Exalted is Allah, the True King! Do not rush to recite ˹a revelation of˺ the Quran ˹O Prophet˺ before it is ˹properly˺ conveyed to you,1 and pray, “My Lord! Increase me in knowledge.” 20:114
And indeed, We once made a covenant with Adam, but he forgot, and ˹so˺ We did not find determination in him. 20:115
And ˹remember˺ when We said to the angels, “Prostrate before Adam,” so they all did—but not Iblîs,1 who refused ˹arrogantly˺. 20:116
So We cautioned, “O Adam! This is surely an enemy to you and to your wife. So do not let him drive you both out of Paradise, for you ˹O Adam˺ would then suffer ˹hardship˺. 20:117
Here it is guaranteed that you will never go hungry or unclothed, 20:118
nor will you ˹ever˺ suffer from thirst or ˹the sun’s˺ heat.”1  20:119
But Satan whispered to him, saying, “O Adam! Shall I show you the Tree of Immortality and a kingdom that does not fade away?” 20:120
So they both ate from the tree and then their nakedness was exposed to them, prompting them to cover themselves with leaves from Paradise. So Adam disobeyed his Lord, and ˹so˺ lost his way.1 20:121
Then his Lord chose him ˹for His grace˺, accepted his repentance, and guided him ˹rightly˺. 20:122
Allah said, “Descend, both of you, from here together ˹with Satan˺ as enemies to each other. Then when guidance comes to you from Me, whoever follows My guidance will neither go astray ˹in this life˺ nor suffer ˹in the next˺. 20:123
But whoever turns away from My Reminder will certainly have a miserable life,1 then We will raise them up blind on the Day of Judgment.” 20:124
They will cry, “My Lord! Why have you raised me up blind, although I used to see?” 20:125
