TEMPTER
Demon temptation



Satan is the greatest enemy of mankind. Satan enters into the heart of every man, whether he is a believer or an infidel. Satan continues to make efforts to bring incitement, evil, and evil into the human bosom.


The prophet Adam, the father of man, had to get out of heaven because he was tempted by his persuasion (QS al-Baqarah: 36). It is said that the devil will beat and attack people from all directions, so that humans are helpless and become infuriated with God.''Then I (demon/devil) will come to them (human) from their face and from behind them, from their right and from their left. And You will not find most of them grateful/obedient.'' (QS al - A'raaf: 17).


Allah SWT said:


“He (Devil) said, “My Lord, because You have decided that I am a heretic, I will surely make (evil) feel beautiful to them on earth, and I will mislead them all. Except for your servants who are chosen among them. He (God) said, “This is a straight path (towards) to Me”. Verily you (Devil) have no power over My servants, except those who follow you, who are perverts.” (QS Al Hijr: 39-42).


There are many ways that Satan does in seducing, seducing and misleading children of adam, and here are some of them:




Tazyin, or camouflage decorate things as if good.


Satan does not direct a person to sin and evil, but rather adorns it gradually, for example when one hears the doom on a winter night and says to him, “Stay relaxed in bed, and, you are tired and tired”.




Talbis, or deceiving.


Satan tries to deceive the human mind by convincing him that prohibition is actually permissible. For example, someone wants to get an interest-based loan from a bank to buy a house or apartment. So the devil told him that this loan was permissible, because it did not do evil to others.




Taswif, the devil also tries to incite others to delay repentance. Satan makes man continue to delay repentance, saying youth is the most beautiful stage, and repentance can be done at a later time.




Tahwin, belittling a small thing like a small sin.


Satan also invites man to belittle the petty sins. Satan declares that others commit far more sins.




Satan tries to keep man from being on a straight path.


This is because they must be more obedient, while others will be hostile and mock him.




At-Taiys, another attempt to make humans desperate in repentance.




Satan can also be present in people who are angry.






He made man high in wishful thinking, encouraged man to fear poverty, then he instigated man to get rich in the illegal way.




Satan also makes beautiful the ugliness of man, and intolerant of others. He continues to make people more fanatical, and motivates people to demean others.




So according to Imam Al-Gozali to guard and save himself from the steps of Satan's deceit, the believer must close all the entrance or access, so that the devil can not approach and control us.


Imam Ghazali also remarked, there is no way that someone can close the access if they do not know the entrance or the doors. This means that the first task to be done is to recognize the doors, then close them tightly so that the enemy cannot get close because of the loss of access.Among the doors that must be recognized, according to Imam Ghazali, he said, it is the door of anger and orgasm, the door of envy and envy, the door of excessive drinking, the door of love of the world, the door of haste, and the door of prejudice to fellow Muslims. In another opinion, Imam Ghazali also described demons as hungry dogs that always approach. If our heart is dirty, in the sense of many ''devil''' in it, then it will continue to attack.It will not run away just by bluffing or by reading ta'awwuz or hawqalah. But, if our heart is clean, then by just mentioning the asthma of God, he has run away.


So, the deceit of Satan has no effect on the pious whose soul and heart are clean. The word of Allah is that Satan has no power over those who believe and rely on his Lord.'' (Qs an-Nahl: 99).


So from the description above as a warning and guideline so that Muslims are not easy to follow and how to guard and fortify themselves from the steps of Satan. ''O mankind, eat the good of what is on earth, and do not follow the steps of Satan, for he is the real enemy to you.'' (QS al-Baqarah: 168).


May AllaH SWT always keep and protect us from all the deceit and temptations of the devil Aamiin Ya Robbal ‘Alamain


SATAN has promised that he will always disturb and tempt people. They do that so that we, as the children of the Prophet Adam, disbelieve in Allah SWT. Thus, we will follow in the footsteps of Satan who has clearly contradicted what God commanded. That way, the devil will have friends to accompany him in hell.


Once the devil can tempt man then he will also be able to master the man. There are certain reasons that make demons can dominate humans. There are at least 4 reasons, namely:




The destruction of man himself. A Muslim who neglects to remember Allah, or who does what Allah forbids, means to devote himself to the rule of demons and evil jinn.




Humans perform “crime” on jinn, which is usually, done accidentally. For example, dropping a heavy item in a place where there is a jinn, without mentioning the name of Allah. Or spilling hot water, without mentioning the name of Allah, who can kill the sons of the jinn. Once there is an opportunity, people who do not think of Allah will be dominated by the jinn/demons.




Loved by the male genie. This usually happens to women who are dandy or women who go out to show their beauty. Another example is women who wear nail polish, which can block ablution water. If her husband hates her, and she then takes a mandatory bath, then the bath is useless because it does not remove the great hadas. When he left the house, he was still in a junub state. Satan and the genie love women like this. The woman who is holy and wearing a veil, her face will be covered with a veil by Allah so that the jinn/demons cannot see her face even though their gaze is very sharp.




People are either too happy or too sad. This is an easy entrance for the jinn/demons.
