[quote]What a futile exercise in obscurantism is going on! What difference does it make if Satan is called an angel or a jin. Which one is superior, the episode does not tell. But it does tell that the human, made in the very image of God, is superior than both the angels and the jins. So the controversies involved in the episode can be resolved as follows: 1. The angels were made to prostrate before Adam, apparently opposed to the dictates f 'Touheed', as he was created in the image of God, not only that: God had blown His spirit into him. What a pity that man (Karamna bani-aadam) bows before idols of all kinds including so called 'Ullema e karaam'. 2. Satan was an angel by creation but unlike other angels he started using his brain, and so was promoted or demoted as a gin or genius. What happens to us when we start using our brains in our every daily practical life. As an Urdu poet says: Jhukne walon ne rifatein paaein Aur ham khudi ko buland karte rahe[/quote]
