This indicate that a righteous child benefits his deceased parents with supplication. It is further demonstrated here that he can benefit them by spending sadaqah, as well as doing other charitable deeds, on their behalf. What benefits him also is teaching and disseminating the knowledge, printing a useful and beneficial book that remains after him, or establishing a charity, the rewards of these things continue to reach him as long as they continue to exist.

Though we should not obsess over Satan in any way, there is great advantage in knowing that in spite of what power he may yet retain, he is limited because he has no power over the servants of God - except what power we allow him to have. This knowledge of Satan also reminds us of his power to deceive; however, we are not to be ignorant of his devices because Satan is always ready, willing, and able to mislead and ensnare anyone who is unprepared and undiscerning. Satan will always be what and who he is. Let’s keep our eyes fixed on Allah, knowing that we are victorious through Him, and by doing so, greatly minimize any possibility of becoming victims of Satan’s schemes.
