The Whispers of Shaytan to Disbelievers and Believers

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner asks: Is it true that Shaytan does not whisper to disbelievers because they have already fallen into disbelief?

Answer:
Who informs us about Shaytan? Allah (Exalted and Majestic) says:
Do you not see that We have sent the devils upon the disbelievers, inciting them to [evil] with [constant] incitement?أَلَمْ تَرَ أَنَّا أَرْسَلْنَا الشَّيَاطِينَ عَلَى الْكَافِرِينَ تَؤُزُّهُمْ أَزًّا
[Maryam 19:83]
Shaytan is always with the disbelievers, whereas with the believer, it may be with him at times and stay away from him at others. If he repels it by seeking refuge in Allah, it retreats. If he is negligent regarding it, it draws near to him.
