Satan easily manages to deceive human beings and make them do all sorts of evil deeds.Allah has given us free will by which we can ignore the tricks of satan and not come under his influence. However, there are lots of ignorantpeople amongst us who are unable to differentiate good from evil. They cannot make out what is a good action and what is considered to be evil. Well, everything that goes against the Quran and Hadith is evil and doing something that is against the teachings of Allah is akinto following satan. Allah has forbidden us to follow the satan in the Quran,قُلْ هَلْ أُنَبِّئُكُم بِشَرٍّ مِّن ذَلِكَ مَثُوبَةً عِندَ اللّهِ مَن لَّعَنَهُ اللّهُ وَغَضِبَ عَلَيْهِ وَجَعَلَ مِنْهُمُ الْقِرَدَةَ وَالْخَنَازِيرَ وَعَبَدَ الطَّاغُوتَ أُوْلَـئِكَ شَرٌّ مَّكَاناً وَأَضَلُّ عَن سَوَاء السَّبِيلِ (5:60)• 5:60 (Asad) Say: "Shall I tell you who, in the sight of God, deserves ayet worse retribution than these? They whom God has rejected and whom He has condemned, and whom He has turned into apes and swine because they worshipped thepowers of evil: [77] these are yet worse in station, and farther astray from the right path [than the mockers]." [78] -chapter:5, verse:60,تَاللّهِ لَقَدْ أَرْسَلْنَا إِلَى أُمَمٍ مِّن قَبْلِكَ فَزَيَّنَ لَهُمُ الشَّيْطَانُ أَعْمَالَهُمْ فَهُوَ وَلِيُّهُمُ الْيَوْمَ وَلَهُمْ عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌ (16:63)• 16:63 (Asad) By God, [O Prophet,] even before thy time have We sent apostles unto [various] communities: but [those who were bent on denying the truth have always refused to listen to Our messages because] Satan has made all their own doings seem goodly tothem: and he is [as] close to them today [73] [as he was to the sinners of yore]; hence, grievous suffering awaits them. -chapter:16, verse: 63فَوَرَبِّكَ لَنَحْشُرَنَّهُمْ وَالشَّيَاطِينَ ثُمَّ لَنُحْضِرَنَّهُمْ حَوْلَ جَهَنَّمَ جِثِيًّا (19:68)• 19:68 (Asad) And so, by thy Sustainer, [on Judgment Day] We shall most certainly bring them forth together with the satanic forces [which impelled them in life][52] and then We shall most certainly gather them, on their knees, around hell; -and chapter:19, verse:68.
