* تفسير Tafsir al-Jalalayn

{ وَلَقَدْ خَلَقْنَاكُمْ ثُمَّ صَوَّرْنَاكُمْ ثُمَّ قُلْنَا لِلْمَلاۤئِكَةِ ٱسْجُدُواْ لأَدَمَ فَسَجَدُوۤاْ إِلاَّ إِبْلِيسَ لَمْ يَكُنْ مِّنَ ٱلسَّاجِدِينَ }

And We created you that is your father Adam then shaped you that is We shaped him with you deposited in his back then said to the angels ‘Prostrate yourselves before Adam!’ a prostration that is a bow of salutation. So they fell prostrate all save Iblīs the father of the jinn who was among the angels — he was not of those who make prostration.
