The difference between the fiery and the luminous

Question

Question: When Allah ﷻ created Hazrat Adam ﵇ and the command came, “Prostrate to Adam,” the angels prostrated, and the chief (Shaytan) refused to prostrate. The company of the angels is luminous (nuri), and the company of the chief (Shaytan) is of embers. So the luminous ones were named angels (mala’ika); what was the name of those of embers?

Answer
