THE ORDERS GIVEN BY
SATAN TO DISTANCE
PEOPLE FROM
THE QUR'AN
n previous sections of this book we stated that the true
leader of people who resist religion is Satan. In the follow-
I I ing sections we will speak of the orders given by Satan to
the deniers and how these orders distance them from the Qur'an.
However, first it is necessary to emphasize that Satan only influences
his own followers.
Satan has no power whatsoever over people who scrupulously di-
rect themselves towards Allah with all their hearts, who conform to
His instructions and advice, who sincerely engage in good deeds to
earn the pleasure of Allah and who are aware that they will be re-
warded in the hereafter for everything they do. Satan has influence
upon those people that reject Allah. All Satan's efforts to divert them
from the true path, his whispered flatteries and his deceptive words
have no effect on the faithful. In the verses of the Qur'an, Allah tells us:
He (Satan) has no authority over those who believe and put
their trust in their Lord. He only has authority over those who
take him as a friend and associate others with Allah. (Surat an-
Nahl: 99-100)
