلٌّ إِلَّا كَذَّبَ ٱلرُّسُلَ فَحَقَّ عِقَابِ

Each of them rejected their messenger, therefore My punishment became inevitable.

වාක්‍යය: 15

وَمَا يَنظُرُ هَٰٓؤُلَآءِ إِلَّا صَيۡحَةٗ وَٰحِدَةٗ مَّا لَهَا مِن فَوَاقٖ

They are only waiting for a single Blast that cannot be stopped^[11].

[11] Fawāq: "respite", more literally, "a period between two milkings of a she-camel," which also alludes to "return" or "repetition."

වාක්‍යය: 16

وَقَالُواْ رَبَّنَا عَجِّل لَّنَا قِطَّنَا قَبۡلَ يَوۡمِ ٱلۡحِسَابِ

They say, “Our Lord, hasten for us our share [of punishment] before the Day of Reckoning.”

වාක්‍යය: 17

ٱصۡبِرۡ عَلَىٰ مَا يَقُولُونَ وَٱذۡكُرۡ عَبۡدَنَا دَاوُۥدَ ذَا ٱلۡأَيۡدِۖ إِنَّهُۥٓ أَوَّابٌ

Bear with patience whatever they say, and remember Our slave David, the man of strength who constantly turned [to Allah].

වාක්‍යය: 18

إِنَّا سَخَّرۡنَا ٱلۡجِبَالَ مَعَهُۥ يُسَبِّحۡنَ بِٱلۡعَشِيِّ وَٱلۡإِشۡرَاقِ

We subjected the mountains to join him in glorifying Allah in the evening and the morning,

වාක්‍යය: 19

وَٱلطَّيۡرَ مَحۡشُورَةٗۖ كُلّٞ لَّهُۥٓ أَوَّابٞ

and the birds, in their flocks; they all would echo his praise.

වාක්‍යය: 20

وَشَدَدۡنَا مُلۡكَهُۥ وَءَاتَيۡنَٰهُ ٱلۡحِكۡمَةَ وَفَصۡلَ ٱلۡخِطَابِ

We strengthened his kingdom and gave him wisdom and sound judgment [and speech].

වාක්‍යය: 21

۞ وَهَلۡ أَتَىٰكَ نَبَؤُاْ ٱلۡخَصۡمِ إِذۡ تَسَوَّرُواْ ٱلۡمِحۡرَابَ

Has there come to you the story of the adversaries, when they climbed the wall of his chamber?

වාක්‍යය: 22

إِذۡ دَخَلُواْ عَلَىٰ دَاوُۥدَ فَفَزِعَ مِنۡهُمۡۖ قَالُواْ لَا تَخَفۡۖ خَصۡمَانِ بَغَىٰ بَعۡضُنَا عَلَىٰ بَعۡضٖ فَٱحۡكُم بَيۡنَنَا بِٱلۡحَقِّ وَلَا تُشۡطِطۡ وَٱهۡدِنَآ إِلَىٰ سَوَآءِ ٱلصِّرَٰطِ

When they entered upon David, he was frightened. They said, “Do not be afraid. We are two adversaries: one of us has wronged the other, so judge between us with fairness, and do not be unjust, and guide us to the straight path.

වාක්‍යය: 23

إِنَّ هَٰذَآ أَخِي لَهُۥ تِسۡعٞ وَتِسۡعُونَ نَعۡجَةٗ وَلِيَ نَعۡجَةٞ وَٰحِدَةٞ فَقَالَ أَكۡفِلۡنِيهَا وَعَزَّنِي فِي ٱلۡخِطَابِ

This is my brother^[12]. He has ninety-nine ewes while I have only one. He said, ‘Give her into my charge,’ and he overpowered me in speech.”

[12] i.e., brother in faith, business partner, or biological brother.

වාක්‍යය: 24

قَالَ لَقَدۡ ظَلَمَكَ بِسُؤَالِ نَعۡجَتِكَ إِلَىٰ نِعَاجِهِۦۖ وَإِنَّ كَثِيرٗا مِّنَ ٱلۡخُلَطَآءِ لَيَبۡغِي بَعۡضُهُمۡ عَلَىٰ بَعۡضٍ إِلَّا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ وَعَمِلُواْ ٱلصَّٰلِحَٰتِ وَقَلِيلٞ مَّا هُمۡۗ وَظَنَّ دَاوُۥدُ أَنَّمَا فَتَنَّٰهُ فَٱسۡتَغۡفَرَ رَبَّهُۥ وَخَرَّۤ رَاكِعٗاۤ وَأَنَابَ۩

David said, “He has certainly wronged you by demanding that your ewe be added to his flock. Indeed, many partners oppress one another, except those who believe and do righteous deeds – and how few they are.” Then David realized that We were only testing him, so he asked his Lord for forgiveness^[13], fell down bowing, and turned to Him in repentance.

