Are you gaal for having doubts and questions?

[ina-cilmi]

The more you say why does this happen and so on the more your going to be stuck in this loop of misery and doubts, the only solution is to shut them down. We know Allah exists as there's so many evidence to suggest this. So if we know Allah exists we should surely put our trust in him. Since he literally created you and is keeping an eye on you e.g you being alive and the universe being alive etc. It wouldn't make sense having doubt in your faith when we know Allah exists and is everywhere with us through his wisdom. Imagine being a murtad and you know Allah exists, does that make sense? what will happen when you die? you think Allah will.be pleased? absolutely not but rather you will relieve a welcome to an eternal misery with no hope of redemption. But to answer your question. Allah created shaytan for the same reason why Allah created us. Remember the verse, “And I did not create the jinnkind and the mankind except to worship me.” So this tells us that Allah created Shaytan who is from the jinnkind so that Shaytan can worship Him. But since Shaytan also had free will, he used that to disobey Allah. Shaytan than went on to further threaten to get humanity to disobey Allah. Humans have free will and WILLINGLY choose to follow shaytan just like the waswas your getting, you are willingly allowing it to get to you when you can just simply seek the truth to get your answer and not entertain the doubts. This is not the fault of shaytan as he's only giving you invitation to hellfire. This is the fault of humans by accepting his invitation and willingly disobeying Allah. Shaytan is also a test for us to see if we will follow him or follow Allah. Ofcourse us human beings aren't perfect and that's why Allah doors ti forgiveness is always open no matter how many sins you commit. And the correct answers we are giving you should make any muslim satisfied because its the truth. The Quran is the truth the sunnah is the truth so there's nothing to worry about unless you invite these worries.

you might wanna instead make some paragraphs when laying down different points, makes it easier to digest kkkkkkkkkk

again, provide the verse

قَالَ يٰۤـاِبۡلِيۡسُ مَا مَنَعَكَ اَنۡ تَسۡجُدَ لِمَا خَلَقۡتُ بِيَدَىَّ ؕ اَسۡتَكۡبَرۡتَ اَمۡ كُنۡتَ مِنَ الۡعَالِيۡنَ‏ 
(38:75) The Lord said: “O Iblis, what prevented you from prostrating yourself before him whom I created of My Two Hands.64 Are you waxing proud, or fancy yourself to be too exalted?”
64. These words have been used to point out the honor, rank and glory bestowed on man by his Creator. In other words, Allah did not get man created through his angels but created him by Himself because his creation was a highly noble task. Therefore, what is meant to be said is: What has prevented you from prostrating yourself before him whom I have made directly Myself?
The words be-yadaiia (both hands) probably are meant to refer to the fact that this new creation combines in itself two important aspects of Allah’s power of creation: (1) That man has been given an animal body on account of which he belongs to the animal kingdom. (2) That on account of the Spirit breathed into him, he has been characterized with qualities which place him in honor and merit above all earthly creations and creatures.
قَالَ اَنَا خَيۡرٌ مِّنۡهُ ؕ خَلَقۡتَنِىۡ مِنۡ نَّارٍ وَّخَلَقۡتَهٗ مِنۡ طِيۡنٍ‏ 
(38:76) He replied: “I am nobler than he. You created me from fire and created him from clay.”

قَالَ فَاخۡرُجۡ مِنۡهَا فَاِنَّكَ رَجِيۡمٌ  ۖ ۚ‏ 
(38:77) He said: “Get out of here;65 surely you are accursed,66
65. “Out of it”: From the place where Adam was created and where the angels were commanded to bow down before Adam, and where Iblis committed disobedience of Allah.
66. Lexically, the word rajim, as used in the original, means “cast off” or “smitten”; in common usage it is used for the person, who has been thrown down from a place of honor and humiliated. In Surah Al-Aaraf, the same thing has been expressed thus: Get out: you are indeed one of those who wish themselves ignominy. (verse 13).
وَّاِنَّ عَلَيۡكَ لَعۡنَتِىۡۤ اِلٰى يَوۡمِ الدِّيۡنِ‏ 
(38:78) and My curse shall remain upon you till the Day of Resurrection.”67
67. This does not mean that there will be no curse on him after the Day of Judgment, but rather it means: He will remain accursed till the Day of Judgment because of his disobedience, and after the Day of Judgment he will be punished for the sins which he will have committed from the creation of Adam until Resurrection.
قَالَ رَبِّ فَاَنۡظِرۡنِىۡۤ اِلٰى يَوۡمِ يُبۡعَثُوۡنَ‏ 
(38:79) Satan said: “My Lord, then grant me respite till the Day that they are raised up.”

