1:11:21Now PlayingYou’ve been told the story of Satan in Islam—how Iblis, a jinn, refused to bow to Adam and was cast out by God. But what if that story wasn’t originally Islamic at all? In this explosive video, we uncover the Persian roots of Islam’s Devil. Discover how ancient Zoroastrian myths reshaped the story of Satan, turning Iblis into a powerful, cosmic enemy that mirrors Persia’s Ahriman. From political agendas to mythological imports, this is the hidden history behind the Islamic Devil that no one talks about. If you've ever wondered how religion and empire rewrite evil itself—don’t miss this.
