2a] Traps of Iblees ~{Details- http://bit.ly/ LxgK84}

2a]
It is not possible to encompass one of Iblees' evils, let alone all of
them. Since Iblees' evil is of six types, Iblees remains behind the
son of Adam until he gets him to do one or more of these six evils.
One THE FIRST EVIL IS THE EVIL OF KUFR AND SHIRK and enmity to Allaah
(SWT) and His Messenger (sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam). If he gains
this from the son of Adam, his moaning is eased, and he rests from his
ordeal with this man. Further, this is the first thing Iblees
wantsfrom the worshipper (al-'Abd). If Iblees gains this, he makes
this person part of his army, one of hissoldiers, and he appoints him
as a deputy or agent against other human beings. Then, this person
becomes one of the deputies or callers of Iblees.
Two If he despairs of enticing him with the first evil, and if this
person is one of those for whom it was written that he would be
aMuslim in his mother's womb, Iblees tries:
the SECOND CLASS OF EVIL. THIS IS BID'AH (innovation). Iblees loves
Bid'ah more than debauchery and disobedience because the harm of
Bid'ah is in the essence of the religion. Moreover, it is an
unrepentable sin and is against the call of the messengers and is a
call toa message different from the one conveyed by Ar-Rasool. Bid'ah
is a gate to Kufr and Shirk. Therefore, if Iblees gains the
performance of Bid'ah from a person and makes him one of the people of
Bid'ah, he also becomes one of his agents and a caller of his.
Three If Iblees fails and is unable to trap Al-'Abd at this class,and
if he is one of those who were granted by Allaah (SWT) the gift of
As-Sunnah and hatred of the people of Bid'ah and error, he proceeds
to:
the THIRD CLASS OF EVIL, which is the class of MAJORSINS in their various forms.
Iblees is very covetous of letting a person fall into major sin,
especially if he isa scholar who is followed. Iblees is covetous of
that, so that he may repel people from him and spread his sins and
disobedience amongst the people. He uses some people as his agents to
spread this person's sins under the false pretence that this will help
them to get closer to Allaah. But in fact this person is the deputy of
Iblees without knowing it. For those who would like abomination tobe
spread amongst the believers there is a great torment in this life and
in the Hereafter especially if they take charge of spreading about
enormities, not out of advice, but by obeying Iblees and being his
agent.All this is to repel people from the Scholar and from his
benefit.
Furthermore, the sins of this person (scholar), even if they reach the
sky, are less to Allaah (SWT) than the sins of those who would like to
spread his sins about. The scholar's sins are wrongdoing to himself.
If he seeks forgiveness from Allaah (SWT) and repents, Allaah (SWT)
will accept his repentance, and He will change his bad deeds to good
deeds. However, the sin of those who spread about abominations are
doing wrong to the believers by looking for their mistakes and by
intending to expose them. Allaah (SWT) is in close observation, and He
knowsabout this ambuscade. Nothing hidden in the chest or soul is
hidden to Allaah (SWT).
Four If Iblees is unable to snare Al-'Abd at this degree he moves him to:
the FOURTH CLASS, or the MINOR SINS. These sins may ruin a person if
they accumulate. That is why Ar-Rasool (sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam)
said, Be aware of the minor sins, because the simile of the minor sin
is like the peoplewho went to a desert. Then he (sallallaahu 'alaihi
wa sallam) mentioned a Hadeeth the meaning of which is that every one
of them brought a stick of wood until they had kindled a huge fire
(just as the minor sins add up littleby little until they become a
major sin). The person continues taking the matter of minor sins
easilyuntil he considers them inconsequential. Therefore,a person who
commits major sins but fears their effect is in a better condition
than he is.
Five If the Al-'Abd has prevented Iblees from trapping him at this
level, he moves him to the fifth level:
The FIFTH LEVEL IS TO OCCUPY HIM WITH PERMISSIBLE THINGS that do not
gain him reward or punishment. However, the punishment of this level
is caused by passing the reward missed by being occupied with these
deeds.