[13] For fear of the two men or the misjudgment he made.

වාක්‍යය: 25

فَغَفَرۡنَا لَهُۥ ذَٰلِكَۖ وَإِنَّ لَهُۥ عِندَنَا لَزُلۡفَىٰ وَحُسۡنَ مَـَٔابٖ

So We forgave that for him, and he certainly has a place of nearness to Us and a good place of return.

වාක්‍යය: 26

يَٰدَاوُۥدُ إِنَّا جَعَلۡنَٰكَ خَلِيفَةٗ فِي ٱلۡأَرۡضِ فَٱحۡكُم بَيۡنَ ٱلنَّاسِ بِٱلۡحَقِّ وَلَا تَتَّبِعِ ٱلۡهَوَىٰ فَيُضِلَّكَ عَن سَبِيلِ ٱللَّهِۚ إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ يَضِلُّونَ عَن سَبِيلِ ٱللَّهِ لَهُمۡ عَذَابٞ شَدِيدُۢ بِمَا نَسُواْ يَوۡمَ ٱلۡحِسَابِ

“O David, We have made you a ruler on earth, so judge between people with justice, and do not follow your desires lest they lead you astray from Allah’s way. Those who go astray from Allah’s way will have a severe punishment because of their forgetting the Day of Reckoning.”

වාක්‍යය: 27

وَمَا خَلَقۡنَا ٱلسَّمَآءَ وَٱلۡأَرۡضَ وَمَا بَيۡنَهُمَا بَٰطِلٗاۚ ذَٰلِكَ ظَنُّ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْۚ فَوَيۡلٞ لِّلَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ مِنَ ٱلنَّارِ

We have not created the heavens and earth and all that is between them in vain. That is the assumption of those who disbelieve. So woe to the disbelievers from the Fire!

වාක්‍යය: 28

أَمۡ نَجۡعَلُ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ وَعَمِلُواْ ٱلصَّٰلِحَٰتِ كَٱلۡمُفۡسِدِينَ فِي ٱلۡأَرۡضِ أَمۡ نَجۡعَلُ ٱلۡمُتَّقِينَ كَٱلۡفُجَّارِ

Should We make those who believe and do righteous deeds equal to those who spread corruption on earth? Or should We make the righteous equal to the wicked?

වාක්‍යය: 29

كِتَٰبٌ أَنزَلۡنَٰهُ إِلَيۡكَ مُبَٰرَكٞ لِّيَدَّبَّرُوٓاْ ءَايَٰتِهِۦ وَلِيَتَذَكَّرَ أُوْلُواْ ٱلۡأَلۡبَٰبِ

This is a blessed Book that We have sent down to you [O Prophet] so that they may reflect upon its verses, and so that people of understanding may take heed.

වාක්‍යය: 30

وَوَهَبۡنَا لِدَاوُۥدَ سُلَيۡمَٰنَۚ نِعۡمَ ٱلۡعَبۡدُ إِنَّهُۥٓ أَوَّابٌ

And to David We gave Solomon, an excellent and faithful slave who constantly turned [to Us].

වාක්‍යය: 31

إِذۡ عُرِضَ عَلَيۡهِ بِٱلۡعَشِيِّ ٱلصَّٰفِنَٰتُ ٱلۡجِيَادُ

One evening, well-trained and swift horses of noble breed were presented before him.

වාක්‍යය: 32

فَقَالَ إِنِّيٓ أَحۡبَبۡتُ حُبَّ ٱلۡخَيۡرِ عَن ذِكۡرِ رَبِّي حَتَّىٰ تَوَارَتۡ بِٱلۡحِجَابِ

He then said, “I gave preference to the love of fine things over the remembrance of my Lord,” until the sun went out of sight.

වාක්‍යය: 33

رُدُّوهَا عَلَيَّۖ فَطَفِقَ مَسۡحَۢا بِٱلسُّوقِ وَٱلۡأَعۡنَاقِ

[He ordered], “Bring them back to me,” and he began striking [their] shanks and necks^[14].

