Dhikr For Repentance

 

From Ibn Umar –RadhiAllaahu anhumma- who said:

“We would count that the Messenger of Allaah –sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam– would say in one sitting one hundred times:

رَبِّ اغْفِرْليِ وَتُبْ عَلَيَّ إِنَّكَ أَنْتَ التَّوَّابُ الرَّحِيمُ

“O my Lord forgive me and accept my repentance indeed You are the One who forgives and most merciful.”

Rab-bigh-firlee wa tub alayya Innaka anta at-Tawwaabur -Raheem

“A slave of Allah may utter a word which pleases Allah without giving it much importance, and because of that Allah will raise him in degrees...”

 

 .....

It is reported in the two saheehs from the hadeeth of Abu Hurairah (radiyallāhu ʿanhu) who said that Allah’s Messenger (salallāhu ʿalaihi wasallam) said:

إِنَّ الْعَبْدَ لَيَتَكَلَّمُ بِالْكَلِمَةِ مِنْ رِضْوَانِ اللَّهِ لاَ يُلْقِي لَهَا بَالاً يَرْفَعُ اللَّهُ بِهَا دَرَجَاتٍ وَإِنَّ الْعَبْدَ لَيَتَكَلَّمُ بِالْكَلِمَةِ مِنْ سَخَطِ اللَّهِ لاَ يُلْقِي لَهَا بَالاً يَهْوِي بِهَا فِي جَهَنَّمَ

“A slave of Allah may utter a word which pleases Allah without giving it much importance, and because of that Allah will raise him in degrees—and a slave of Allah may utter a word (carelessly) which displeases Allah without thinking of its gravity and because of that he will be thrown into the Hell-Fire.” 

(Bukhari, no. 6478)

The seven parts of the body are the cause of destruction and safety...

 

Ibnul Qayyim رحمه الله said:

The seven parts of the body, which are the eyes, the ears, the mouth, the tongue, the private parts , the hands and the feet are the cause of destruction and safety. They lead to destruction if the man does not control them and to safety if he takes care of them and protects them.

Sincerity is to be saved from Shirk and Riyā’

 

Fuḍayl ibn Iyaḍ (رحمه الله) said:

Performing an action for the sake of the people is Shirk, and abandoning an action for the sake of the people is showing off (Riyā’). And (true) sincerity is for Allāh to save you from both of them (Shirk and Riyā’).

Every time an individual performs a sin...

Ibnul Qayyim رحمه الله said:

Every time an individual performs a sin, he drops a level and will continue to fall until he ends up in the lowest state . However, every time he performs a good deed, he will be raised until he ends up in the highest position.

And whoever turns away from Allaah's reminder - indeed, he will have a miserable life...

 

وَمَنْ أَعْرَضَ عَن ذِكْرِي فَإِنَّ لَهُ مَعِيشَةً ضَنكًا وَنَحْشُرُهُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ أَعْمَىٰ .

124. "But whosoever turns away from My Reminder (i.e. neither believes in this Qur’ān nor acts on its teachings.) verily, for him is a life of hardship, and We shall raise him up blind on the Day of Resurrection.”
