The English translation of the first part of the verse ‘We said to the angels bow down to Adam: they bowed down except Iblis’, gives us the impression that Iblis was an angel. The Qur’an was revealed in Arabic. In Arabic grammar there is a rule known as Tagleeb, according to which, if the majority is addressed, even the minority is included. If for example, I address a class containing 100 students of whom 99 are boys and one is a girl, and if I say in Arabic that the boys should stand up, it includes the girl as well. I need not mention her separately. Similarly in the Qur’an, when Allah addressed the angels, even Iblis was present, but it is not required that he be mentioned separately. Therefore according to that sentence Iblis may be an angel or may not be an angel, but we come to know from Surah Al Kahf chapter 18 verse 50 that Iblis was a Jinn. No where does the Qur’an say Iblis was an angel. Therefore there is no contradiction in the Qur’an.

I love your channel! I have been always looking for an easy to understand and simple answers to questions I've had. I was a Sunni but the quranest simplicity makes me understand more.

Salamun Alaikum watch marvelous Quran ytb by Dr.Hany for most comprehensive understanding to get to know who is Satan and Jinn

Excellent.. Thanks for posting... May GOD rewards more.

Great work well explained

awesome video. please post more!

he was definitely ranked as a superior Angel giving the fact he even thought about being a ‘God’ so i assume he was in the highest in the hierarchy of the ‘high society’. Allah knows best.

Salam brother, mashaAllah excellent explanation…

What if among the angels , are different creatures who deserved the angel position 🤔... It seem to me like he was among the angels , but he was not honest , and only God knew his true intentions ... God knows best .

Amazing

I've had these same thoughts and ideas myself before about if Jinn is the Quranic term for what Christians call a fallen angel, so it's interesting to hear someone else think of this, also when you said about how this verse has been mistranslated and should have been translated that he became a jinn instead of he was of the jinn was something I didn't know. Thanks

Awsome

Surah 18, verse 50 clearly states that Iblees was a Jinn. The same has been mentioned in a detailed comment by a brother in this thread. Do read that.

Can you do a video on ma malakat aymanukum and slavery

👍👍

Although I totally agree with you that Iblis is explicitly a fallen angel. But in my opinion, jinns are a subset of angels. Jinns might precisely be the word for fallen angels in the Quran. Or at least, a group or subset of angels who were created by fire.

Brother i believe what you say 'SATAN was a angel and he became of the JINN after disobeying ALLAH almighty 'but i am confused about one thing 'when SATAN says to ALLAH 'i am better than him you created him from MUD and created me from from fire. Because ALLAH created Angle from light and created JINN from fire 'the confusing part is for me 'that JINN are made from fire not light . Reply back to me with your understanding 'remember brother 'we are all students of QURAN 'and we should investigate every subject only from QURAN 'because all our questions are answered by the book. ALLAH has left nothing out of this book concerning our faith 6-38. Please reply back with your understanding.

Plz make a video on why Allah differenciates Between iddah period of..... Divorce and Widow

I love your videos man jazakallahu khayran, one question: If Satan was made from fire, how was he an angel? Weren't the angels made of light or is that from a hadith? Does the Quran say anything about the creation of angels?

What if " Angel" is a rank ? Cause Iblies justifies his disobedience due the fact that he was created from fire , Adam , created from clay.

Satan said you created me from fire are the angels created from fire or light

This guy is just made Iblees confused of his existence🤦‍♂️😂🤣, I mean how do you manage to confuse the one follow🤭😂🤣😜✌

Are you saying all angels are made from scorching fire. Please answer me

15:30 all the angels prostrated. “Kulhum ajma3n” all of the entirely. Every angel. Except Iblees. The except is for the word “prostrate” not for “malaaika” if you want to hold the belief that iblees is an angel you must address this issue as it kneecaps your agrument

And how do you know this? Were ur evidence besides using your own reason?.

Why are you misinterpreting the Quran, the Malaika are a kind who will never disobey Allah(SWT) thats how they were created, remember that Allah also talked about how he gave the jinn and insaan free will.

You should really read the Quran in Arabic not this half tafseer half translation that people put out today. And to bring up the corrupted bible?? (isaiah is not even torah not even torah!!) Jew or Muslim u must pick one

Don't believe this guy.
