إِنَّ الْمَلَائِكَةَ كَانُوا يَحْسَبُونَ أَنَّ إِبْلِيسَ مِنْهُمْ وَ كَانَ فِي عِلْمِ اللَّهِ أَنَّهُ لَيْسَ مِنْهُمْ فَاسْتَخْرَجَ مَا فِي نَفْسِهِ بِالْحَمِيَّةِ وَ الْغَضَبِ فَقَالَ خَلَقْتَنِي مِنْ نارٍ وَ خَلَقْتَهُ مِنْ طِينٍ .


Translation

From him, from his father, from Fazalat, from Dawood Bin Farqad, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> having said: ‘The Angels used to reckon that Iblees<sup>la</sup> was from them, and it was in the Knowledge of Allah<sup>azwj</sup> that he<sup>la</sup> was not from them. So whatever was within himself<sup>la</sup> came out with the prejudice and the anger, so he<sup>la</sup> said: ‘You<sup>azwj</sup> Created me<sup>la</sup> from fire and Created him (Adam<sup>as</sup>) from clay’’.
