The answer

A human being is in a continuous struggle with Satan, who seeks to mislead him by all means. The believer's weapon against this enemy is seeking refuge in Allah and being wary of his whispers. To know Satan's methods, one must acquire religious knowledge, avoid paying attention to his whispers, and frequently engage in the remembrance of Allah and obedience to Him, for Satan weakens and shrinks with the remembrance of Allah. Satan may appear in human form. As for self-talk with Satan, most of it falls under the category of whispers that are overcome through obedience and remembrance.
