How Did Shaytan Deceive the Disbelievers at Badr?

Brothers, sisters, friends and elders Assalamu Alaikum, wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuhu, we are presenting the 135th episode of the Islamic informative video based on healing and events from the Holy Quran,and in this video we will describe,How Did Shaytan Deceive the Disbelievers at Badr?

At the Battle of Badr, one of the most remarkable events recorded in the Qur’an is how Shaytan (Satan) deceived the disbelievers, giving them false confidence before the battle and then abandoning them at the critical moment. This incident is mentioned in Surah Al-Anfal, verse 48, where Allah reveals the psychological warfare that took place before the physical confrontation. Shaytan’s role was to mislead, embolden, and manipulate the disbelievers into confronting the Muslims, only to expose them to destruction and divine punishment.

Allah says in the Qur’an Surah Al-Anfal verse 48:

"And [remember] when Satan made their deeds pleasing to them and said, 'No one can overcome you today from among the people, and indeed, I am your protector.' But when the two armies sighted each other, he turned on his heels and said, 'Indeed, I am disassociated from you. Indeed, I see what you do not see; indeed, I fear Allah. And Allah is severe in penalty.'"

This verse exposes the true nature of Shaytan’s deception. Before the battle, Satan whispered false promises to the Quraysh, making them feel powerful and invincible. According to the Tafsir of Ibn Kathir, Shaytan appeared in the form of Suraqah ibn Malik, a chief of the Banu Mudlij tribe, and assured the Quraysh that they would have his support and that no tribe would attack them from behind. His words gave them false courage and a sense of superiority over the Muslims, which pushed them into battle without caution or strategy.

However, when the reality of the battle set in and the angels descended to aid the Muslims, Shaytan’s façade crumbled. He saw what the disbelievers could not — the unseen forces of Allah arriving to support the believers. Out of fear for his own safety, he fled the scene, abandoning those he had lured into war. His confession, "Indeed, I see what you do not see; indeed, I fear Allah," is a stunning admission that even Shaytan fears the punishment of Allah, though he is the ultimate enemy of mankind.

The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) also commented on this deception. In Sahih Muslim (Hadith 2762), it is narrated that the Prophet said, “Verily, Shaytan has despaired that the worshippers would ever worship him in the Arabian Peninsula, but he is satisfied with sowing discord among them.” This shows that even though direct idol worship may decline, Shaytan continues to mislead people through arrogance, division, and false promises — exactly as he did at Badr.

Furthermore, Shaytan's abandonment of the disbelievers serves as a timeless lesson. He encourages sin, pride, and rebellion, only to leave his followers to face the consequences alone. This is echoed elsewhere in the Qur’an Surah Al-Hashr verse 16:

"Like the example of Satan when he says to man, 'Disbelieve.' But when he disbelieves, he says, 'Indeed, I am disassociated from you. Indeed, I fear Allah, Lord of the worlds.'"

This consistent pattern of betrayal is the essence of Shaytan’s nature. He deceives by making evil appear good, then deserts the sinner in their hour of need. The Quraysh at Badr fell victim to this exact trap. Their arrogance and confidence, stoked by Shaytan’s lies, led them to an unwinnable war against a small but divinely aided Muslim army.

In addition to being a historical account, Surah Al-Anfal verse 48, serves as a warning to all who place their trust in worldly power, pride, or evil whispers**. Shaytan may promise victory, wealth, or protection, but his ultimate goal is destruction. He uses deception to lead people astray and abandons them when they face divine justice.

In conclusion, Shaytan played a key role in pushing the Quraysh toward their defeat at Badr by deceiving them with false promises of support and power, only to flee and disown them when Allah’s help arrived for the believers. This incident, vividly captured in Surah Al-Anfal, verse 48, and explained in Hadith and classical tafsir, reveals the deceptive nature of Shaytan and the importance of relying solely on Allah. It is a lasting lesson that arrogance, pride, and trust in false sources of power lead only to humiliation and failure.

With this, we ask for your permission until tomorrow and pray to Allah Almighty to grant us the ability to act on the Quran and Hadith, Amen
