    ✅ [149] The Limitations of Satan’s Influence on Prophets

    This verse reveals that Shaitaan cannot mislead a Prophet, nor can he tempt them to commit sin. However, he can cause forgetfulness in non-essential matters.

    This shows the perfection of prophetic protection—while they are safeguarded from sin and misguidance, minor lapses like forgetfulness in worldly tasks may occur, serving to remind the Ummah of human limitations in non-religious matters.
