Abandoning Bad Habits for the Sake of Allāh
Ibn al-Qayyim (رحمه
الله) stated: “One only finds difficulty in quitting habits
when he leaves them for other than Allāh.
As for the one who quits them truthfully and sincerely from his heart for Allāh
then he only finds difficulty in quitting at the very beginning, to ascertain
whether he is truthful or lying about stopping. So if he is patient with that
hardship for a little while, it will turn into delight”
