Among the famous tricks of Satan and his
constituents is that they don't come
forward to us, submitters, in a direct
opposition. They scheme while mingling with
us on the straight path. They would not
directly ask us to follow them instead of
God. What they would do instead is leave us
to celebrate our submission, praise
God, believe in His messengers, and
study His proofs, while confusing the
teachings for us or leading us
to SELECTIVELY uphold God's laws.
Under their influence, we end up following
some commands but ignoring, rejecting, or
abusing others. Fully deceived, and
triggered by their endless lists of idols
and wicked logic and justifications, we
transgress some of God's limits, and
gradually lose our guided judgment. Once we
start adopting their style of reasoning over
God's, they rejoice and strive to inflate
our egos for us to take our Submission for
granted and never reevaluate our stands.
They make us imagine that we are real
submitters on the right path, while we are
starting to PARTIALLY live a devilish
illusion.
Examine Yourself
[18:103] Say,
"Shall I tell you who the worst losers are?
[18:104] "They
are the ones whose works in this life are
totally astray, but they
think that they are
doing good."
[35:8] Note the one
whose evil work is adorned
in his eyes, until he
thinks that it is righteous.
GOD thus sends astray whoever wills (to go
astray), and He guides whoever wills (to be
guided). Therefore, do not grieve over them.
GOD is fully aware of everything they do.
[3:23] Have you noted
those who
were given part of the scripture,
and how
they are invited to uphold
this scripture of GOD, and apply
it to their own lives, then
some of them turn away in aversion?
[2:85] ...Do
you believe in part of the scripture and
disbelieve in part? What
should be the retribution for those among you
who do this,
except humiliation in this life, and a
far worse retribution on the Day of
Resurrection? GOD is never unaware of anything
you do.
[15:90] We will deal
with the
dividers.
[15:91]
They accept the
Quran only partially.
[15:92]
By your Lord, we will question them all,
[15:93]
about
everything they have done.
As indicated in 18:103-104 and 35:8,
the danger of sinking into this illusion
lies in the fact that we don't perceive it.
It is a fake, ugly world adorned in our eyes
by the schemes of the devils, while God is
leading us on to sink deeper into our loss -
an unchangeable divine system as
a consequence of our choice and the
continued failure to recognize our mistake
and repent (4:120, 17:64, 24:39). We walk on
earth in a make-belief state acting as
victorious, righteous, happy submitters in
parts of the day while we are egoistic
transgressors without perceiving in other
parts! Our souls are progressively eaten up
deep inside, weakening our outside garments
of righteousness that we all claim to have.
We turn into UNRIGHTEOUS, FAKE
ENTITIES promoting BASELESS, SATANIC
PRINCIPLES made up by our egos and
/or other idols. A tragic loss! the
Following portrays our reality when we
become fake believers partially tricked by
the illusion of Satan and failing to repent
:
Believers Or
Hypocrites?
[4:60] Have
you noted those
who
claim that they believe in
what was revealed to you, and in
what was revealed before you,
then uphold
the unjust laws of their idols?
They were commanded to reject such
laws. Indeed, it
is the devil's wish to lead them far
astray.
A Chip On Their
Shoulders
[63:4]
When you see them, you may be
impressed by their looks.
And when they speak, you may
listen to their eloquence.
They are like standing
logs. They think that every call
is intended against them.
These are the real enemies;
beware of them. GOD condemns
them; they have deviated.
[57:14]
They will
call upon them, "Were we not with you?"
They will answer, "Yes,
but you cheated your souls, hesitated,
doubted, and became misled by wishful
thinking, until GOD's judgment came.
You were diverted from GOD by illusions.
[13:33] ...
Indeed, the schemes of those who disbelieve
have been adorned in
their eyes. They are
thus diverted from the right path.
Whomever GOD sends astray can never find a
guiding teacher.
[2:9] In
trying to deceive GOD and those who believe,
they only deceive themselves without
perceiving.
[2:10] In their minds
there is a disease.
Consequently, GOD
augments their disease.
They have incurred a painful retribution for
their lying.
[2:12] In
fact, they are evildoers, but they do not
perceive.
The Winners and the Losers
[35:39] He is the One
who made you inheritors of the earth.
Subsequently, whoever chooses to disbelieve
does so to his own detriment.
The disbelief of the disbelievers only
augments their Lord's abhorrence towards
them. The disbelief of the
disbelievers plunges them deeper into loss.
[9:9]
They
traded away GOD's
revelations for a cheap price.
Consequently, they repulsed the
people from His path. Miserable indeed is
what they did!
[22:12]
He idolizes beside GOD what
possesses no power to harm him or
benefit him; such is the
real straying.
[22:13] He
idolizes what is more apt to harm him than
benefit him. What a miserable lord! What a
miserable companion!
[2:81] Indeed,
those who earn sins and become
surrounded by their evil work will be the
dwellers of Hell; they abide in it forever.
As submitters struggling to hold fast to the
rope of God, we should be armed with what
will enable us to recognize and disown these
fake entities as well as their fake values
they introduce to us. The ONLY guard a
truthful submitter and believer would use is
the proven word of the True Lord and
Master. His ultimate truth in His Perfect
Arabic Quran is the only judge that will
save us from turning into one of these
fake entities and protect us from their
promoted conjecture.
[10:32] Such is GOD,
your rightful Lord.
What is there after the truth,
except falsehood? How could you
disregard all this?
[10:36] Most
of them follow nothing but conjecture,
and conjecture is no substitute
for the truth. GOD is fully
aware of everything they do.
[14:27]
GOD strengthens those who believe with the
proven word, in this life and in the
Hereafter. And GOD sends the transgressors
astray. Everything is in
accordance with God's will.
[22:62]
It is a fact that GOD is the Truth,
while the setting up of any
idols beside Him constitutes a falsehood,
and that GOD is the Most High, the Supreme.
[10:82]
GOD establishes the truth with
His words,
despite the criminals.
[17:105]
Truthfully, we sent it down, and with the
truth it came down. We did not
send you except as a bearer of good news, as
well as a warner.
[3:62]
Absolutely, this is the narration of the
truth. Absolutely,
there is no god except GOD. Absolutely, GOD
is the Almighty, Most Wise.
Peaceful Friday, salaam, and God bless.
