    consequences

    ofShi tk in

    mind while

    reciting it.

    we recite the Qur'an, first we

    should

    recite the following:

    the outcas t . f l rom

    Satan ,

    in Al l ah

    I

    seek re fuge

    .Iou

    think Shaitan

    is close to Allah's

    mercy? He is

    rejected;

    outcast;

    1rOwn away fIOm Allah's mercy_

    Qur'an

    Allah

    i l l

    Safety lust;

    'Buckle

    up';

    Get

    protection.

    Translation:

    r

    seek

    refuge

    in Allah f rom S a ~ the outcast.

    First feel the insecurity

    caused

    by the attacks ot Shaitan. He

    constantly whispers

    and

    instigates us to disobey Allah

    .

    Feel

    happy and have

    hope

    as well as fear when Allah

    is

    mentioned.

    _ Allah is high up

    in

    the sky but

    He

    is very close to us.

    He

    even knows what we think.

    Feel

    the presence

    ofShaitan

    and

    of

    the

    two angels

    who

    are

    always

    with

    us.

    W e

    cannot hit Shaitan,

    nor kill

    him. nor convince him

    to become good. He will

    always try

    to take us away f rom Allah. The only solution is to recite the above.

    Why is

    Rajeem

    mentioned? So that

    we

    always keep his status alive

    in our

    mind. This

    Rajeemwants

    us.to

    follow

    him and

    become

    Jike.
