Does Satan enter the prayer of istikharah to make evil attractive to the servant?

Question:
The questioner says: Honorable Shaykh, we all know that Satan is eager to drive a person to evil and keep him away from good and its paths. My question is: Does Satan enter the prayer of istikharah to make evil attractive to a person and make him averse to good? I ask for clarification. May Allah bless you.

Answer:
There is no doubt that Satan is an enemy to man, and that he does not want good for him, and he tries. But if a Muslim stands up for the prayer of istikharah and turns to Allah, then Allah keeps Satan away from him and guides him to the good among the matters in which he hesitated. He guides him to the path. He sought refuge in Allah, asked Him for guidance in His knowledge, sought His power in His ability, and asked Him to guide him to the better of the two matters. Allah is near and responsive, and Satan has no way over him in that, if Allah wills. Yes.
