What does shaytan mean?

"Shaytan" is an Arabic term that translates to "Satan" or "devil" in English. In Islamic theology, it refers to any rebellious being that opposes God's will, often associated with evil and temptation. Shaytan is commonly identified with Iblis, who refused to bow to Adam and was cast out of divine grace. The term can also be used more generally to describe any malevolent influence or whispering that leads individuals away from righteousness.