[14] With his sword as expiation, for it might have been permissible in their law, especially if it had been for the sake of Allah such as missing prayer or the like; this is a more correct view. However, Ibn Jarīr favored the view that Solomon began to rub down their legs and necks with the hand, not by the sword.

වාක්‍යය: 34

وَلَقَدۡ فَتَنَّا سُلَيۡمَٰنَ وَأَلۡقَيۡنَا عَلَىٰ كُرۡسِيِّهِۦ جَسَدٗا ثُمَّ أَنَابَ

Indeed, We tested Solomon and cast upon his throne a body, then he turned [to Allah]^[15].

[15] The Prophet (ﷺ) said that one night Solomon said that each one of his wives would conceive a boy who would fight for the sake of Allah. He forgot to say ‘Allah willing,’ so only one of them gave birth to a deformed, dead baby. So Solomon sought Allah’s forgiveness. [Al-Bukhāri]

වාක්‍යය: 35

قَالَ رَبِّ ٱغۡفِرۡ لِي وَهَبۡ لِي مُلۡكٗا لَّا يَنۢبَغِي لِأَحَدٖ مِّنۢ بَعۡدِيٓۖ إِنَّكَ أَنتَ ٱلۡوَهَّابُ

He said, “My Lord, forgive me and grant me a kingdom, the like of which will never be granted to anyone after me. You are indeed the Bestower.”

වාක්‍යය: 36

فَسَخَّرۡنَا لَهُ ٱلرِّيحَ تَجۡرِي بِأَمۡرِهِۦ رُخَآءً حَيۡثُ أَصَابَ

So We subjected to him the wind blowing gently by his command to wherever he wished,

වාක්‍යය: 37

وَٱلشَّيَٰطِينَ كُلَّ بَنَّآءٖ وَغَوَّاصٖ

And [We subjected to him] the devils, all kinds of builders and divers^[16],

[16] They dived to bring him pearls.

වාක්‍යය: 38

وَءَاخَرِينَ مُقَرَّنِينَ فِي ٱلۡأَصۡفَادِ

and others bound in chains.

වාක්‍යය: 39

هَٰذَا عَطَآؤُنَا فَٱمۡنُنۡ أَوۡ أَمۡسِكۡ بِغَيۡرِ حِسَابٖ

[We said], “This is Our gift, so give freely or withhold, without account^[17].”

[17] i.e., you will not be called to account thereby.

වාක්‍යය: 40

وَإِنَّ لَهُۥ عِندَنَا لَزُلۡفَىٰ وَحُسۡنَ مَـَٔابٖ

And he certainly has a status of nearness to Us and a good place of return.

වාක්‍යය: 41

وَٱذۡكُرۡ عَبۡدَنَآ أَيُّوبَ إِذۡ نَادَىٰ رَبَّهُۥٓ أَنِّي مَسَّنِيَ ٱلشَّيۡطَٰنُ بِنُصۡبٖ وَعَذَابٍ

And remember Our slave Job, when he cried out to his Lord, “Indeed, Satan has afflicted me with hardship and pain.”

වාක්‍යය: 42

ٱرۡكُضۡ بِرِجۡلِكَۖ هَٰذَا مُغۡتَسَلُۢ بَارِدٞ وَشَرَابٞ

[Allah said], “Stamp [the ground] with your foot: here is a cool spring for bathing and drinking.”

වාක්‍යය: 43

وَوَهَبۡنَا لَهُۥٓ أَهۡلَهُۥ وَمِثۡلَهُم مَّعَهُمۡ رَحۡمَةٗ مِّنَّا وَذِكۡرَىٰ لِأُوْلِي ٱلۡأَلۡبَٰبِ

And We restored his family to him and the like of them^[18] as a mercy from Us and as a reminder for people of understanding.

[18] When Allah granted him health, the whole family returned to him and he was granted even more children.

වාක්‍යය: 44

وَخُذۡ بِيَدِكَ ضِغۡثٗا فَٱضۡرِب بِّهِۦ وَلَا تَحۡنَثۡۗ إِنَّا وَجَدۡنَٰهُ صَابِرٗاۚ نِّعۡمَ ٱلۡعَبۡدُ إِنَّهُۥٓ أَوَّابٞ

[We said], “Take a bunch of grass in your hand, and strike [your wife] with it, and do not break your oath^[19].” We truly found him patient – an excellent and faithful slave he was. He constantly turned [to Us].

