Following Satanic Footsteps and Ignoring Allah’s Blessings!

The sole purpose of Muslim’s creation is to follow the orders of Allah Almighty and neglecting the traps and tribulations of Satan. 

 Following the commandments of Allah is the mere path of absolution and redemption as the day of Resurrection, which is the eternal place for Muslims while the ignorant and arrogant ones will taste Hellfire as the wrath of God. Allah, then will say to the ignorant souls on the Day of Reckoning that:

“Did I not enjoin upon you, O children of Adam, that you not worship Satan - [for] indeed, he is to you a clear enemy.” [36:60]

Muslims having strong faith will never fall for the whispers of Satan, who has challenged Lord while expelling from heaven that he will persuade them towards isolation and will sink them deep into transgression. Quran that is a complete package of guidance revealed a chapter in which Lord has warned His followers not to follow Satan rather to glorify Him for His blessed bounties and favors. Probing Surah Rahman with translation reveals the clear meanings of creation and exaltation of Lord by thanking Him for His divine creations and blessings.

Following Satan– Utmost Destruction:

When Allah created Adam and asked the angels to prostrate in front of Him, Satan due to arrogance denied Lord’s order and due to his disobedience, he was expelled from heaven. Since then Satan has become the symbol of destruction for the Lord’s worshipers and Allah asked His followers to follow His doctrines for solace and eternal peace.
Weak humans succumb easily to the tricks of Satan and start cursing nature for their ordeals rather pleading mercy and forgiveness for their hardships. Allah has blessed humans with so many favors that are innumerable yet man is selfish enough to revert and curse for his luck by deviating from the path of righteousness. In aforementioned Surah, Allah has asked the followers that “which of the favors of thy lord will you deny” pertaining to the favors since creation till heavenly bounties. Allah has clearly warned the humans from satanic lullabies by saying:

“[Allah] said (to Satan), "Get out of Paradise, reproached and expelled. Whoever follows you among them - I will surely fill Hell with you, all together.” [7:18]

Satanic Tricks and Tactics:

Satan is on an evident mission to detract Muslims from their eternal obligation. The tricks and tactics of Satan are attractive enough that trapped one in its charm to make him a person of world rather eternity. Tricks comprise:

• Instilling love of this temporary world in his mind and sinking him deep into lavishness.
• Forcing him to forget the Day of death that everyone will taste eventually and will face Allah for accountability of deeds
• Cultivate pride, arrogance, love for lucrative desires, forgetting the rights of kith and kin and keep hatred for fellow beings by considering oneself mighty enough than others.
• Boasting and showing off deeds by considering other degraded ones.
• Denying the decree of Lord by following satanic footsteps rather to open the Quran and refer back to his original purpose of creation.
• Relying on temporarily support rather to invoke Lord for one’s calamities and ordeals
• Cursing fate for one’s hardships, belittling sins, and then expecting from Allah that magic will happen to keep him at ease and contented by heart
• Avoid helping the deserving and needy ones by ignoring their needs.

A true devoted Muslim should avoid all these aforementioned tricks to attain the level of mercy from the Lord at Doomsday. Avoid and be deaf to these whispers that leads to invoking wrath of Allah Almighty.
