SHAYTAN WILL TRICK YOU INTO NOT WATCHING THIS VIDEO!

Summary

The video script discusses the various tactics that the 'Shan', a term referring to Satan or evil temptations, employs to lead individuals astray. These tactics include attempts to compromise faith, desensitize individuals to sins, distract with permissible activities, and incite religious extremism. The script emphasizes the importance of recognizing these strategies to maintain a strong connection with Allah and to focus on good deeds rather than comparing oneself to others. It also highlights the need for humility and avoiding self-righteousness, as well as the potential for the 'Shan' to use minor good deeds to distract from major ones, or to create division and discouragement among believers.

Takeaways

• 📜 **Compromise with Allah**: The shaytan (Shan) first tries to lead you into shirk (associating partners with Allah), which is the ultimate sin.
• 🗣️ **Whispering to Others**: If unsuccessful, the shaytan whispers to others to influence and delude you, using social media and other means to promote false beliefs.
• 👪 **Family Influence**: The shaytan may use non-Muslim family members to tempt you into participating in their religious acts, under the guise of goodwill.
• 🍻 **Major Sins**: If polytheism doesn't work, the shaytan tries to convince you to commit major sins like alcohol consumption, adultery, murder, and theft, desensitizing you to sin.
• 🤥 **Justifying Minor Sins**: The shaytan makes you feel that minor sins are acceptable and can be easily forgiven, leading to a lack of remorse and potential progression to major sins.
• 🎮 **Distractions**: The shaytan can keep you busy with permissible activities to the point of obsession, thus distracting you from performing good deeds.
• 🕌 **Minor Good Deeds Over Major Ones**: The shaytan may lead you to focus on minor good deeds at the expense of major ones, such as missing important prayers due to fatigue from lesser activities.
• 🙏 **Innovating in Religion**: The shaytan tempts you to create your own way of worship, deviating from the teachings of the Prophet and the Quran.
• 🔥 **Religious Extremism**: If other tactics fail, the shaytan may lead you towards religious extremism, focusing on the faults of others and neglecting self-improvement.
• 🗣️ **Turning People Against You**: As a final trick, the shaytan may use others to discourage you, causing you to feel isolated and questioning your faith.

😈 Tricks of the Shaytan to Mislead Believers

This paragraph discusses the various tactics that the Shaytan (Shan) uses to lead people astray. The first tactic is to encourage the creation of partners with Allah, which is considered the ultimate sin (shirk). If this fails, the Shaytan whispers to people to engage in minor sins and uses social media to promote such behavior. The Shaytan also tries to get people to participate in the religious acts of non-Muslim family members out of goodness, which can lead to compromising one's faith. Furthermore, if the person is not swayed by polytheism, the Shaytan tempts them with major sins such as alcohol, fornication, murder, and theft, aiming to desensitize them to sin. The Shaytan also uses lies and justifications to make people feel better about their sins, comparing themselves to others who are worse off. The paragraph ends with a reminder to focus on good deeds and to compete with others in righteousness, rather than in sin.

😇 Overcoming the Shaytan's Deceptions

The second paragraph outlines the remaining tactics of the Shaytan and how believers can counteract them. If the Shaytan cannot tempt individuals into major sins, he will attempt to lead them into minor sins to desensitize them. The Shaytan also distracts people with permissible activities, causing them to neglect their obligatory good deeds. He may also lead individuals to focus on minor good deeds at the expense of major ones, such as staying up all night on social media instead of performing the Fajr prayer. The Shaytan can also lead people to innovate in their religion, justifying personal worship methods that deviate from the teachings of the Prophet and the Quran. If these tactics fail, the Shaytan may push individuals towards religious extremism, focusing on the sins of others and developing a hardened heart. Lastly, the Shaytan tries to turn people against the believer, using social media and the opinions of others to discourage them from their religious practice. The paragraph concludes with a warning to be aware of the Shaytan's tricks and to remain steadfast in one's faith.

Keywords

💡Shan

In the context of the video, 'Shan' refers to the concept of the devil or Satan in Islamic belief, which is considered to be a force that tempts humans away from the righteous path and towards sin and disbelief. The video discusses various tactics that the 'Shan' uses to deceive and lead people astray, such as whispering into the hearts of individuals to make them compromise their faith.

💡Polytheism (Shirk)

Polytheism, or 'Shirk' in Islamic terms, is the act of associating partners with Allah, which is considered the ultimate sin in Islam. The video mentions that the 'Shan' tries to convince individuals to engage in this act, which is a severe compromise of one's faith and a direct attack on their belief in the monotheistic nature of Allah.

💡Major Sins

The video outlines that 'major sins' are serious transgressions that the 'Shan' attempts to lead individuals into committing, such as alcohol consumption, fornication (Zena), murder, and sorcery. These sins are depicted as a pathway to desensitization, making it easier for a person to commit further transgressions and distancing them from Allah's forgiveness.

