60. Behold! We told thee that thy Lord doth encompass mankind round about: We
granted the vision which We showed thee, but as a trial for men,- as also the Cursed Tree
(mentioned) in the Qur'an: We put terror (and warning) into them, but it only increases
their inordinate transgression!
Section 7 (61-70)

Iblis: He said, "Shall I bow down to one whom Thou didst create from clay?"

wilt but respite me to the Day of Judgment, I will surely bring his descendants under my
sway - all but a few!"
