An Introduction to the Existential Wisdom of Satan in the Educational System of the Qur'an

The story of Adam Abu al-Bashar being deceived by the devil shows the severity of her enmity with the Bani Adam. The Qur'an mentioned Him as a long-standing enmity with man and as has the power of influence in man, and at the same time the weakness of his plans for the believers. On the other hand, the Holy Quran considers divine creation as a good system (Nizm-e-Ahsan). The research question is what place does the Holy Quran have for the devil in the good system? The research method in this paper is a descriptive method of content analysis. After referring to the interpretive sources and juxtaposing the verses related to the subject of the research, the word Satan and the truth of his existence are explained and then the existential wisdom and its place in the educational system of the Qur'an are analyzed. The findings of this article show that according to the view of monotheism, all objects in the universe are the manifestation of the names of God, and Satan is the manifestation of divine Misguidance in this area. Also, if the devil did not exist, the difference between pure and impure human beings would not be clear, and human education would not be realized in its true sense. In addition, even if only the sensuality was institutionalized in human beings, human education would not be complete without evil temptations.