💡Minor Sins

'Minor sins' are less severe transgressions that, while still not in line with Islamic teachings, are not considered as grave as major sins. The video suggests that the 'Shan' may desensitize individuals to minor sins, leading them to feel no guilt and eventually making them more susceptible to major sins.

💡Astrology and Superstition

The video discusses how the 'Shan' may lure individuals into astrology, star signs, and zodiac signs, which are considered forms of superstition in Islam. This is depicted as a way for the 'Shan' to distract individuals from their faith and to lead them towards practices that are not sanctioned by Islamic teachings.

💡Social Media

The video touches upon the role of social media as a tool that the 'Shan' can use to create trends and distractions, such as those related to astrology and superstition. It is suggested that social media can be a platform for the propagation of ideas that can lead individuals away from their faith.

💡Religious Acts

The video mentions that the 'Shan' may tempt individuals to participate in the religious acts of others out of a sense of goodness or familial obligation, even if those acts are not in line with their own faith. This can lead to a compromise of one's religious beliefs and practices.

💡Desensitization

Desensitization is the process by which individuals become less sensitive or responsive to stimuli, in this case, to sins. The video explains that the 'Shan' works to desensitize individuals to both minor and major sins, making it easier for them to commit these acts without feeling guilt or remorse.

💡Good Deeds

The video contrasts the focus on good deeds with the 'Shan's' tactics. It emphasizes that true competition among believers should be in performing good deeds rather than in comparing oneself to others who are less righteous. Good deeds are seen as a way to draw closer to Allah and to maintain a strong faith.

💡Religious Extremism

The video warns against religious extremism, where individuals become overly zealous in their religious practices to the point of excluding or condemning others. The 'Shan' may exploit this by encouraging individuals to focus on the perceived sins of others rather than their own spiritual growth and connection with Allah.

💡Innovation in Religion (Bid'ah)

The video discusses 'Bid'ah', or innovation in religion, as a tactic used by the 'Shan' to lead individuals away from the established practices of Islam. This includes creating personal worship methods that deviate from the teachings of the Prophet Muhammad and the Quran, which can lead to a distorted understanding of one's faith.

