I don't get it, shaitan, iblis, devil, lucifer, whatever you want to call him doesn't need blind faith to know god exists. I don't know if he's seen god directly, but he has definitely seen what god can do and felt his power, and even heard and has followed his direct orders. He can probably appreciate the power of god better than any man, he has I'm guessing has seen heaven and hell too.

Yet he still went against a direct order of god. Why? Is he stupid or something? i.e. I don't think any man can be stupid enough not to follow a direct order of god if he knew everything the shaitan knew. I don't think any man who would heard gods worlds directly would be stupid enough to disobey him no matter how much pride he had in his heart.

What's the deal, is the shaitan mentally retarded or something?

So god and the devil made a pact, i.e. that the devil will be given permission to whisper into mans ear will judgement day to lead him off the right path, without physically or mentally influencing him, i.e. all the devil can do is whisper stuff into your ears to give help you create ideas in your own mind. And it is 100% your choice to act upon your thoughts.

So if the devil can stick to this agreement without breaking it, why not break the pact? if he has no issue in disobeying a direct order of god?
