![]() ![]() A’ mash said: He then embraces him.Īllah has created for every human, his assigned shaitan (Qareen) who whispers to him to perform bad deeds, but a Muslim should struggle oneself not to succumb to shaitan insinuations. Satan goes near him and says: ‘You have done well. Then one amongst them comes and says: I did not spare so and so until I sowed the seed of discord between a husband and a wife. One of them comes and says: I did so and so. Allah warned us from Shaitan steps to beautify sins to Muslims, he ordered us not to follow shaitan, he is our clear enemy.Īs narrated in the hadeeth, Iblis places his throne upon water he then sends detachments (for creating dissension) the nearer to him in the tank are those who are most notorious in creating dissension. The word is associated with evil, cunning, plotting, killing oneself, disobedience to Allah, enmity, niggardliness, disbelieving in Allah, false promises, deception, stealing, associating deities to Allah, magic, superstitious, ….all bad and evil acts.Īllah revealed in the Quran all Shiatan ways and tactics to misguide and deceive mankind, Muslim should be aware of these tricks as not to fall deeply in sins and go astray. Needless to say, that the term “Iblis” or “shaitan” or reference of these terms, is mentioned in almost all surahs of the Quran. Once they tasted from the tree, their private parts started to uncover and they tried to pick from the tree leaves to hide their private parts, Allah blamed them for approaching the tree and then he accepted their repentance when they asked his forgiveness, but he ordered them to descend down to earth, the place where they live and die, some of them are enemies to others. Upon Iblis insinuations, Adam succumbed to Iblis and ate from the forbidden tree, Allah said in the Quran : ” Adam has disobeyed Allah, he went Astray “. He then asked for a reprieve until judgment day, he promised to mislead and misguide all slaves of Allah.Īllah commanded Adam and his wife, Eve to reside in Jannah and to enjoy eating everything except one tree or else they will among the wrongdoers, But Adam misinterpreted Allah’s words and thought he should not eat from the fruit of this tree, besides Iblis whispered to Adam in a cunning manner and convinced him to eat from the tree saying ” Shall I guide you to the tree of eternity and the endless sovereignty?” Iblis vowed to Adam that he is one of the sincere. Iblis felt jealousness, thought highly of himself, he thought of the authority Allah has given him, so he wanted to honour himself by refusal, whereas he humiliated himself, his cunning mind led him to hell. Scholars mentioned Iblis to be the first one who used analogical reasoning. All angels obeyed Allah and bowed down to Adam except Iblis, who refused in arrogance saying: I am better than him, You created me from fire while created him from the mud. ![]() (“Ablas” means in Arabic despaired of Mercy)Īllah has created Adam, the father of mankind from clay, he breathed into him of his spirit and commanded the angels to prostrate to him as a sign of respect and honour. Quran referred to Iblis, as one of the angels but he disobeyed Allah out of his arrogance, so Allah expelled him out of his mercy and called him Iblis. Most of the scholars agreed that Iblis was one of the angels,he has four wings, Allah has given him authority over earth, as he was the most knowledgeable, the most devoted to worship, he belongs to the Jinn sect – keepers of paradise – and his name was Azazel.Al Hasan Al-Basri said: ” Iblis was not one of the angels ever”, he is the father of the Jinn.The answer to this question has been a controversial issue between scholars across decades we hereby present the two views as being referred to by the prominent Scholar, Ibn Katheer in his book (Story of the beginning and the end): But is Iblis one of the jinn or one of the angels? ![]() ![]() But who is Iblis?Īllah has created Jinn before Prophet Adam where they dwelled on earth, but when Jinn committed evil, blood shedding and killed each other, Allah has sent down angels and Iblis to fight them, as a result Jinn was killed and the rest was banished to live in sea islands. Angels don’t reproduce nor eat or drink, they are commanded to obey Allah and they cannot disobey him. Some of them are Muslim and some are not, some are believers, others are not. The reason for creating Mankind and jinn is to worship Allah alone, both have free will, they reproduce, eat and drink, both are legally competent, they are commanded to obey Allah. Ways to defeat Shaitan Allah has created mankind, angels and Jinn as he mentioned in the Quran, mankind was created from smooth clay, angels from light and jinn from fire. ![]()
