Satan and Prophet Adam

17/6/2016, 12 Ramadan 1437

Then Allah asked Satan to obey Adam the human, but he refused because arrogantly he said that he was created of fire, and human of clay. Thats the beginning of Satan rebel to Allah sw.t, and he swore to Allah that he will make human astray until Qiyamat (doomsday).
