58:19
What Weapon is the Satan afraid of?
Q. 89. One important question in connection with spiritual war is: What is the best weapon, among the weapons of the mu'mins, of which the Satan is afraid and what tricks does he use to overcome him?
A. The best and the most powerful weapon of a mu'min of which the Satan is in constant fear is the remembrance of God, therefore, he is always trying to cause the mu'min to forget God's remembrance, so that he may attack him (58:19).
The ta'wili wisdom of this verse is that the Name of God and His remembrance are the Imam of the time, who is the fountainhead of all physical and spiritual forces of mu'mins. Therefore, the physical and spiritual devils (6:112) always chase those mu'mins who are weak in faith and knowledge, to cause them to loosen their grip of the blessed hem (daman) of the pure and holy Imam.
This is the greatest weapon of spirituality and knowledge of a mu'min and this is the ta'wil of forgetting the remembrance of God, because of the Satan.
