Shaikh ‘Uthaimeen: “If You See Yourself as Sluggish in Regards to Good…”

With regards to the saying of Allaah, The Most High:

 {وَلَكِنْ كَرِهَ اللَّهُ انْبِعَاثَهُمْ فَثَبَّطَهُمْ وَقِيلَ اقْعُدُوا مَعَ الْقَاعِدِينَ}

((But Allaah disliked their being sent, so He made them lag behind, and it was said [to them]; “Remain [behind] with those who remain.”)) (At-Tawbah: 46)

Shaikh Muhammad bin Saalih Al-‘Uthaimeen (rahimahullaah) said:

 {وَقِيلَ اقْعُدُوا مَعَ الْقَاعِدِينَ}

((and it was said [to them]; “Remain [behind] with those who remain.”))

Be careful and inspect: if you see yourself as sluggish in regards to good – then be fearful that Allaah dislikes your being sent forth in good. Look again for a second time and ask your soul to accustom itself upon patience and oblige it upon obedience – and so today you carry it out reluctantly whilst tomorrow you will carry it out obediently and so it will be light for you...
