Shaytaan
The shaytaan (satan) can be human or jinn...
The Noble Qur'an - Al-An'aam 6:112
And so We have appointed for every Prophet enemies
- Shayâtin (devils) among mankind and jinns, inspiring one another with adorned
speech as a delusion (or by way of deception). If your Lord had so willed, they
would not have done it, so leave them alone with their fabrications.
Know your enemy...
The Noble Qur'an - Faatir 35:6
Surely, Shaitân (Satan) is an enemy to you,
so take (treat) him as an enemy. He only invites his Hizb (followers)
that they may become the dwellers of the blazing Fire.
The Noble Qur'an - Az-Zukhruf 43:62
And let not Shaitân (Satan) hinder you (from the
right religion, i.e. Islâmic Monotheism), Verily, he (Satan) to you is a plain
enemy.
Shaitaan tells you to fear people instead of Allah,
swt...
The Noble Qur'an - Az-Zukhruf 43:62
It is only Shaitân (Satan) that suggests to you
the fear of his Auliyâ'
[supporters and friends (polytheists, disbelievers in the Oneness of Allâh and
in His Messenger, Muhammad
)],
so fear them not, but fear Me, if you are (true) believers.
