Who is ulimate bad guy?

يَا بَنِي آدَمَ لَا يَفْتِنَنَّكُمُ الشَّيْطَانُ كَمَا أَخْرَجَ أَبَوَيْكُم مِّنَ الْجَنَّةِ يَنزِعُ عَنْهُمَا لِبَاسَهُمَا لِيُرِيَهُمَا سَوْآتِهِمَا إِنَّهُ يَرَاكُمْ هُوَ وَقَبِيلُهُ مِنْ حَيْثُ لَا تَرَوْنَهُمْ
“O children of Adam, let not Satan tempt you as he removed your parents from Paradise, stripping them of their clothing to show them their private parts. Indeed, he sees you, he and his tribe, from where you do not see them.” – Qur’an, 7:27

إِنَّمَا ذَ‌ٰلِكُمُ الشَّيْطَانُ يُخَوِّفُ أَوْلِيَاءَهُ فَلَا تَخَافُوهُمْ وَخَافُونِ إِن كُنتُم مُّؤْمِنِينَ

“That is only Satan who frightens [you] of his supporters. So fear them not, but fear Me, if you are [indeed] believers.” – Qur’an 3:175

إِنَّمَا يُرِيدُ الشَّيْطَانُ أَن يُوقِعَ بَيْنَكُمُ الْعَدَاوَةَ وَالْبَغْضَاءَ فِي الْخَمْرِ وَالْمَيْسِرِ وَيَصُدَّكُمْ عَن ذِكْرِ اللَّهِ وَعَنِ الصَّلَاةِ  فَهَلْ أَنتُم مُّنتَهُونَ
  “Satan only wants to cause between you animosity and hatred through intoxicants and gambling and to avert you from the remembrance of Allāh and from prayer. So will you not desist?” – Qur’an, 5:91

Of the tactics which Shaytan avails is humiliation, terror and anger. Skin-tight, low-neck, short, transparent and flashy shirts, skirts and pants are Satanic clothing designed to degrade and insult women's character and personality. Such clothing portrays women as cheap, brainless, and insolent and promiscuous. Violence against women is the result of wearing satanic clothing.

Shaytan strikes terror and fright in the hearts of young children through horror cartoons and movies, storybooks and music. He arouses them to intimidate and shock other on days such as Halloween. From Halloween costumes to candy, everything is Satanic, intended  to spook and terrify people.

Shaytan magnifies our problems and intensifies anger and confusion in our hearts until we fight and curse; yell and hurt our family and friends, neighbours and strangers. Shaytan avidly thirsts for arguments and bickering, for slapping and snatching. Through smoking cigarettes, drinking and gambling he sows more rage and fury in our hearts. He kills our health, misuses our wealth and shames us further. Shaytan will not rest until he has made us forget Allah and become heedless in Salah.

Allah says Shaytan is eyeballing us constantly. He is laying in wait to pounce at us and devour us entirely. Shaytan is our worst enemy. Check yourself: Do I wear Hijab properly and cover my body with full sleeves' long shirts? Do I fear Allah alone? Have I stopped watching and reading Satanic TV shows and books? Have I abandoned bickering and have I given up swearing? What is the condition of my Salah? Do I concentrate and pray with love and respect for Allah? How much do I remember Allah outside of Allah?