قَالَ فَاِنَّكَ مِنَ الۡمُنۡظَرِيۡنَۙ‏ 
(38:80) He said: “You are of those who have been granted respite

اِلٰى يَوۡمِ الۡوَقۡتِ الۡمَعۡلُوۡمِ‏ 
(38:81) till the Day whose Hour I know.”

قَالَ فَبِعِزَّتِكَ لَاُغۡوِيَنَّهُمۡ اَجۡمَعِيۡنَۙ‏ 
(38:82) (Iblis) said: “By Your glory, I shall mislead them all

اِلَّا عِبَادَكَ مِنۡهُمُ الۡمُخۡلَصِيۡنَ‏ 
(38:83) except those of Your servants, the chosen ones from amongst them.”68
68. This does not mean: I will not lead Your chosen servants astray, but it means: I shall have no power over Your chosen servants.
قَالَ فَالۡحَقُّ  وَالۡحَقَّ اَ قُوۡلُ ۚ‏ 
(38:84) He (i.e. Allah) said: “This is the Truth � and I only speak the Truth �

لَاَمۡلَئَنَّ جَهَنَّمَ مِنۡكَ وَمِمَّنۡ تَبِعَكَ مِنۡهُمۡ اَجۡمَعِيۡنَ‏ 
(38:85) I will certainly fill the Gehenna with you69 and with all those among them who follow you.”70
69. “With you” is not only addressed to Iblis but to the whole species of satans. That is, Iblis and his whole army of the satans who will be joining him in misleading mankind till Resurrection.
70. This entire story has been related in answer to this saying of the chiefs of the Quraish: Was he the only (fit) person among us to whom Allah’s admonition should have been sent down? Its first answer was the one given in verses 9-10, saying: Are you the owners of the treasures of the mercy of your Mighty and Bounteous Lord? And does the kingdom of the heavens and the earth belong to you, and is it for you to decide as to who should be appointed God’s Prophet and who should not be appointed? In the second answer the chiefs of the Quraish have been told: Your jealousy, your pride and arrogance against Muhammad (peace be upon him) are similar to the jealousy and arrogance of Iblis against Adam (peace be upon him). Iblis had also refused to acknowledge the right of Allah to appoint anyone He pleased as His vicegerent, and you are also refusing to acknowledge His right to appoint anyone He pleases as His Messenger. Iblis disobeyed the command to bow down before Adam, and you are disobeying the command to follow Muhammad (peace be upon him). Your resemblance with him does not end here, but your fate also will be the same as has been pre-ordained for him, i.e. the curse of God in the world and the fire of Hell in the Hereafter.
Besides, in connection with this story, two other things also have been stressed: (1) Whoever is disobeying Allah in this world, is in fact, falling a prey to Iblis, his eternal enemy, who has resolved to mislead and misguide mankind since the beginning of creation. (2) The one who disobeys Allah on account of arrogance and persists in His disobedience is under His wrath: such a one has no forgiveness from Him.
قُلۡ مَاۤ اَسۡـئَـلُكُمۡ عَلَيۡهِ مِنۡ اَجۡرٍ وَّمَاۤ اَنَا مِنَ الۡمُتَكَلِّفِيۡنَ‏ 
(38:86) (O Prophet), tell them: “I do not ask you for any recompense for the performance of this task;71 nor am I given to affectation.72
71. That is, I am a selfless person: I have no vested interest in preaching this message.
72. That is, I am not one of those who arise with false claims for the sake of vanity and pose to be what actually they are not. The Prophet (peace be upon him) has not been made to say this merely for the information of the disbelievers of Makkah but this is testified by his whole life which he lived among the same people for forty years before his advent as a Prophet. Every child of Makkah was a witness that Muhammad (peace be upon him) was not an impostor. Never had anybody from among the people of Makkah ever heard anything from him which might have caused somebody the doubt that he aspired to be a great man and was planning and scheming for that end.
اِنۡ هُوَ اِلَّا ذِكۡرٌ لِّلۡعٰلَمِيۡنَ‏ 
(38:87) This is nothing but an Admonition for all people the world over.

وَلَتَعۡلَمُنَّ نَبَاَهٗ بَعۡدَ حِيۡنِ‏ 
(38:88) You will know the truth of the matter after a while.”73

There's no contradiction, ibliis didn't force Adam AS he only whispered .

so Iblis had nothing to do with Prophet Adam's removal from janah?
Would prophet adam be removed from janah if iblis didn't exist?

 

[pinkyandthebrain]

so Iblis had nothing to do with Prophet Adam's removal from janah?

Iblis convinced Adam to eat the forbidden fruit which he was told not to eat, But because of humans and their weakness, Adam fell.prey to shaytan trap and ate the fruit which ultimately got him to the earth. This was a divine decree from Allah as ofcourse Allah eternally knew this was going to happen. Remember when I said shaytan will do what it takes to get everyone in hellfire? thats what he's doing and he tried to do that with Adam aswell.
