1- This story is doubted and only narrated to show all opinions
2- The only accepted source is Bukhari
3- It is a fact that the Bible claims that satan led Jesus and tempted him (Mark 1:12-13, Luke 4:1-2, Luke 4:5-6):
4- It is a fact that the Bible claims that satan dragged and led Jesus through this temptation for 40 days and 40 nights. It got so ridiculous that satan even had Jesus STAND on top of the temple (Matthew 4:5-10, Luke 4:10-12, it was as big as a fortress; see the Jewish wailing wall of today and how big it is), and hang from it pushing him and tempting him to jump and commit suicide
5- Where do Ibn Jarir al-Tabari (d. 310/923) and Ibn Sa'd claim to be the sources of the so-called 'Satanic verses'? It is precisely the opposite. They have only transmitted the story as it was transmitted to them. Al-Tabari mentions the so-called 'Satanic verses' story[2] in his Tarikh as well as an important set of statements in the introduction of his book, which states:
Let him who examines this book of mine know that I have relied, as regards everything I mention therein which I stipulate to be described by me, solely upon what has been transmitted to me by way of reports which I cite therein and traditions which I ascribe to their narrators, to the exclusion of what may be apprehended by rational argument or deduced by the human mind, except in very few cases. This is because knowledge of the reports of men of the past and of contemporaneous views of men of the present do not reach the one who has not witnessed them nor lived in their times except through the accounts of reporters and the transmission of transmitters, to the exclusion of rational deduction and mental inference. Hence, if I mention in this book a report about some men of the past, which the reader of listener finds objectionable or worthy of censure because he can see no aspect of truth nor any factual substance therein, let him know that this is not to be attributed to us but to those who transmitted it to us and we have merely passed this on as it has been passed on to us.[3]
