Allah is the only one who can protect us because He is theonlyLORD! Allah is the Lord of the Worlds, the King of all Kings, and the only God.So, what are we asking protection from? Allah tells us in Suratun-Naas what we need to ask protection from.The most dangerous thing in the world,.The whispers ofShaytaanYou see Shaytaancannot do anything to anyone without Allahspermission. All he can do is whisper suggestions and then wait to see if anyon to him.Afterhe whispershe runs away!

Why does he run away?If a person remembers Allah, and decides not to listen to Shaytaan, Shaytaan raway because remembering Allah is something that Shaytaan does not like.Why do we need protection from whispers?Whispers may not sound likesomething dangerous that we need protection from, but we do!We need protection because if someone listens toShaytaanswhispers, they arealways against Obedience to Allah and Rasool (saw)

Allah tells us exactly what to say in order to be protected...First, we say that w Allah to protect us. We are not asking protection from anyone else, like a polic

a teacher, or an Imaam, or even our mommy and daddy. Although all of those people are very important and can do things to help us inways, only Allah can protect us.

So now let's learn what Allah taught Rasulullah to say in Surah-Naas thatprotected him, and will protect us as well,insha-Allah

How can we keep away from Shaitaan ?We all have germs on our hands, right? Can you see those germs? No. Are those germs dangerous? Yes . Are you scared of germs? Probably not. As long as you wash your hands and take a bath eachday youare safe from germs.Well Shaytaan is like a germ!We all have a Shaytaan, we cantsee him, and he can be dangerous. But if we rem Allah, and recite the Moo`awwithatayn wewillWash that germy Shaytaan away!

ont be scared Be PreparedShaytaan wants you to be scared of him, and his friends(those who listen to him),so that you will listen to him, too.But Allah wants the whole world to be prepared to fight Shaytaan ,because he can not harm you !

Remember the story of Prophet Adam & his wife Hawwa'When they were in Jannah? Shaytaandid not hurt them, he could not hurt themWhat he wanted is for them to eat from the tree that Allah told them not to eatHe wanted them to disobey Allah. Why? Because Shaytaan wants to prove that other people will disobey Allah just like he did. So be prepared to fight ShDont be scared of him!
