On Whom Devils Descend
هَلۡ أُنَبِّئُكُمۡ عَلَىٰ مَن تَنَزَّلُ ٱلشَّيَٰطِينُ ٢٢١
Shall I inform you upon whom the devils descend.
Translation: Marmaduke Pickthall
Meaning
Shall I inform you upon whom the devils descend?
Insight
According to Elmalılı, after showing the Qur’an cannot be devilish suggestion, it now tells on whom devils descend, clearing the Prophet of this.
Reflect
Stay away from qualities devils approach.
