Satan is the bad enemy of
mankind
The Invisible open enemy of mankind. The
problem of all evil. He misguides by
whispering suggestions. Indeed his
whispers are extremely dangerous. The
quran has warned against following his
ways which are those against the orders of
Allah (God) mentioned in the Quran.

ISTI’ADHA
Isti’adha is to seek Allah’s protection against Shetan
and is one of the important aspects of faith and is
obligatory on every Muslim. It should be from the
depths of the heart of the person and not just the
repetition of the words through the mouth. The
reality requires one to seek freedom from the
accursed shetan and submit to Allah (S.w.T.) for His
help. If these two objectives are achieved, then the
Isti’adha is really Isti’adha! Otherwise it will just be
an exercise in futility.
THE 5 ASPECTS OF ISTI’ADHA
1. Takwa (Piety)
2. Tazakkur (Remembrance of Allah)
3. Tawakkul (Trust in Allah)
4. Ikhlas (Sincerity)
5. Aijizi (Humility towards Allah)
When a person practices all these five aspects,
his Isti’adha will be accepted by Allah (S.w.T.).
In other words, when Shetan comes to a mu’min
he becomes scared of man as an ordinary human
being gets scared of the company of Jinns.
TAKWA
Verily those who guard (themselves against evil) when an evil
thought from shetan afflicts them, they become mindful (of
God and get awakened) then lo! They are forthright. (Sura al-
A’raaf, 7:201)
Therefore, the very first condition for keeping oneself safe
from form shetan is to become pious. Those who adopted
piety, busy themselves in prayer whenever they have fears of
shetan in their hearts. They get enlightened that shetan created
the fears. They also realize that shetan had fled because of
their prayer and that they are in the protection of Allah
(S.w.T.). The ayat mentioned above is a pointer to the
believers towards adoption of piety and remembrance of Allah
(S.w.T.).
TAWAKKUL
Allah (S.w.T.) says in the Holy Qur’an: So when you recite the
Qur’an, seek refuge with Allah from the accursed shetan,
Surely he has no authority over those who believe and rely on
their Lord. (Sura an‑Nahl, 16:98-99)
One who has trust in Allah (S.w.T.), shetan will have no
control on him. shetan can influence only those who don’t
trust on Allah (S.w.T.) and all their confidence is on material
and worldly aspects of their lives. When a person doesn’t trust
Allah (S.w.T.) from the depths of his heart, then all his
pleadings for protection will be of no avail. According to the
verse quoted above, shetan would gain ascendance over him.
IKHLAS
Thus it is established that the Isti’adha of only the persons
sincere to Allah (S.w.T.) is appropriate. Since shetan has no
influence on such persons they are those who escape from his
machinations.
A woman who can come to the bazār wearing indecent dress is
shetanic from head to toe! And the man who chaperons such a
woman in public can never escape from the attention of
shetan. It goes to prove that one who doesn’t save himself
from what is forbidden (haram) can never prevent himself
from the influence of shetan.
