"*** and were afflicted by the slavery of the self and Satan"
They became slaves to their own souls and to Satan.[Al-Baqarah 2:61] They fled from the slavery that is freedom for them, which is the servitude of Allah, to the slavery of Satan, which is humiliation and loss in this world and the Hereafter.
"May you not be pleased with what they chose for their own souls *** for they have accepted humiliation and deprivation"
