said to them, “O Ādam! O Ḥawwāˈ! This is your enemy. Observe the punishment being inflicted upon him.” When they see that accursed individual suffering the pains of death and convulsing, they will say, رَبَّنَا قَدْ اَتْمَمْتَ عَلَیْنَا النِّعْمَۃَ  – “O our Lord! ˹By punishing our enemy in this way˺ You have completed your favour upon us!”

In the end, after great agony, Satan will finally die.^[1]

Dear Islamic brothers! Look at the humiliation Satan will face. Think about the unimaginable punishment he will suffer. And this is just what will happen when he is dying; nobody can imagine the punishment he will suffer on the Day of Judgement and in Hellfire.

Do you know why he will be punished? Are you aware of what will lead him to this horrific end? This is because he disrespected Sayyiduna Ādam عَـلَيْـهِ الـسَّـلاَم, a prophet of Allah. He showed arrogance to a prophet, rejected the command of Allah, and followed his own desires over divine command. This is why he became accursed and rejected.

May Allah protect us from falling into arrogance. May He allow us to always show the highest levels of respect for the prophets, saints, and pious people.

اٰمِیْنْ بِجَاہِ خاتَمِ النَّبِیّٖن صلَّی اللہُ عَلَیْہ ِوَاٰلِہٖ وَسَلَّمَ

An introduction to the angel of death

The angel of death عَـلَيْـهِ الـسَّـلاَم holds a high rank and is loved by Allah. His name is ʿIzrāīl, which means, “he who obeys Allah.” He is appointed to take souls and does not slack in this matter in the slightest. When somebody reaches their final moment, he takes their souls without a second’s delay.
