Tafsir of 7:21
Shaytan's Deceit with Adam and Hawwa' and Their eating from the Forbidden Tree Allah states that He allowed Adam and his wife to dwell in Paradise and to eat from all of its fruits, except one tree.

Surely, if you eat from this tree, you will attain both, he said. In another Ayah, قَالَ يَادَمُ هَلْ أَدُلُّكَ عَلَى شَجَرَةِ الْخُلْدِ وَمُلْكٍ لاَّ يَبْلَى (Shaytan whispered to him, saying: "O Adam!

Here, the wording is similar, so it means, `so that you do not become angels' as in; يُبَيِّنُ اللَّهُ لَكُمْ أَن تَضِلُّواْ ((Thus) does Allah make clear to you (His Law) lest you go astray.…
