Abstract
The Satan is one of the most important and challenging concepts in different religions especially in Judism, Cristianity, and Islam. According to these religions, the fate of the man will be in facing with Satan. The authentic teachings of revealed texts could protect the believers against this enemy. Studying and analysing the Holy Quran and the Bible analytically and comparatively can help us declare the essence, description, and postion of the Satan and it’s similarities and differences in these Holy texts. The Satan is described in both texts as a human-like creature having the power of reasoning, free-will, and responsibility but rebellious and rejected from the God’s court. He is an enemy and a devastator factor for Humankind but but with different essences and actions in the Bible and the Quran. Described as an Angle in the Bible and as an Elf or Ginny in the Quran, the Satan’s power of dominance also includes the power to deviate even the prophets and to enter the realm of death; but the Quran considers his power at most to deviate and tempt Mankind to darkness as sees no way for him to dominate on Prophets and the faithful believers.
