Abstract EN

This study is mainly concerned with the Devil in Islamic heritage and the argument of its original creation and its influence on human being behavior.

In Islamic thought, the power of evil is represented by Satan ( or Devil which is the enemy of humanity.

Devils disobeyed Allah to prostrate to Adam because they believed that they were superior to Adam and other angels.

Theologians said that Devils have the ability to deceive non-theists by whispering in their ears for doing sins.

In popular tradition, the devils instill the propensity to sin into humans at birth according to Christianity.