Transcripts

he mentions a summary of eight different

tricks that the Shan attacks us with the

first thing the Shan tries to attack you

with to get you to do is the ultimate

one it's called sh to make partners with

Allah now if you knows that you're too

strong for that the Shan starts to

whisper to other friends to come around

you to delude you and give you some

ideas if you can't get major sh will get

you into minorik for example makes you

look at astrology and star signs and

zodiac signs and reading your palm and

then the shaan comes says hey this is

cool let's use social media to make a

trend on zodiac signs and star signs and

remember that he's trying to step by

step get you there into sh sometimes you

may have a family member who is not

Muslim and the Shan says to you hey just

out of goodness to them why don't you go

and share some of their religious acts

only out of goodness you don't really

believe in it just go and do it for

their sake the Shan will always work

around you in any way for you to

compromise your faith and justify some

way of making partners with Allah the

second one he does if he can't win you

over with shik with polytheism he will

try to win you over by convincing you to

do major sins such as alcohol and Zena

murder sorcery it's in the Quran

stealing and theft and so on why major

sins because major sins at least can get

you a punishment and if he can convince

you to do one major sin and get you to

do the next major sin because once you

do the first one you become desensitized

next one's going to be easier the Shan's

working step by step remember that if

you start start off with major sins it's

working towards shik it will never stop

so he'll start to try to justify major

sins to you and he'll come up to you and

say hey man look God tells you in the

Quran that he forgives he so go and do

major sin afterwards ask Allah to

forgive you man go to and do a couple

ofas you'll be all right pray a few

prayers your major sin is gone will try

to trick you that way listen to this

some people this is how the Shan work

with them you ready you come to a person

who lies you try to advise your brother

or someone don't lie man say hey you're

lie at least I admit it others people

don't even admit it so I'm good I tell

the truth but you're still lying says

good on you man at least you do it you

don't hide it he makes you look like if

you say that you're liying if you

continue to lie and as if you're door

didn't open like as if you're not a

hypocrite anymore at least he's not a

hypocrite these are lies he's lying to

you hey at least I'm not like other

people who steal the person who steal

says yeah I steal but at least I admit

it and I'm I'm like other people who

deal in drugs you go the person deals in

drugs says yeah I deal in drugs but at

least I don't deal in heavy drugs like

other people you got the other guy deals

in heavy drugs says yeah I do in heavy

drugs I don't sell it to children like

others yeah I only sell it mate because

they want it but I don't take it I'll

just sell it it's up to them so now you

got a human Shan that's exactly what

Shan does come the other guy who takes

it and cells and says yeah well at least

I don't go murdering people come to the

murderer and says yeah I murder people

at least I don't murder children like

others you know where I'm going with

this right everybody looks at someone

else who's worse than them I mean you

can keep going on and on guys but then

you have other people who beat the shaan

and they say Subhan Allah I know I'm

praying my five daily prayers

alhamdulillah and I don't do drugs and I

don't do any of the major sin

there are others mallah who pray their

sunas I wish I can do the sunah you go

to the guy who does all the sunas well

Al I'm doing the but you know there are

other peopleall they donate so much I

wish I can do that you go to the guy who

donates say yeah alhamdulillah I donate

but man there are others mallah the

amount of help that they give to other

people and how they are to their mom and

dad and their honestly that's what we

should be Allah tells

us this is what people who compete

should be competing in not the other way

not looking at who's worse than you look

at who's better than you in good deeds

the only time you look at someone who's

worse off than you is when it comes to

Blessings like money Finance Health

family look at those who are less

fortunate than you because that will

help you remember your own blessings and

you become a little bit better and your

mental state will be better and you'll

be happier than to look at someone who's

got more than you because then you'll

never live happily you'll always be in

stress you always be competing number

three if the Shan cannot get you in

major sins he gets you in minor sins and

comes up to you and says hey man you're

not doing any major sins the Quran says

if you pray all your minor sins go away

just keep doing that just keep saying

yeah it's true

does forgive you but the Shan knows that

he's not working on that you see the

Shan is trying to desensitize you to

minor sins so that you no longer feel

any guilt whatsoever and then when

that's ready gets you to the major sins

so it's a footstep if he can't get you

with minor sins the next step is check

this out he busies you makes you busy so

that you take up your time in things

that are permissible Allah says this is

Hal right permissible things he makes

you busy with permissible things and

your hobbies until you overspend your

time with them and you miss out on doing

good Good Deeds that would benefit you

better some people like for example

there's nothing wrong with playing games

but some people they get obsessed with

their games they spend their entire

nights on them they spend all their time

when they could have done some other

good deeds and it becomes an addiction

some people they get into their Hobbies

or they go into their whatever

recreational activities but they go

overboard with it so that their entire

time becomes that so the Shan makes you

so busy with that that you forget some

people they come to pray to the Masid

you pray your and then you get busy

talking talking talking talking talking

you haven't done your prayer thean says

yeah keep talking man talk about what's

happening overseas and talk about how

the umah is falling and how all the

people are bad and whatever alhamd we're

on a good path out comes you missed your

sunah pray the Shan gets you busy with

these things if that doesn't work the

Shan gets you with the fifth one he gets

you busy with minor Good Deeds at the

expense of major Good Deeds so for

example thean will tell you hey man see

all that Tik Tok stuff everybody's

talking

about which is beautiful but what thean

wants to do says do and stay up in the

entire night and close to your f the

Shan comes in and says man you're tired

you sleep sleep 5 minutes before so you

go in and because you're so tired what

happens you miss the entire F and the

sun rises the Shan can make you busy

with minor Deeds so that you don't do

the major Deeds so always prioritize if

you're a person who's going to sleep in

no don't do your do your pray if he

can't get you with that he gets you with

something called innovating in your

religion thean will try to justify your

own way of worshiping God I've met a lot

of these types of people they come up

and they say yeah I know this is the

better way and I know this is the sunah

of the Prophet wasam yeah I know that

this is what the Quran says but hey I

worship God the way that I feel close to

him man the way I want to worship him so

they go and make up their own type of

worship there is no better worship and

closest to Allah than the way Allah told

us and the way the prophet sallallahu

alaihi wasallam taught us and the way

the and Scholars have told us not your

own way number seven if he can't get you

with all that ah he gets you with

religious extremism so you're so

religious he can't get you in any of

that stuff so he comes up to you and

goes look at all those other religious

people look at them doing Haram that

one's doing Haram that one's doing Haram

that one's doing Haram look this guy on

social media I bet you he's just doing

it for views and likes y cancel him out

go and talk about things about make on

this person say this person is a mush

this person is an innovator in the name

of commanding good and pring evil but

what he's doing is he's going really out

there and busying his or her entire time

watching other people and belittling

other people until they grow a hardened

heart and start hating everyone around

them man I've seen a lot of these types

of people so the Shan gets you become

extreme and focused on accusing other

religious people and that's what Allah

says in the

Quan never praise yourselves in piety it

is Allah who knows who's truly more

Pious so you got to be very careful with

these things brother and sisters number

eight if you can't get you with that the

final trick of the Shan is he turns

people against you to make you give up

on your practice and work go and Whisper

to your cousins to your friends to

people around you who'll make you read

comments on social media for a good post

that you put up or a nice video that you

shared that reminds people that will

affect you the Shan will say look what

they're saying look at that person look

at that person he'll whisper to people

around you to come and and put you off

your practice brothers and sisters this

is one of the big tricks of thean in

order to use people against you so that

you can give up and hate the day that

you even became religious so always be

aware of his tricks inshallah
