Satan Disowns His Followers
14:22 And the devil will say, after the judgment had been issued, “ GOD has promised you the truthful promise, and I promised you, but I broke my promise. I had no power over you; I simply invited you, and you accepted my invitation. Therefore, do not blame me, and blame only yourselves. My complaining cannot help you, nor can your complaining help me. I have disbelieved in your idolizing me. The transgressors have incurred a painful retribution.”
14:23 As for those who believe and lead a righteous life, they will be admitted into gardens with flowing streams. They abide therein forever, in accordance with the will of their Lord. Their greeting therein is: “Peace.”
This shows that in this world people can say whatever they want irrespective if it is truthful or not, but on the Day of Judgment only the truth will be spoken.
What power does Satan have?
