THE SILENT LANGUAGE OF EVIL

            Ta-Ha: 124) They will be easily overcome by sadness, uneasiness,
            hopelessness and pessimism, and can find no solution to the prob-
            lems they live with. Yet when they realize the situation they're in,
            they cannot find the source of the anxiety that dominates their lives
            nor how to find a remedy for it. The basis of this difficulty con-
            fronting individuals is the work of satan, the basic source of all evil.
            One of the methods he uses against human beings is to debase
            themselves, because satan knows that humans can be happy only if
            they live according to their human nature. So, by making them
            adopt a moral understanding and lifestyle contrary to their nature,
            he can bar them from happiness. Again, his own insidious methods
            lead people into error and prevent them from escaping from the
            traps they have fallen into. By calling them to practice a morality
            contrary to their nature, he makes false promises of happiness.
            According to the Qur'an, satan boasts that:

                 I will lead them astray and fill them with false hopes. I will
                 command them and they will cut off cattle's ears. I will
                 command them and they will change Allah's creation."
                 Anyone who takes satan as his protector in place of Allah
                 has clearly lost everything. (Surat an-Nisa': 119)
                 All these truths that Allah reveals in the Qur'an make it clear
            that human beings can be happy only if they live according to the
            moral teachings of the Qur'an and return to the nature that Allah has
            created in them. Otherwise—as we shall detail in due course—satan
            will draw a person not only into unhappiness in this world, but into
            suffering that will last for eternity.


                 He tries to deceive people by using the name
                 of Allah
                 Satan knows that every evil thought whispered into the human
