قَالُوْا سُبْحٰنَكَ اَنْتَ وَلِیُّنَا مِنْ دُوْنِهِمْ ۚ بَلْ كَانُوْا یَعْبُدُوْنَ الْجِنَّ ۚ اَكْثَرُهُمْ بِهِمْ مُّؤْمِنُوْنَ ۟

Saheeh International
They will say, "Exalted are You! You, [O Allāh], are our benefactor excluding [i.e., not] them. Rather, they used to worship the jinn; most of them were believers in them."
Al-Mukhtasar fi Tafsir
The angels will say: “You are pure and exalted. You are our guardian, not them, so there is no friendship between us and them, but rather these idolaters used to worship the satans. They used to appear to them as angels, so they would worship them besides Allah, most of them were believers in them”.
