Translation
(34) God said, ‘Then get out of here; for you are accursed, (35) and the curse shall be on you till the Day of Judgement!’ (36) Satan said, ‘O my Lord! Grant me respite till the Day of Resurrection.’ (37) He said, ‘You are granted respite (38) till that Appointed Day.’
Commentary
(b) The turn of events after the creation of the first human made Satan the permanent enemy of humanity. Now, till Doomsday, man is within the range of Satan’s evil. It is imperative that man should be vigilant against the fraudulence of Satan. It is in this present world that the decision is taken about both a man’s success and his failure.
