Question:
This questioner asks: Is it conceivable for one person to have the guardianship of the Most Merciful on one hand, and the guardianship of Satan on the other, or is the guardianship a single aspect that cannot be separated?
Answer:
No, the guardianship, as mentioned previously, is such that there is one who is a close friend of Allah with pure guardianship, and there is one who is a close friend of Satan with pure guardianship, such as the disbeliever and the one who associates partners with Allah. And there is one in whom both aspects are present: he has the guardianship of Allah in that he is a believer and a Muslim, and he has the guardianship of Satan in that he has some sins that do not reach the level of disbelief. So the disobedient believer has two guardianships: the guardianship of Allah through his faith, and the guardianship of Satan through his disobedience. This is the division that has passed through you: one who is a close friend of Allah purely, one who is a close friend of Satan purely, and one in whom both matters are combined. Yes.
