I don't have the capability to ward him off other than Your Help!

I don't have the capability to ward him off other than Your Help! O Allah (S.w.T.)! If Iblis sets his sights on me, You must take care of him! If he plans to cause me harm, You inflict Your curse on him! Save me from his plots. Make the burden of his enmity fall on his own neck! I am seeking Your munificence! O most Beneficent of those who do kindnesses!

And the blessings of Allah be on Muhammad and his purified progeny.” Allah (S.w.T.) is Sufficient for His Creatures There is no doubt that if someone presents himself with total Tadharru as an insignificant and hapless creature and seeks only His help, accepts Him as the sole deliverer and seeks deliverance through Him, then seeks His protection from Satan's evil acts, Allah (S.w.T.) will definitely take him in His Protection. After assuring Allah (S.w.T.)'s Protection, deliverance is assured!

Therefore Allah (S.w.T.) Himself says: أَلَيْسَ اللَّهُ بِكَافٍ عَبْدَهُ Is not Allah sufficient for His servant? (Sura az-Zumar, 39:36) Recognizing the Enemy from Signs Recognizing the enemy and being aware of his existence doesn't depend only on visual observation. But definite signs too are instrumental in this recognition.

For example: If in the darkness of night, a stone comes from one direction and hits his face, and if there is a shower of arrows on the person, then he knows for sure that the enemy is trying to hurt him and is after his life and property. In such a situation, before investigating about the existence of the enemy, the person first tries to reach someplace of safety.

If there is a house nearby, he knocks at the door and asks for shelter from the householder and trusts himself totally to his care and seeks his help against the aggression of the unknown enemy. Therefore, if any person has the fear of Satan's attack, although he cannot see him, he searches for refuge from him. Satanic Attacks If one says that neither Satan can be seen nor his attacks witnessed, then how could one expect to escape from his attacks?

How could he seek protection from others against a seemingly non-existent enemy! The reply to this is that Satan's attacks don't go unnoticed. They are manifested through the fears, doubts and restlessness that confront the hearts of people day and night. He doesn't refrain a moment from this nefarious act of his. Some Humor Someone asked a wise person whether Satan too sleeps like men.