[19] When Job was afflicted with illness, everyone abandoned him except his wife. Once he became angry with her and vowed to punish her with one hundred lashes if he recovered. According to Allah's instruction, the oath was fulfilled by striking her once with one hundred blades of grass without harming his wife.

වාක්‍යය: 45

وَٱذۡكُرۡ عِبَٰدَنَآ إِبۡرَٰهِيمَ وَإِسۡحَٰقَ وَيَعۡقُوبَ أُوْلِي ٱلۡأَيۡدِي وَٱلۡأَبۡصَٰرِ

Remember Our slaves: Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob – men of strength and insight.

වාක්‍යය: 46

إِنَّآ أَخۡلَصۡنَٰهُم بِخَالِصَةٖ ذِكۡرَى ٱلدَّارِ

We chose them exclusively for the remembrance of the Final Home.

වාක්‍යය: 47

وَإِنَّهُمۡ عِندَنَا لَمِنَ ٱلۡمُصۡطَفَيۡنَ ٱلۡأَخۡيَارِ

Indeed, they are before us among the chosen and best ones.

වාක්‍යය: 48

وَٱذۡكُرۡ إِسۡمَٰعِيلَ وَٱلۡيَسَعَ وَذَا ٱلۡكِفۡلِۖ وَكُلّٞ مِّنَ ٱلۡأَخۡيَارِ

Also remember Ishmael, Elisha, and Dhul-Kifl^[20] – all were among the best.

[20] Scholars are of different opinions as to whether Dhul-Kifl was a prophet or only a righteous man.

වාක්‍යය: 49

هَٰذَا ذِكۡرٞۚ وَإِنَّ لِلۡمُتَّقِينَ لَحُسۡنَ مَـَٔابٖ

This is a reminder. And the righteous will surely have a good return:

වාක්‍යය: 50

جَنَّٰتِ عَدۡنٖ مُّفَتَّحَةٗ لَّهُمُ ٱلۡأَبۡوَٰبُ

Gardens of Eternity, with gates wide open for them.

වාක්‍යය: 51

مُتَّكِـِٔينَ فِيهَا يَدۡعُونَ فِيهَا بِفَٰكِهَةٖ كَثِيرَةٖ وَشَرَابٖ

They will recline therein, calling for abundant fruit and drink.

වාක්‍යය: 52

۞ وَعِندَهُمۡ قَٰصِرَٰتُ ٱلطَّرۡفِ أَتۡرَابٌ

And they will have maidens of modest gaze^[21] and equal age.

[21] Their gaze will be restricted to their mates alone.

වාක්‍යය: 53

هَٰذَا مَا تُوعَدُونَ لِيَوۡمِ ٱلۡحِسَابِ

This is what you are promised for the Day of Account.

වාක්‍යය: 54

إِنَّ هَٰذَا لَرِزۡقُنَا مَا لَهُۥ مِن نَّفَادٍ

Indeed, this is Our provision [for the righteous] that will never cease.

වාක්‍යය: 55

هَٰذَاۚ وَإِنَّ لِلطَّٰغِينَ لَشَرَّ مَـَٔابٖ

This [is so]. But the transgressors will surely have the worst return:

වාක්‍යය: 56

جَهَنَّمَ يَصۡلَوۡنَهَا فَبِئۡسَ ٱلۡمِهَادُ

Hell, where they will burn. What a terrible resting place!

වාක්‍යය: 57

هَٰذَا فَلۡيَذُوقُوهُ حَمِيمٞ وَغَسَّاقٞ

Let them taste this: scalding water and pus,

වාක්‍යය: 58

وَءَاخَرُ مِن شَكۡلِهِۦٓ أَزۡوَٰجٌ

and other similar [torments] of various kinds.

වාක්‍යය: 59

هَٰذَا فَوۡجٞ مُّقۡتَحِمٞ مَّعَكُمۡ لَا مَرۡحَبَۢا بِهِمۡۚ إِنَّهُمۡ صَالُواْ ٱلنَّارِ

[The misleaders will say], “Here is a crowd of people being thrown in with you. They are not welcome! They will surely burn in the Fire.”

වාක්‍යය: 60

قَالُواْ بَلۡ أَنتُمۡ لَا مَرۡحَبَۢا بِكُمۡۖ أَنتُمۡ قَدَّمۡتُمُوهُ لَنَاۖ فَبِئۡسَ ٱلۡقَرَارُ

They will say, “No! You are not welcome! You brought this on us. What a terrible place to settle in!”

