Is it permissible to curse Shaytan as Allah the Exalted cursed him?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence, father. This questioner says: Some of those who permit cursing Shaytan cite the saying of Allah the Exalted, "But Allah has cursed him," and they say, "If Allah has cursed him, then I will curse him with Allah's curse." What is the ruling on that?

Answer:
Allah's curse of him is sufficient; Allah's curse of him is enough. And if you curse him, he becomes pleased with himself and says, "I have harmed the children of Adam." Also, you are carrying the sin of Iblis upon yourself, and you regret and repent to Allah. This is not right. Yes.
