Shaytaan can’t see us succeed. He asks Allah for time and he will show Allah how he can bring us down. Allah didn’t give us directions. He (swt) also told us about the obstacles we will face and who is our enemy.
What makes us human is we feel guilty after a sin. Shaytaan comes to us and convinces us to sin again. Shaytaan makes us justify our sins, we start to make excuses like “I was angry, I was stressed”.
This is another step away from Allah. Then we continue to sin and eventually blame Allah for it. This is how shaytaan slowly takes us away from Allah.
