What is the reason Satan hates humans according to scripture? Were we in anyway responsible for his fall according to the Bible? Why is he dedicated to our destruction? By way of analogy, the Islamic tradition is that God created humans to be higher than the angels and other spirits (ostensibly because a human being goes through many trials in his path to loving and worshipping God). That God gave the angels and other spiritual beings a test that they failed but Adam passed it. As a result, God ordered the angels and other spirits to bow down to Adam (in honor, recognition or veneration like one bows to a King). They all accepted but Satan said: "I can not bow down to a mere mortal made from clay. I am superior to him." God cursed Satan and banished him from His presence and all those who follow Satan. Satan, thus, blames Adam for his fall, instead of blaming his own pride/self.
