HIS SCHEMING IS ALWAYS POWERLESS
            AGAINST THOSE WHO BELIEVE
            When the affair is decided satan will say, 'Allah made you a
            promise, a promise of truth, and I made you a promise but broke
            my promise. I had no authority over you, except that I called you
            and you responded to me. Do not, therefore, blame me but blame
            yourselves. I cannot come to your aid nor you to mine. I reject the
            way you associated me with Allah before.' The wrongdoers will
            have a painful punishment. (Qur'an, 14:22)
            Diabolis was correct in his assessment of them and they followed
            him, except for a group of the believers. He had no authority over
            them except to enable Us to know those who believe in the
            hereafter from those who are in doubt about it. Your Lord is the
            Preserver of all things. (Qur'an, 34:20-21)
            Those who believe fight in the Way of Allah. Those who do not
            believe fight in the way of false gods. So fight the friends of satan!
            Satan's scheming is always feeble. (Qur'an, 4:76)

            HE CAN ONLY DECEIVE THOSE
            WHO TAKE HIM AS THEIR FRIEND
            It was only satan frightening you through his friends. But do not
            fear them— fear Me if you are believers. (Qur'an, 3:175)


            HE DESCENDS ON THOSE WHO DENY
            Shall I tell you upon whom the satans descend? They descend on
            every evil liar. They give them a hearing and most of them are
            liars. (Qur'an, 26:221-223)

            EVERYONE, SAVE THE BELIEVERS,
            FOLLOWS HIM
            Diabolis was correct in his assessment of them and they followed
            him, except for a group of the believers. (Qur'an, 34:20)
