In Islamic demonology, Sut (مسوط) is one of the five sons of Iblis mentioned by Muslim ibn al-Hajjaj.[1] He is a devil who suggests lies.[2] His four brothers are named: Awar (اعور or لأعوار), Zalambur (زلنبور), Dasim (داسم), and Tir (ثبر). Each of them is linked to another psychological function, which they try to encourage to prevent humans spiritual development.[3]
