وَ اِذْ And when قُلْنَا We said لِلْمَلٰٓىِٕكَةِ to the Angels اسْجُدُوْا Prostrate لِاٰدَمَ to Adam فَسَجَدُوْۤا so they prostrated اِلَّاۤ except اِبْلِیْسَ ؕ Iblis كَانَ (He) was مِنَ of الْجِنِّ the jinn فَفَسَقَ and he rebelled عَنْ against اَمْرِ the Command رَبِّهٖ ؕ (of) his Lord اَفَتَتَّخِذُوْنَهٗ Will you then take him وَ ذُرِّیَّتَهٗۤ and his offspring اَوْلِیَآءَ (as) protectors مِنْ other than Me دُوْنِیْ other than Me وَ هُمْ while they لَكُمْ (are) to you عَدُوٌّ ؕ enemies بِئْسَ Wretched لِلظّٰلِمِیْنَ for the wrongdoers بَدَلًا (is) the exchange مَاۤ Not اَشْهَدْتُّهُمْ I made them witness خَلْقَ the creation السَّمٰوٰتِ (of) the heavens وَ الْاَرْضِ and the earth وَ لَا and not خَلْقَ the creation اَنْفُسِهِمْ ۪ (of) themselves وَ مَا and not كُنْتُ I Am مُتَّخِذَ the One to take الْمُضِلِّیْنَ the misleaders عَضُدًا (as) helper(s) وَ یَوْمَ And the Day یَقُوْلُ He will say نَادُوْا Call شُرَكَآءِیَ My partners الَّذِیْنَ those who زَعَمْتُمْ you claimed فَدَعَوْهُمْ then they will call them فَلَمْ but not یَسْتَجِیْبُوْا they will respond لَهُمْ to them وَ جَعَلْنَا And We will make بَیْنَهُمْ between them مَّوْبِقًا a barrier وَ رَاَ And will see الْمُجْرِمُوْنَ the criminals النَّارَ the Fire فَظَنُّوْۤا and they (will be) certain اَنَّهُمْ that they مُّوَاقِعُوْهَا are to fall in it وَ لَمْ And not یَجِدُوْا they will find عَنْهَا from it مَصْرِفًا۠ a way of escape
(18:50) (Recall) when We said to the angels, “Prostrate yourselves before ’Ādam.” So, they prostrated themselves, all of them but Iblīs (Satan). He was of the Jinn, so he rebelled against the command of your Lord. Do you still take him and his progeny as friends instead of Me, while they are enemy to you? Evil is he as substitute (of obedience to Allah) for wrongdoers
(18:51) I did not make them witnesses of the creation of the heavens and the earth, nor of their own creation. I was not such that I should take the misleaders as helpers
(18:52) (Recall) the Day when He will say, “Call My ‘partners’ whom you claimed as such.” So, they will call them, but they will not respond to them, and We will put a destructive barrier between them
(18:53) And the sinners will see the Fire; so they will know that they will have to fall into it, and they will find no way to bypass it
The progeny of Iblis, and his descendants and followers
The word: ذُرِّ‌يَّتَهُ (dhurriyyatah) in verse 50 indicates that Iblis (Shaitan) has offspring, and a host of descendants and followers. Some commentators have said that 'progeny' at this place means 'accomplices.' That the Shaitan has offspring from his loins is not necessary. But, there is a Sahih Hadith which Humaidi has reported in Kitab al-Jam' bain al-Sahihain on the authority of Sayyidna Salman al-Farisi ؓ . According to his narration, the Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم told him, "do not become like those who are the first to enter the bazaar (shopping centre), or those who are the last to leave it, for the bazaar is a place where the Shaitan has his eggs and offspring laid around." This would indicate that the progeny of Shaitan spreads out in that manner - through what is laid and hatched by him. After having presented this report, al-Qurtubi has said that the Shaitan has accomplices and armies is something established by conclusive proofs - and as for the Shaitan having offspring, a Sahih Hadith has appeared above. Allah knows best.
