Pt 8: Hijab's - The Satanic Whisper.

 Hijabs - The Satanic Whisper.

Satan is the traditional enemy of every human being. This enmity has been explained by Allahﷻ in the Qur'an as His words:

Meaning: "Have I (Allahﷻ) not commanded you, O children of Adam (humans), that you do not worship (enslave yourself) to the devil, indeed the devil is a clear enemy for you".

Satan becomes a hijab for the human heart because he closes the human heart by crowding it and causing various crossings of the heart and mind so that it is veiled from witnessing the facts of the truth. If the devil does not surround the hearts of people then people will be able to witness the majesty of God behind this real world. The Prophet s.a.w revealed this in his words:

فَلَّمَاْ نَزَلْتُ إِلَى السَمَاْءِ الدُنْيَاْ نَظَرْتُ أَسْفَلَ مِنِّيْ فَإِذَاْ أَنَاْ بِرَهْجٍ وَدُخَاْنٍ وَأَصْوَاْتٍ فَقُلْتُ مَاْ هَذَاْ

 يَاْ جِبْرِيْلُ قَاْلَ هَذِهِ الْشَيَاْطِيْنُ   يَحُوْمُوْنَ  عَلَى أَعْيُنِ بَنِيْ آدَمَ اَنْ لَاْ يَتَفَكَّرُوْا فِيْ مَلَكُوْتِ

 الْسَمَاْوَاْتِ وَالْأَرْضِ وَلَوْ لَاْ ذَلِكَ لَرَأَوْا الْعَجَاْئِبَ

Meaning: When I go down to the sky of the world, then I look below me suddenly I am in an atmosphere of dust, smoke, and voices. I asked, "What is this, Jibril?". Jibril replied, "these are the demons that crowd the vision of people so that they do not contemplate the power of Allahﷻ in the heavens and the earth. If it weren't for all that, they would surely see a miracle".

Satan also disturbs people by causing various misgivings and doubts. This doubt that comes to the human heart will eventually affect it until it becomes a part of what is held in his heart. The existence of doubt in the human heart will disturb the clarity of the heart and further weaken his confidence in the facts of the truth that he has known so far.
