Q1: What are the ways by which Satan enters the human being?
A1: The ways by which Satan enters the human being are numerous: among them is that he comes to him from the direction of the desire of his private parts, inciting him to unlawful sexual intercourse, and suggesting to him seclusion with non-mahram women, looking at them, mixing with them, listening to their singing, and the like. He continues to tempt him until he falls into the great sin. Among them is that he comes to him from the direction of the desire of his stomach, inciting him to eat what is forbidden, drink intoxicants, and take narcotics... and the like. Among them is that he comes to him from the direction of the instinct of love for possession, and the inclination toward wealth and riches, inciting him to expand in the means of earning, whether lawful or forbidden, so that he does not care about consuming the wealth of people by false means; through usury or interest, theft, usurpation, embezzlement, and deception
and the like. Among them is that he comes to him from the direction of the instinct of love for dominance, arrogance, and self-importance; so he becomes arrogant, tyrannical toward people, belittles them, and mocks them... and other numerous ways. Refer to the book (Tala'is Iblis) by: Abu al-Faraj Ibn al-Jawzi . And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.
