Sura 7 Al-A'raf (The Heights), ayah 20

  1. فَوَسْوَسَ لَهُمَا الشَّيْطَانُ لِيُبْدِيَ لَهُمَا مَا وُورِيَ عَنْهُمَا مِنْ سَوْآتِهِمَا وَقَالَ مَا نَهَاكُمَا رَبُّكُمَا عَنْ هَٰذِهِ الشَّجَرَةِ إِلَّا أَنْ تَكُونَا مَلَكَيْنِ أَوْ تَكُونَا مِنَ الْخَالِدِينَ

    Translation by words

    فَوَسْوَسَ
    Then whispered
    لَهُمَا
    to both of them
    ٱلشَّيْطَٰنُ
    the Shaitaan
    لِيُبْدِىَ
    to make apparent
    لَهُمَا
    to both of them
    مَا
    what
    وُۥرِىَ
    was concealed
    عَنْهُمَا
    from both of them
    مِن
    of
    سَوْءَٰتِهِمَا
    their shame.
    وَقَالَ
    And he said,
    مَا
    "(Did) not
    نَهَىٰكُمَا
    forbid you both
    رَبُّكُمَا
    your Lord
    عَنْ
    from
    هَٰذِهِ
    this
    ٱلشَّجَرَةِ
    [the] tree
    إِلَّآ
    except
    أَن
    that
    تَكُونَا
    you two become
    مَلَكَيْنِ
    Angels
    أَوْ
    or
    تَكُونَا
    you two become
    مِنَ
    of
    ٱلْخَٰلِدِينَ
    the immortals."

    But Satan whispered to them to make apparent to them that which was concealed from them of their private parts. He said, "Your Lord did not forbid you this tree except that you become angels or become of the immortal."
