The Companion from the Angels and the Shayatins
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner, Umm Asma, says: Honorable Shaykh, every human being has a companion, a companion from the angels and a companion from the shayatin. Is this correct?
Answer:
Yes. The angel commands him to obey, to be mindful of Allah (Mighty and Majestic), and to fear Allah (Mighty and Majestic). And the companion from the jinn, meaning from the shayatin, commands him to do what is wrong, to commit open sins, and to do what does not please Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He). So whichever of them prevails over this person, he will be among the followers of that one. Either he will be among the followers of the angel and be saved, or he will be among the followers of the shaytan and be destroyed. Yes.
