There’s nothing called being good or bad forever.
The lucky ones get to die when they are good.
Iblis just wasn’t lucky.
Death is unknown, a mystery—for us perhaps, but not for him. Not for Iblis.
Let’s hear the story that is chosen to be the first one told in the Quran—the latest Book of God.
It certainly wasn’t the first story that has ever happened in the universe nor is it the last. Yet the Book mentions about Adam and Iblis right in the beginning. Why?
Perhaps because stories begin with a protagonist who always faces a problem—a villain. Perhaps Quran places Adam—the humanity itself as the protagonist. And then it places the devil—the villain. The snake … The whisperer …
Devil whispered so I did it …
It’s Iblis’s fault, not mine …
Iblis made me, and I couldn’t stop …
Oh dear! Then who made Iblis do all he had done? Who lured the devil? Who whispered in his mind, then? And why did he fall? If there needs to be a devil for you to do what you want to do, then who the devil needed—to do whatever he wanted to do? Does it mean darkness existed all along? Even before the fall of Iblis?
This book may be the truth for the believers or a fantasy for the non-believers. This book tells you about the earliest story of mankind that is no less than an epic. It is about how counting and measuring, even if you are measuring virtue, will bring your fall. Why do we need to read it even after thousands of years? Because time may have changed, but human instinct hasn’t. Iblis and his followers use the same blueprint in every generation, all because people forget while they do not.
The wisdom of the past and the knowledge of your own history will be your only weapon against Iblis and against your own darkness. Therefore, we begin with the story of, perhaps, the greatest fall the universe has ever seen.”
