The Sincerity Of True Believers
guide them to the wrong path, without the Will of Allah.
When Satan tries to "place vain desires in their hearts," the
Muslims’ belief that the Qur’an is undoubtedly a true
blessing from Allah is strengthened. This truth is revealed in
a verse as follows:
We did not send any Messenger or any Prophet before
you without Satan insinuating something into his
recitation while he was reciting. But Allah revokes
whatever Satan insinuates and then Allah confirms His
Signs—Allah is All-Knowing, All-Wise—so that He can
make what Satan insinuates a trial for those with
sickness in their hearts and for those whose hearts are
hard—the wrongdoers are entrenched in hostility—and
so that those who have been given knowledge will know
it is the truth from their Lord and believe in it and their
hearts will be humbled to Him. Allah guides those who
believe to a straight path. (Surat al-Hajj: 52-54)
