Does Iblis have offspring, and were his offspring through marriage, and does he have a wife?

The noble verse (Do you then take him and his offspring as allies instead of Me?) indicates that Satan has offspring, and anything that contradicts the explicit text of the Quran is false. The method of his procreation—whether through marriage or otherwise—has no explicit textual evidence. Scholars have differed on this; some have inferred from the verse that offspring necessitates a spouse, while others have mentioned opinions that are unreliable due to their lack of supporting evidence. A hadith (definition) states, "Do not be the first to enter the market nor the last to leave it, for in it Satan lays his eggs and hatches his young," which indicates that Satan has offspring. However, the implication of this hadith is not free from possibility, as it might be an example or a metaphor, meaning that Satan did therein as he pleased of misguidance, temptation, and whispering.
