when a good man walks in front of bad people, the bad people will show some signs to each other and mock the good man with each other. like old school-language said, ‘show off to be so alim.’
yet the fact is, they(the bad people) unable to be like the good man. they feel insulted being in front of the good man, so that they show the bad thing about the good man ACCORDING to their own evaluation so that the good man will NEVER be better them.
they should instead admit that theyre not as good as the man and muhasabah and insaf. but they did the otherwise.
not only they sell the hidayah and buy the digression, but they also want and aim to make other people follow their deviant footsteps. its not fun to be deviant alone. so they make other people follow them as well. this is a habit/tabiat of ahli maksiat/mungkar.
And Satan will say when the matter has been concluded, “Indeed, Allah had promised you the promise of truth. And I promised you, but I betrayed you. But I had no authority over you except that I invited you, and you responded to me. So do not blame me; but blame yourselves. I cannot be called to your aid, nor can you be called to my aid. Indeed, I deny your association of me [with Allah ] before. Indeed, for the wrongdoers is a painful punishment.”
syaitan makes people go deviant and after that he(syaitan) will raise his hands(not being responsible upon it).
on the day of kiamat, syaitan will say one thing and ALL people who follow his words in the dunya will hear this words and it stated in the al quran so that the mukmin abstain themselves from keep listening to syaitan.
‘me only invite you to do it. i whispered to you. dont blame me, dont get angry at me. who asked you to follow me? curse your own self. dont curse me. i cant help you and you cant help me.’
these words will be heard by the people who follow the whispers of syaitan in the dunya.
