Let's Learn A Little About Our Enemies

About this lecture

In this lecture, the speaker explores the methods Iblis uses to lead human beings astray, drawing on the classical works of Ibn al-Jawzi's *Talbis Iblis* and Ibn al-Qayyim's writings to outline six major traps — from causing disbelief and beautifying innovation, to exploiting major sins, minor sins, lesser acts of worship, and the people closest to us. The talk also emphasises the critical importance of Islamic knowledge as the light that protects believers from doubt, desire, and misguidance in the modern world. Practical examples from contemporary culture, social media, and university life are woven throughout to make the lessons immediately relevant.
