[2]- And Cherisher of Mankind+ man’s relation to Allah may be viewed in three aspect 1) Allah is his Lord,Maker,and Cherisher ; Allah sustains him and cares for him ; He provides him with all the means for his growth and development,and for his protection against evil ; 2) Allah is his kingor ruler ; more than any eartly king,Allah has authority ,to guide man’s conduct, and lead him to ways which will make for his welfare ; and He has given him laws; and 3) Allah is He to whom mankind must return,to give an account of all their deeds in this life (2:156); allah will be the judge; He is the goal of he Hereafter, and the only Being entitled to man’s worship at any time, from all theseaspects man could and should seek Allh’s protection against evil. [3]- Of the Wishperer +Evil insinuates itself in all sorts of insidious ways from withinso as to sap man’s will, which was given to man by Allah, This power of evil may be satan or his host of evil ones, or evil men pr the evilinclinations within mans own will ; for there are “evil ones among men and jinns, inspiring each other with flowery discourses by way of deceptipn” (6;112), They secretly whisper evil and than withdraw,to make their net the moresubtle and alluring.
