Summary of the story of each Messenger
Teach the Lord’s message and you are Blameless

55 But teach thy Message: for teaching benefits the Believers.

When Satan says the Truth?
Satan is the liar but when his job is done he will say the truth because there is no need for him to lie anymore.
This is the Satan’s talk to his party and his people:
Do not blame me but blame yourselves.
This upcoming affair is not found in the Bible.
Surah 14:22
And Satan will say when the matter is decided: “It was Allah Who gave you a promise of Truth: I too promised but I failed in my promise to you. I had no authority over you except to call you but ye listened to me: then do not blame me rather blame yourselves. I cannot listen to your cries nor can ye listen to mine. I cannot help you nor can you help me. I reject your former act in associating me with Allah. For wrongdoers there must be a Grievous Penalty.”
