The Broader Picture of the Dzatiyah Concept X
Even the Jews and the Christians (Peoples of the books) are commanded by Allah to surrender to His Will.
Say: “O People of the Book! come to common terms as between us and you: That we worship none but Allah; that we associate no partners with him; that we erect not, from among ourselves, Lords and patrons other than Allah.” If then they turn back, say ye: “Bear witness that we (at least) are Muslims (bowing to Allah’s Will).” [56]
But when Jesus perceived unbelief on their part, he said Who will be my helpers in Allah’s way? The disciples said: We are helpers (in the way) of Allah: We believe in Allah and bear witness that we are submitting ones. [57]
Once we have surrender totally to Allah’s Will, we shall experience tranquility as well as increase in piety because Satan loses his grip over us.
Those who fear Allah, when a thought of evil from Satan assaults them, bring Allah to remembrance, when lo! they see (aright)! [58]
He (Satan) said: Then, by Thy might, I surely will beguile them every one, Save Thy single-minded slaves among them.[59]
He (Satan) cannot harm them in the least, unless it be by Gods leave: in God, then, let the believers place their trust! [60]
In the light of the above, Satans will endeavour their level best to make us doubt the Divine Plan (including Predestination) being perfect and complete in every way. In this way, we will never be able to surrender ourselves to the Will of Allah wholeheartedly as we have join them in casting doubt to Allah, being The All-Wisest.
And let not [Satan through] deceptive thoughts about God delude you! [61]
[All other kinds of] secret confabulations are but of Satans doing, so that he might cause grief to those who have attained to faith. [62]
He (Satan) holds out promises to them, and fills them with vain desires: yet whatever Satan promises them is but meant to delude the mind. [63]
Satan made what they did fair-seeming to them. [64]
It is only the Satan that causes you to fear from his friends, but do not fear them, and fear Me if you are believers. [65]
Then I will certainly come to them from before them and from behind them, and from their right-hand side and from their left-hand side; and Thou shalt not find most of them thankful. [66]
And most certainly I will lead them astray and excite in them vain desires. [67]
Surely the squanderers are the fellows of the Satans and the Satan is ever ungrateful to his Lord. [68]
The most dangerous of all Satans is the one who is our (Satanic) twin. He is paired to us when we were born. His job is to lead us astray by whatsoever means. Being our (Satanic) twin since our birth, he knows all our secrets, weaknesses, inhibition, fantasies, ambition, obsession, addictions and others which he would exploit to the maximum. He is the one who whispers to our ears, putting unsavoury thoughts in our mind, open the floodgate (if we allowed him) of our inhibition, made us act in a certain way, urging us into addictions and many more. His job ends when we expire. He is called “Qarin”.
And We have destined for them intimate companions, who made alluring to them what was before them and behind them[69].
Therefore let not this world’s life deceive you, nor let the arch deceiver deceive you in respect of Allah.[70]
Satan made their deeds fair-seeming to them, so he is their guardian today.[71]
Our Prophet Muhammad [pbuh] had mentioned this to his wife, Aishah, who was at that point of time consumed with jealousy. Let see what transpired between them:
Prophet: “Has Satan gets to you?”
Aisyah: “Oh, is Satan with me?”
Prophet: “Yes!”
Aisyah: “Are all mankind having Satan with them!”
Prophet: “Yes!”
Aisyah: “You too!”
Prophet: “Yes, but God protects me from him!” [72]
Once we started to doubt the perfection of the Divine Plan (including Predestination) created by Allah, The All-Wisest, we lose the tranquility prevailing over us. In this way, we brought about this situation on ourselves. Such being the case, Allah will not help us since we do not help ourselves and neither is Allah cruelled to us.
Surely Allah does not change the condition of a people until they change their own condition.[73]
And whatever affliction befalls you, it is on account of what your hands have wrought, and (yet) He pardons most (of your faults).[74]
Whatever benefit comes to you (O man!), it is from Allah, and whatever misfortune befalls you, it is from yourself.[75]
It was not Allah Who should do them injustice, but they were unjust to themselves. [76]
As for being cruel, it is better to blame ourselves rather than blaming Allah. As such, be very careful.[77]
By doubting He is All-Wisest, we have disrespected Him. In this way we are in cohort with Satans.
And they do not assign to Allah the attributes due to Him. [78]
And they have not honored Allah with the honor that is due to Him. [79]
Glory be to Allah (for freedom) from what they describe. [80]
And among men there is he who disputes about Allah without knowledge and follows every rebellious Satan. [81]
If His Mercy does not precede His Anger, we would all have been annihilated.
Most surely Allah is Compassionate, Merciful to men.[82]
His Mercy precedes His Anger.[83]
And had not a word gone forth from your Lord till an appointed term, certainly judgment would have been given between them. [84]
And had not a word gone forth from your Lord, the matter would surely have been decided between them. [85]
So do not take our disparaging doubt lightly as to Allah this is a very serious matter. However, to Satan this will do since we, the Believers, will never worship them.
You deemed it an easy matter while with Allah it was grievous.[86]
Satans have given up hope forever of being worship by the Believers in their own countries but in the small little things we did which we consider minor but these are in accord with them, this will do for them. [87]
Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) had said that one wrong word can place us in Hell.
There can be occasion when a single word uttered can place us in Hell the distance of which is like the East and the West. [88]

Watch leather strap and steel gray PVD polished sandblasted to create a pin buckle.
The Fossil watches are usually designed with the understanding that the one who wears them will be quite comfortable and they
will have a good time with these wristwatches. The current view of personal electronics as consumable is an increasingly untenable notion considering the finite resources of the planet.
