The Eleventh Talk Hazrat Eesa converses
with Satan
It is narrated that once Satan came to Hazrat Eesa (a.s)
and said, " O Spirit of Allah! You are yourself
the Omnipotent and Omniscient God." Hazrat Eesa
(a.s.) reprimanded him for this talk and said, "
I am Allah's creation and slave on whose prayer He brings
back the dead to life!"
When Hazrat Eesa (a.s.) tried to remove doubts of Satan
in this manner, he ran away from there crying.
Satan puts such doubts and fears in the minds of the
pious persons. But they understand his tricks with the
light of piety that they are only satanic doubts. For
example; sometimes he puts a doubt in the heart of a
momin that a particular person, despite being
young and strong, has resorted to begging. Why has he
turned a beggar? Satan's purpose of creating such doubts
is to create apprehensions in the minds of believers
about the will of Allah.But if the person is a momin
aware of Allah's Greatness he will say, " Asthagfar
Allah! How can I dare to question the Will of Allah?
My Faith is that His acts are all replete with wisdom
beyond our comprehension."
