this is where you refer to people who disagree with you as followers of satan. i am asking, how do you know this? or are you making a statement about people causing conflict as being satannic in general? is it the motive that is evil or is it the person?
People that disagree with me are simply people in disagreement, remember it is my task to convey, not convince. People that try to seperate men from God(Causing conflict is a means of seperation) are those that follow satan.
Is it the motive or the person that is evil? WOW, this is a difficult question, I would hope that this means of seperation is due to ignorance, to truly follow satan with personal intent is so horrid, I do not wish to discuss it. If the person comprehends what they are trying to achieve, then it would be both the person and the motive that are evil.
The Qur'an is an excellent guide on the topic of what exactly happened between God and ibliss, here is a copy and paste from the book I have written, which references the Qur'an:
The knowledge of exactly what had happened is mentioned a few times in the Quran, the best example for this book is in SURAH 38 71 through 85:
Behold, your Lord said to the angels: I am about to create man from clay: When I have fashioned him in due proportion and breathed into him of My Spirit, you fall down in obeisance to him. So the angels prostrated themselves, all of them together: Not so Iblis: he was haughty, and became of those who reject faith. Allah said: O Iblis! What prevents you from prostrating yourself to one whom I have created with My hands? Are you haughty? Or are you one of the high and mighty ones? Iblis said: I am better then he: You created me from fire, and him You created from clay. Allah said: Then you get out from here: for you are rejected, accursed. And My curse shall be on you till the Day of Judgment. Iblis said: O my Lord! Give me respite till the Day the dead are raised. Allah said: Respite then is granted to you Till the Day of the Time Appointed. Iblis said: Then, by Your power, I will put them all in the wrong Except Your Servants amongst them, sincere and purified by Your grace. Allah said: Then it is just and fitting and I say what is just and fitting That I will certainly fill Hell with you and those that follow you, - every one.
SURAH 17 64 and 65: (God speaking)
Lead to destruction those whom you can among them, with your seductive voice; make assaults on them with your cavalry and your infantry; mutually share with them wealth and children; and make promises to them - But Satan promises them nothing but deceit. As for My servants, no authority you shall have over them: enough is your Lord for a disposer of affairs.
SURAH 7 17 and 18: (satan speaking)
Then I will assault them from before them and behind them, from their right and their left: nor will You find gratitude in most of them for your Mercies. Allah said: Get out from this, disgraced and expelled. If any of them follow you, I will fill Hell with you all.
It is important to note here that only satan can tempt mankind, as God has no interest in this sin, and therefore does not tempt man. This can be seen here in James 1 13:
Let no one say when he is tempted, I am tempted by God; for God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does He Himself tempt anyone.
And following temptation almost always leads to sin, James 1 15:
Then, when desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, brings forth death.
