Why do people still do bad things in Ramadhan?

Assalamualaikum.

A student asked his teacher : "If the shaytan ( devil ) is locked up during Ramadan , why do people still do bad things? "

Teacher answered : "What happens when you stir a cup of coffee for a long time? After you take the spoon out the coffee continues to stir on its own, right ? Shaytan is that stirrer and we are his coffee. Our bad habits continue to stir even when he is away."

How about your 'coffee'? Still 'stirring'? :)

As seen in Facebook

Tata! Peace upon be you :)
