How Does Satan Influence Humans?
From Sarah Al Nas the last sura of the Qur’an we know that a Satan or devil can communicate with our inner self to insinuate. Human satan does it from outside but a jinn satan has some other ways. How he does it is not known to us. However this insinuation is suggestive, man can accept or reject it. Iblis was a satan from jinns. It is not iblis who is present everywhere.
We only about ghaib only what Allah has revealed. We have no means to know and say anything more than that. Allah has created conscious beings, among whom humans and the jinn are put through a test i.e. worldly life. Since it is a test, people have the power to make conscious choices – chose to do wrong or right. When some or many of us chose to do wrong that creates evil. Influencers of all kinds, and decievers act on human mind to pull or push in direction of their choice. It is up to every individual to commit to truth, understand it, and then make good choices for action.
