Comparative Religion - The human condition in world religions

Comparative Religion - The human condition in world religions: "Allah created Adam and commanded that he be worshiped by all angels. Satan (Iblis) opposed this command and only then was he banished from heaven:


And surely, We created you (your father Adam) and then gave you shape (the noble shape of a human being), then We told the angels, 'Prostrate to Adam';, and they prostrated, except Iblis (Satan), he refused to be of those who prostrate. Allah said: 'What prevented you Iblis, that you did not prostrate, when I commanded you?' Iblis said: 'I am better than him (Adam), You created me from fire, and him You created from clay. Allah said: 'O, Iblis, get down from this (Paradise), it is not for you to be arrogant here. Get out, for you are of those humiliated and disgraced.' (Quran 7,11-13)"
