Instead, I believe in the story mentioned in the Quran; here are the Quranic verses:
No, he refused to prostrate to the new creation of God because he was extremely racist:
Quote:Sura 38, The Quran:
https://quran.com/38?startingVerse=75
(75) Allah asked, “O Iblîs! What prevented you from prostrating to what I created with My Own Hands? Did you ˹just˺ become proud? Or have you always been arrogant?”
(76) He replied, “I am better than he is: You created me from fire and him from clay.”
(77) Allah commanded, “Then get out of Paradise, for you are truly cursed.
(78) And surely upon you is My condemnation until the Day of Judgment.”
(79) Satan appealed, “My Lord! Then delay my end until the Day of their resurrection.”
(80) Allah said, “You will be delayed
(81) until the appointed Day.”
(82) Satan said, “By Your Glory! I will certainly mislead them all,
(83) except Your chosen servants among them.”
Satan's objection was clear: a creature of fire (him) shall never prostrate to a creature of mud (human being).
Racism is a satanic deed.
