Summary

Shaykh Dr. Yasir Qadhi gives a commentary on verses 21 and 22 of Surat Ibrahim which talks about the confession of Shaytan and what steps we can take to protect ourselves from the influences and tricks of Shaytan. The gist of this verse lies in the fact that Shaytan simply whispers in the ears of mankind and people blindly obey without controlling their Nafs. But, in the Hereafter, we will come across Shaytan admitting his great deceit and treachery and will confess that he had no power over us yet we succumbed to him in the moments of weakness due to lack of Iman. "And Satan will say when the matter has been concluded, "Indeed, Allah had promised you the promise of truth. And I promised you, but I betrayed you. But I had no authority over you except that I invited you, and you responded to me. So do not blame me; but blame yourselves. I cannot be called to your aid, nor can you be called to my aid. Indeed, I deny your association of me (with Allah) before. Indeed, for the wrongdoers is a painful punishment." The numerous ways in which we can keep the effects of Shaytan at bay: Ikhlas Isti'adha Saying Bismillah Indulging in Dhikr which includes reading the Quran Surrounding oneself with the company of righteous people

0:34.3	Allah mentions in Aya 21, right before 22, Ia 21,
0:38.2	Allah mentions that those who were oppressed and weak, those who were the lowly class, will complain to the elite class on the day of judgment.
0:49.0	And they will say to them that you were the ones who misguided us. So can you protect us now from
0:57.1	the punishment of Allah? It's your fault, where in this situation? And this is the reality
1:02.1	of every society that the movers and
1:04.9	shakers are the ones who make the policy and the most of the people just follow along
1:08.8	like sheep. This is the reality. Whatever is cool, whatever is status quo, whatever is the current flavor of the month, society follows along with that.
1:17.0	And so, Allah says in the Quran that wakal al-Du al-Fahul al-Lidina s takbaru, the weak people will say to those who were the arrogant that you were the ones who did this.
