Istiʿādhah: Defence Against the Mischiefs of the Menacing Shayṭān

Istiʿādhah: Defence Against the Mischiefs of the Menacing Shayṭān

Allāh created everything and perfected everything that He created. One of the signs of His perfection is that Allāh created everything in pairs: He created all things and their opposites, such as night and day, male and female, good and bad, sun and the moon, etc. Accordingly, human is very feeble and weak. One can never do anything without Allāh. One always needs to ask Allāh for all forms of good and seek refuge in Allāh from all forms of evil.
