I am anxious about a matter for several days. Now I am going to discuss about this. In Quran Allāh said to us that, not to take shaytan as our patron , guardian or friend etc . I provided an important link about this concern.

A thought came to mind that, when we want to do a halal work we all think about the method for completing the task. Normally our mind give us some suggestions for completing the task. a thought raised in my mind that, these thoughts or suggestions can be came from shaytan . I want to add here an example here :
Suppose I decided I want to buy a necessary dress for myself at a cheaper price rate. My mind give me a suggestion for going to market X . My mind said me that this suggestion can be came from shaytan as he wants that , we use his thought or suggestion , by doing so we will take his help this indicates that we take him as our patron or sponsor .
Sir, I want to add , When I stand for Salat many thoughts and ideas came to my mind that is necessary for my daily life . In fact some ideas are very useful for solving my problems . I try my best to avoid these thoughts and ideas as i know that we should be attentive to Allah during Salah. one hadith say saytan inject these type of thoughts in our mind during Salah. For example , i can mention when i get an idea about solving a software program problem in Salah . by using these ideas do we make shaytan as our guardian , patron or friend etc ?
