God, Glory be to Him, has tested the children of Adam by giving them the commanding self and the self reprimanding, and He has also honored them with the reassuring soul, and this is one soul, it may be blameworthy, it may be commanding, and it may be reassuring. And the Messenger of God, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, said in this regard: “The devil has a curse on the son of Adam, and the king has a curse. As for the word of Satan, it is repeated with evil and a denial of truth, and as for the word of the king, it is repeated with goodness and confirmation of the truth. So whoever finds that, let him know that it is from God and praise God, and whoever finds the other Let him seek refuge with Allah from the accursed Satan.” Then he recited: {Satan promises you poverty and orders you to immorality.}
