  • God's Competition With Satan

    Posted by Muhammad Wasif on March 7, 2022 at 11:02 am

    A friend of mine asked this question to me yesterday that when Satan refused to do sajda to Adam. Then he said I will now detrack your This creature and he got power to do so. Isn’t it a competition sort of thing by God? That HE asked him okay do whether you want to and i will see. Also God already had the knowledge that Satan won’t do Sajda to Adam so why did he bring a sort of competition in this and that too with Satan that is created by HIM?
    Anyone please guide me about this matter in detail

    God has knowledge of everything, but God doesn’t let His knowledge influence our actions, whether it be Satan or any other human being. Iblees committed istakbar in front of Allah, and because of Allah’s overall scheme of test and trial for both human beings and jinns, he was given respite till the day of Judgement. It was not a competition per se, it was respite given as a necessary result of the overall scheme of test and trial.
