This is part of the human being which perceives, learns, and is able to spiritually connect with Allah. This is the part which is addressed, held responsible, will be held accountable, and will be punished by Allah.

What is the cure? The remembrance of Allah and seeking refuge in Him is the safeguard from Satan s susurrations. The only safeguard against Satan s susurrations is to close the doors through which thoughts enter the heart. These doors are the five senses, the desire and the ties that tie the person to the worldly life. If these doors are left open, then the only way is to struggle against the enemy and to busy the heart with the continuous remembrance of Allah. 2025-05-04 7 www.ayaatacademy.ca
