Silsilat al-Ahadith al-Sahihah

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Sa‘id (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: “Indeed, Satan said: ‘O my Lord! By Your honor, as long as the souls of Your servants remain in their bodies, I will continue to mislead them.’ And the Lord, Blessed and Exalted, said in response: ‘By My honor and My majesty! As long as they seek forgiveness from Me, I will continue to forgive them.’”
