Choosing Satan for a patron instead of God
Suratun-Nisaaa’ (The Women) – Chapter – 4)
BisMillaahir-Rahmaanir-Rahiim
In the name of Allah, the
Beneficent, the Merciful
وَلَءَامُرَنَّهُمْ فَلَيُغَيِّرُنَّ خَلْقَ ٱللَّهِ وَمَن يَتَّخِذِ ٱلشَّيْطَٰنَ وَلِيًّا مِّن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ فَقَدْ خَسِرَ خُسْرَانًا مُّبِينًا (119b)
يَعِدُهُمْ وَيُمَنِّيهِمْ وَمَا يَعِدُهُمُ ٱلشَّيْطَٰنُ إِلَّا غُرُورًا (120)
أُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ مَأْوَىٰهُمْ جَهَنَّمُ وَلَا يَجِدُونَ عَنْهَا مَحِيصًا (121)

119b. and surely I will command them so that they will
change Allah’s creation. And whoso chooseth Satan for a patron instead of
Allah is verily a loser and his loss is manifest.
120. He promiseth them and stirreth up desires in them.
And Satan promiseth them only to beguile.
121. For such, their habitation will be Hell, and they
will find no refuge therefrom.

Commentary
Falayu-gayyi-runna – (they will change), this word is from the
word tagayyar, which means
‘to change and to remove from its actual position’.
Guruuran – (cheating, the person who beguiles, a
lie), guruur is a thing of deception and it is
called “to deceive”. That is to say; the thing, which is produced in the
invented form and actually that is nothing, namely; deceit or captivation.
In our previous lesson, we
reached the point that the Devil said, “Surely I will take an appointed portion
of Your bondmen, lead them astray, arouse desires into them, and surely I will
command them so that they will cut the ears of the cattle upon the name of stones and other weak
things, and leave them for wandering independently upon the name of Idols”.
Afterwards, Satan says, “Surely I will command them to change the face of Allah’s creation, and oppose the
Natural Laws and Established Orders; prescribed by Allah Almighty”.
It has been
known from this discussion that it is exact will of Satan that the Orders of
Allah Almighty be disobeyed and
the Divine Rules and Regulations should not be followed, but to do against
these Instructions. As long as it may be possible, Satan causes the mankind to
incline for doing those works, which are forbidden by Allah Almighty. Every human being is
wheedled by him due to relish of only accidental pleasure beside him/her with
joy, and the person harms oneself very severely, and after that one is
afflicted in repentance and regret. But after a few days, cleverness of the
Devil makes one again helpless and again the person accepts the deceitful
behavior of Satan to complete one’s wishes. Therefore, it has been warned that
promises of the Devil are bundle of deceptions and captivating. No any real
benefit can be gotten ever from them. The bondmen and bondwomen of Satan will
never get any advantage except regret and shame, and it is the thing, which
will appear in the form of Hell for them on the Day of Resurrection. They will
be thrown like fuel into It, and there is no abode for them save it. They will
not be able to run away anywhere from It.
