Ibn al-Qayyim:
“Whoever hopes in something then that hopes necessitates
three things:
1. Love of who or what one hopes in
2. Fear of losing what is hoped for
3.Striving to attain what one hopes for the best of one’s
ability
As for the hope that does not have any of this, then it is
in fact, from the mere, flimsy wishes rather than true hope in Allaah. Hope is
one thing and false wishes is another thus everyone who hopes (in Allaah) fears
(disobeying Him)…”