වාක්‍යය: 61

قَالُواْ رَبَّنَا مَن قَدَّمَ لَنَا هَٰذَا فَزِدۡهُ عَذَابٗا ضِعۡفٗا فِي ٱلنَّارِ

They will say, “Our Lord, whoever brought this on us, give him double punishment in the Fire.”

වාක්‍යය: 62

وَقَالُواْ مَا لَنَا لَا نَرَىٰ رِجَالٗا كُنَّا نَعُدُّهُم مِّنَ ٱلۡأَشۡرَارِ

They will say, “Why do we not see those whom we considered to be among the wicked^[22]?

[22] They are alluding to the believers.

වාක්‍යය: 63

أَتَّخَذۡنَٰهُمۡ سِخۡرِيًّا أَمۡ زَاغَتۡ عَنۡهُمُ ٱلۡأَبۡصَٰرُ

Is it that we mistakenly made fun of them, or do our eyes fail to see them [in the Fire]?”

වාක්‍යය: 64

إِنَّ ذَٰلِكَ لَحَقّٞ تَخَاصُمُ أَهۡلِ ٱلنَّارِ

This is certainly true that the people of the Fire will dispute among themselves.

වාක්‍යය: 65

قُلۡ إِنَّمَآ أَنَا۠ مُنذِرٞۖ وَمَا مِنۡ إِلَٰهٍ إِلَّا ٱللَّهُ ٱلۡوَٰحِدُ ٱلۡقَهَّارُ

Say [O Prophet], “I am only a warner, and none has the right to be worshiped except Allah, the One, the Subjugator,

වාක්‍යය: 66

رَبُّ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلۡأَرۡضِ وَمَا بَيۡنَهُمَا ٱلۡعَزِيزُ ٱلۡغَفَّٰرُ

Lord of the heavens and earth and all that is between them, the All-Mighty^[23], Most Forgiving^[24].”

[23] Honored for absolute power, wisdom, and justice.
[24] Who repeatedly conceals the sins of His slaves.

වාක්‍යය: 67

قُلۡ هُوَ نَبَؤٌاْ عَظِيمٌ

Say, “This [Qur’an] is of momentous news

වාක්‍යය: 68

أَنتُمۡ عَنۡهُ مُعۡرِضُونَ

from which you are turning away.”

වාක්‍යය: 69

مَا كَانَ لِيَ مِنۡ عِلۡمِۭ بِٱلۡمَلَإِ ٱلۡأَعۡلَىٰٓ إِذۡ يَخۡتَصِمُونَ

[And say], “I had no knowledge of the highest assembly [of angels] when they were disputing [about Adam]^[25].

[25] When the angels obeyed Allah’s command to prostrate before Adam; whereas, Satan refused to comply, for he considered himself superior to Adam, neglecting the fact that this was a command from Allah Almighty.

වාක්‍යය: 70

إِن يُوحَىٰٓ إِلَيَّ إِلَّآ أَنَّمَآ أَنَا۠ نَذِيرٞ مُّبِينٌ

I have only received revelation in order to give a clear warning.”

වාක්‍යය: 71

إِذۡ قَالَ رَبُّكَ لِلۡمَلَٰٓئِكَةِ إِنِّي خَٰلِقُۢ بَشَرٗا مِّن طِينٖ

[Remember] when your Lord said to the angels, “I am going to create a human being from clay.

වාක්‍යය: 72

فَإِذَا سَوَّيۡتُهُۥ وَنَفَخۡتُ فِيهِ مِن رُّوحِي فَقَعُواْ لَهُۥ سَٰجِدِينَ

When I completed his creation and breathed into him of My spirit^[26], fall down in prostration to him.”

[26] See footnote 15:29.

වාක්‍යය: 73

فَسَجَدَ ٱلۡمَلَٰٓئِكَةُ كُلُّهُمۡ أَجۡمَعُونَ

Then the angels fell down in prostration all together,

වාක්‍යය: 74

إِلَّآ إِبۡلِيسَ ٱسۡتَكۡبَرَ وَكَانَ مِنَ ٱلۡكَٰفِرِينَ

except Iblīs, who was arrogant and became one of the disbelievers^[27].

[27] This command of Allah to bow down before Adam was a test of obedience. Satan refused to comply out of arrogance for he thought he was better than Adam.
