In the name of Allah who is most gracious most merciful
Origins and the creation of Shaitan
Here is the story of the creation of Shaitan in the Words of Allah Almighty Himself
Surah Şād verse No.71 to 85
Before creating Hazrat Adam(A.S) Allah told the angels that He was going to create a human being from clay of smooth black mud. Allah told them that when He finished creating and forming him, they were to prostrate to him as a sign of respect.. All of the angels obeyed this command except for Iblis. He was one of the Jinn. He refused to prostrate to Adam, and he disputed with his Lord about him. He claiming that he was better than Adam, because he was created from fire while Adam was created from clay. He made a mistake by doing this. He went against the command of Allah, thus committing the sin of disbelief. So Allah exiled him, humiliated him, and cast him out of His mercy and called him "Iblis''.He cast him down from the heavens, disgraced and rejected, to the earth. Iblis asked Allah to give him a reprieve until the Day of Resurrection, so the Forbearing One, Who does not hasten to punish those who disobey Him, gave him a reprieve. When he knew that he was safe from destruction until the Day of Resurrection, he rebelled .
How does he work?
"Shaitan knows that he can't make a Muslim commit major sins at will, so he starts by telling us to commit smaller sins. . Then he tells us to commit a bigger sin, which in fact looks like a small sin at the time. Shaitan continues this until we start committing major sins. Shaitan works by causing us to doubt our beliefs and makes us either too negligent or too over zealous about our religion, depending on what's easier for him."The best way Shaitan can help us on our way to Hell is by making it easier for us to commit sins.
Shaitan's weapons of mass destruction
Many of these are things that ordinary people tell good Muslims in order to encourage them to commit sins. Shaitan, don't try to pull their hair off or something to check.
Shaitan is an open and sworn enemy of Muslims, and if one is going to fight an enemy it is absolutely essential to understand the tactics which Shaitan is going to use to fight .Shaitan attacks Muslims at every stage of their faith, when they are negligent, he keeps them negligent, when they are perfect he makes them proud. Shaitan uses tactics ranging from making you look for excuses and reasons not to do certain good deeds. He even uses laziness as a weapon. To get you to do evil he makes the evil seem so pleasurable that it becomes extremely hard to resist. He makes the forbidden seem lawful, and the lawful seem forbidden.
Committing a Sin
Any Muslim with a decent amount of faith always knows when he is committing a sin, however, he will always try to justify it somehow. There is no justification for any sin whatsoever no matter how easily it may seem justifiable at the time. Now when a Muslim who thinks that nothing can harm him at the moment is confronted with a desire . He will feel uncomfortable at the beginning having to choose between his desire and Allah, and will look for any solution to his dilemma to return to a state of comfort.
Shaitan enters the thought of man
Shaitan at this point will immediately enter the following thought in the person's mind in order to return him to a state of comfort
On the Day when Hell-fire shall cover them from above them and from under their feet, and it will be said: "Taste what you used to do,"
29:55
Truly, Hell is a - dwelling place for those who transgress the boundary limits set by Allah .
They will abide there in for ages,
Nothing cool shall they taste therein, nor any drink,except boiling water, and dirty wound discharges-
Verily those for whom the good has preceded from Ms, they will be removed far there from Hell
They shall not hear the slightest sound of if (Hell), while they abide in that which their ownselves desire
The greatest terror (on the Day of Resurrection) will not grieve them, and the angels will meet them, (with the greeting): "This is your Day which you were promised,"
21:97-103
Repetance
Allah says"Despair not of the Mercy of Allah, verily Allah forgives all sins, Truly, He is Oft- Forgiving, Most Merciful,And turn in repentance and in obedience with true Faith to your Lord and submit to Him , before the torment comes Apon you, then you will not be helped.
39:53-54
Repentance is Allah's greatest gift to a Muslim. Muslims need to seek repentance not only for the sins that they have committed, but also for the religious obligations they have missed.
Three conditions have to be met in order for a Muslim to repent:
The Muslim must sincerely regret committing the act which he is repenting for.
The Muslim must immediately stop committing that act.
He must also promise not to commit that sin ever again, and stick to the promise.
Allah accepts only the repetence of those who do evil in ignorance and foolishness and repent soon afterwards; it is they to whom Allah will forgive and Allah Is Ever All-Knower, All-Wise,
And of no effect is the repetance of those who continue to do evil deeds until death faces one of them
The Muslim must ask for forgiveness from the person he has wronged and then seek Allah's forgiveness.
