The Reality of the Horns of Shayṭān

Compiled by: Dr. Raza Abdullah Pasha (ḥafiẓahullāh)


❖ Question:


Does Shayṭān have horns?


❖ Answer:


Yes, indeed!


It is narrated from ʿAbdullāh ibn ʿUmar (رضي الله عنهما) that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:
“Indeed, the sun rises between the two horns of Shayṭān.”
[Ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī, Ḥadīth No. 3273]



This means that at the time of sunrise, Shayṭān positions his horns before the sun. From this narration, it becomes clear that Shayṭān has horns, for the sun is described as rising between them.
