In many religious traditions, including Islam, Christianity, and Judaism, the term "Shaitan" refers to a malevolent being often associated with temptation and evil. In Islam, Shaitan is commonly identified with Iblis, who refused to bow to Adam and was cast out of heaven. He is seen as a tempter who leads humans away from the path of righteousness. Shaitan is often depicted as a symbol of disobedience and rebellion against divine authority. In various texts, he is portrayed as a whisperer, instigating doubt and sin in the hearts of believers. His role serves as a reminder of the constant struggle between good and evil in human life.
