﷽ Satan lured Adam and Eve into eating from the forbidden tree, and in that moment, their nakedness became apparent to them. This important event is detailed in the Qur'an. Satan whispered to them, making them aware of what had been concealed. He tempted them by saying that Allah did not forbid them from the tree except to prevent them from becoming angels or immortals. Deceived by his words, they ate from the tree, and suddenly, their private parts were exposed.

He said, 'Your Lord has forbidden this tree to you only to prevent you from becoming angels or immortals.' O children of Adam!

Temptations that attract you robustly are your biggest enemies. They wrapped themselves under the sheaths of amusement and pleasure and will make you feel like they are taking you to the places where you find nothing but contentment but that's a momentary satisfaction and will fade away in the near future.

But as long as you cling to the divine book of ALLAH (SWT) you will get ALLAH'S protection and shaytan will have no power over you.
