Punished

This comes from Sura 2 - "The Cow." The quote is:

"34. Remember, when We asked the angels to bow in homage to Adam, they all bowed but Iblis, who disdained and turned insolent, and so became a disbeliever."

And also Sura 7 - "Wall Between Heaven and Hell." The quote is:

"Verily We created you and gave you form and shape, and ordered the angels to bow before Adam in homage; and they all bowed but Iblis who was not among those who bowed. 12. 'What prevented you' (said God), 'from bowing (before Adam) at My bidding?' 'I am better than him,' said he. 'You created me from fire and him from clay.' 13. So God said: 'Descend. You have no right to be insolent here. Go, and away; you are one of the damned.'"
