They followed what
the Shayatin (devils) gave out (falsely of the magic) in the lifetime of
Sulaiman (Solomon). Sulaiman did not disbelieve, but the Shayatin (devils)
disbelieved, teaching men magic and such things that came down at Babylon
to the two angels, Harut and Marut, but neither of these two
(angels) taught anyone (such things) till `they had said, "We are for
trial, so disbelieve not (by learning this magic from us)." And from these
(angels) people learn that by which they cause separation between man and
his wife, but they could not thus harm anyone except by Allah's Leave. And
they learn that which harms them and profits them not. And indeed they
knew that the buyers of it (magic) would have no share in the Hereafter.
And how bad indeed was that for which they sold their ownselves, if
they but knew.
