Satan is everywhere, as is Allah. Including inside of you. Satan doesn't get you in one savage blow, rather Iblis bleeds the soul one scratch at a time.

satan/ibliss is closer to what one could term energy....such as electricity or fire. Again....intention is key....for all of Allah's beings.

and if indeed the one you saw was Satan what is to stop him from telling you he is Gabriel? he is after all a great liar. No one can stop him from telling you he is Gabriel but since as you say, he is the great liar, all he does is tell lies. You must be keen and be able to recognize a lie even if it is wrapped in a beautiful package. We are bombarded by satan's lies all the time. That is why we are told to:

Assalamu A'alaykum wa Rahmatullahee wa Barakatu 1. Please tell me what information you found funny. 2. What information did you find weird? If you have knowledge that I don't have then it is better to convey the knowledge to me. If you see a mistake that I might have written the please tell me. However, to give answers like above are not very beneficial because I don't know if you found any mistake or you know something informative to share with me. Salam

Salam Try to refresh my memory: 1. Allah, subhanahu wa ta'ala, God of Abraham, Moses and Jesus, aleihi salam, who does not beget nor is begotten, created everything that is created. Allah created the moon, the sun, and he decorated the first heaven with stars. God Almighty created winds and clouds and the entire universe. He created living beings which means he created something and He put soul in to the creation and it became a living being a creature. The creatures were created from different materials. Allah created microorganisms such as bacteria, viren out of the material that God Almighty decreed and put soul in it. Allah created insects and spiders and worms from whatever material decreed. Animals were created by God Almighty out of dust and they will die and they will resurrect on the day of judgment and on the day of judgment they will become dirt again after the disputes are settled. God is the Creator of Mankind. He created us from dust which was mixed with water, so that it became clay. This clay was left in the sun for a while to that is became sticky clay and then black smooth mud. This black smooth mud was shaped in to the shape of Adam, aleihi salam, and it became clay like pottery, sounding clay. The soul was put into Adam and he lived. Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala created Angels, aleihi salam, from light. Allah took the ray of light and formed out of it the shapes of angels and he put soul in the "ray-body" of the angels, and they lived. They were created as a perfect creation and perfect creature worshipping Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala without sleep and glorifying Allah without failing. They never neglect their duties. They do not have a nafs, desires in their hearts. They just love to fulful their missions. God Almighty created Jinn not from light but from fire. Some say that it is dry fire similar to electricity or static. Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala took that fire and formed the shapes of the Jinn, including Iblees Lucifer, the Accursed, and blew the souls into their bodies so they lived. I you could have an impression of what a jinn could be like. They are like alcohol or intoxicant, when you consume it, it intoxicates you mind. 2. Jinn are creatures who live with us on earth. They are invisible for us but we are visible for them. Jinn can be good, bad, evil, wicked, or very righteous. Some Jinn are very righteous and other are sinful, others again are hypocrites or disbelievers. Jinn = Evil is not correct. There is a branch of evil jinn that specializes in the field of waswasa, evil whisper, these are the Shayateen, devils. They are not visible but they communicate with us through evil inspirations. This is what Satan is all about. He is not visible for us and he was not visible for Adam aleihi salam and Eve raheematullah. Don't think that Iblees appeared to them in the garden of eden in form of a serpent but he inspired them through waswasa, evil inspiration into their desires in their hearts. 3. It is true that there was a time when Iblees Lucifer was a very righteous Jinn. Although, he was a jinn he was elevated to a very high level among the angels. In a similar way, prophets such as Enoch Idrees, aleihi salam, Ilyaas Elijah aleihi salaam, and Isa ben Maryam binti Imran aleihi salam were elevated. However, Iblees in his high position became arrogant which is the true reason of his fall. This disobedience was not the mere reason for his fall but his arrogance. His intention was the main issue. Iblees did all there disobedience out of pride and arrogance not out of ignorance and foolishness, although he is a fool. 4. How cold he look like? Maybe like a jinn or like a poltergeist or like an intoxication. Allah knows best Salam
