قَالَ أَنظِرْنِىٓ إِلَىٰ يَوْمِ يُبْعَثُونَ 14

He said: Now, because Thou hast sent me astray, verily I shall lurk in ambush
for them on Thy Right Path-

Then I shall come upon them from before them and from behind them and from

Commentary
It is
commanded that when Iblis (Satan) was exiled, He thought: It was a big thing. As he was created from fire, so He was
ill-tempered. He thought also that: Nothing will be, if I would consider myself
great, because actual Power and Honor is in the Hand of Allah only, otherwise,
there is no other form. As I have been degraded, now I can do nothing by being
good. The only form is that I should demand power from Allah to make Adam
(peace be upon Him) and His children sinner. And that power should be like it –
that I may use that power to mislead the human beings until any individual from
the children of Adam (peace be upon Him) is living in the world.
After making such plan and being disappointed from all sides, He cried
before Allah Almighty: I should be retained living till happening of the Day of
Resurrection and I should be given so much power that I may do, whatsoever I
desire, without any minute examination. You have Power to punish me as You wish
on the Day of Judgment.
There is no delay in the Court of Allah Almighty. That will be given to
every such person, whichever and whoever deserves and demands. And it was known
also that He (Satan) cannot mar the management of the world. Therefore, Allah
Almighty permitted Iblis to do whatever He wished and
said: Lo! Thou art of those reprieved.
That
was it – the desire of Satan’s heart was fulfilled. He was becoming blind in
the ardent zeal of revenge from Adam (peace be upon Him), and began to dance
with pleasure. If you wish to guess regarding running mad in pleasure by Iblis,
then you would have to see the condition of that individual, who has been saved
from the punishment of death, converted into imprisonment for life, after
hearing his appeal by the Criminal Court. Such person, really, runs mad due to
passion of the pleasure.
Similarly, Iblis (the
Devil) sang for joy and said addressing the Most Superior Authority (God
Almighty): I will show You too that; what would I have done. I shall not let
Adam (peace be upon Him) and His children go the Right Path. In this
connection, I shall try my best. I shall encircle them from all sides and set a
trap heart-alluring and of wickedness. And I am sure; maximum people from them
will get out of their senses after being entangled in My trap and they will
think nothing about You (Allah Almighty).
At that time Allah Almighty rebuked Iblis (the
Devil) carelessly and said: Go! You are free. Try your best. Its consequence
will come before you.
