This article lists all occurrences of the words shaytan (sometimes transliterated as shaitan) and angel(s) in the Qur'an.

Shaytan

In the islamic mythology, Allah created invisible beings called "jinns". Some of the jinns are muslims (they obey Allah) and others are shaytans (they disobey Allah). The most important shaytan is Iblees. Shaytans follow Iblees. The word shaytan has two meanings in the Qur'an, either it refers to a non-believing jinn(s) or it refers to Iblees himself. It depends on the context.

88 81:25 شَيْطَٰنٍ a Shaytan singular 70

So the word appears 70 times in its singular form, including one occurrence with a prefix (19:45).

When counting all the forms, it appears 88 times, including 4 occurrences with prefixes (19:45, 19:68, 38:37 and 67:5) and 1 occurrence with a suffix (2:14).

This word count is questionable. Firstly, the word has two meanings "a regular shaytaan;;" and "Iblees". Then, there is the question whether to count only the singular form and whether to include the words with prefixes and whether to include the words with suffixes.
