Overcome Your Devil

afrarzk

احبك ىارب
السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته

The Messenger of Allah (sal Allahu alaihi wa sallam) said: “The believer can seize the forelock of his devil as one of you seizes the forelock of his camel whilst traveling.” [Ahmad]

After quoting this hadith, Ibn Katheer said: “What is meant by seizing his forelock is defeating him and overwhelming him, as one does with a camel when it runs away, then you seize it and overpower it.”

Whoever is strong in his faith (Eeman) can defeat his Shaytaan and humiliate him. Strength of Eeman comes from humbling oneself before Allah (subhana wa ta’ala).

Whoever sacrifices his will and desires before the Will of Allah (subhana wa ta’ala) and enforces on himself the commands of Allah (subhana wa ta’ala), is empowered and enriched by Him (subhana wa ta’ala) more than he could ever be empowered or enriched by the efforts of mankind.

When we find ourselves around evil or being lured by it, Satan is engaged in his work and our task is to fend off his plans. Allah says in the Quran: “And if an evil whisper from Shaitan (Satan) tries to turn you away (O Muhammad) (from doing good), then seek refuge in Allah. Verily, He is the All Hearer, the All Knower” (Quran, Fussilat: 36).
May Allah keep us on a good path.
