مِن شَرِّ ٱلْوَسْوَاسِ ٱلْخَنَّاسِ
Min sharri alwasw a si alkhann a s i
"from the evil of the whispering, elusive tempter
  - Mohammad Asad
from the mischief of the slinking whisperers (Shaitan and his workers)
  - Muhammad Farooq-i-Azam Malik
from the evil of the lurking whisperer-
  - Mustafa Khattab
From the evil of the sneaking whisperer,
  - Marmaduke Pickthall
From the mischief of the Whisperer (of Evil) who withdraws (after his whisper) 6309
  - Abdullah Yusuf Ali

Evil insinuates itself in all sorts of insidious ways from within so as to sap man's will, which was given to man by Allah. This power of evil may be Satan, or evil men or the evil inclinations within man's own will: for there are "evil ones among men and Jinns, inspiring each other with flowery discourses by way of deception" (vi. 112). They secretly whisper evil and then withdraw, to make their net the more subtle and alluring.
