Transliteration:( Innahoo laisa lahoo sultaanun 'alal lazeena aamanoo wa 'alaa Rabbihim yatawakkaloon )
"Indeed, he has no authority over those who believe and put their trust in their Lord [225]."
By placing trust in Allah Almighty, it means the devil cannot mislead the Prophets and certain Saints of Allah Almighty,
nor can he induce them to commit sins.
The common Muslims, upon whom Allah Almighty has bestowed His grace,
too cannot be made infidels, apostates, or heretics by the devil.
But as far as Shaitaan's suggestions and temptations are concerned,
sometimes even the Prophets fall prey to it.
Says Allah Almighty:
"Thus the devil (Shaitaan) put evil suggestions in their hearts" (S7: V20).
Therefore, there is no inconsistency in the verses.
