His name was Iblis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Now, Iblis wasn&rsquo;t an angel, but a jinn who was elevated among them because of his devotion, but his pride led him astray.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He argued he was superior to Adam since he was made of fire while Adam was made of clay, and so he fell from grace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">From that moment on, Iblis became known as Shaytan. He was cast out and given permission to<strong> tempt and mislead<\/strong> humanity until the end of time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So, in Islamic belief, Shaytan isn&rsquo;t a fallen angel, but a<strong> fallen jinn<\/strong>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">His refusal to bow to Adam reflected on his entire kind, making them dangerous and evil in our eyes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5.
