Commentary (Tafsir Ibn Kathir)
Sending Them All Down to EarthIt was said that,اهْبِطُواْ(Get down), was addressed to Adam, Hawwa', Iblis and the snake. Some scholars did not mention the snake, and Allah knows best. The enmity is primarily between Adam and Iblis, and Hawwa' follows Adam in this regard. Allah said in Surah Ta Ha, اهْبِطَا مِنْهَا جَمِيعاً("Get you down (from the Paradise to the earth), both of you, together...") 20:123. If the story about the snake is true, then it is a follower of Iblis.
