Shaykh Fawzaan stated:
“Clear distinction is not
attained except when trials and tribulations occur, the true believers are the firm and steadfast while the
deceptive hypocrites stumble.
Kitaabul Kabaa’ir 554-555

Sa’īd Al-Khudri رضي الله عنه reported:
The Prophet ﷺ
said, “The life of the world is sweet and green. Allāh makes you generations succeeding one another so that He may try you
in respect of your actions. So beware of the beguilements of the world and
those of women. The first trial of Banu Isrāel was through women.” [Muslim]
Riyād-us-Sāliheen
vol. 1, p. 90, Darussalam
Ibn al-Qayyim رحمه الله
stated:
“So whoever loves that Allāh would
replace his bad deeds with good deeds, then he should exchange the bad
treatment that he receives from others with kindness. And whoever knows that
sins and bad deeds are innate to mankind, then he would not dwell on the bad
treatment that he receives from others.”

Khabbāb
Ibn al-Arath رضي الله عنه took me by my hand and said:
“Seek nearness to Allāh with
whatever you are able, and you cannot draw nearer to Allāh with anything more
beloved to Him than His Speech (the Qur’ān).”

‘Abdullah Ibn Mas’ūd رضي الله عنه
said:
“If you see a man among
yourselves committing a sin do not supplicate to Allāh against him and do not insult him. Instead, supplicate to
Allāh to cure him and to accept his repentance , for verily, when we used to
see a man ending upon good, we would have hope for him, and when we used to
see a man ending upon evil, we would fear for him.”

The Physiological and Spiritual Affects of Sins on
The Body and Heart:
Ibn Al-Qayyim رحمه الله said:
Doctors of old said, “Whoever seeks to acquire
good health for the body should consume less amounts of food and drink. Whoever
seeks the well-being of his heart, let him abandon sin.”
Also, Thabit bin Qurrath said,
“The body’s well-being requires consuming less
food, the soul’s comfort is in committing less sins and the consolation of the
tongue is in uttering less speech.”
Ibn al-Qayyim رحمه الله said,
Sins are just like poison to the heart – if they
do not destroy it, they will weaken it. Then when the heart is weaker, it will
become less efficient in fighting disease.
The biggest of the heart’s ills occur by
satisfying its lusts and desires, while ignoring them constitutes its biggest
cure.
We should also mention that originally, ignorance
and injustice were created in the self (nafs). Because the self is ignorant, it
thinks that its cure is in the following its desire, although this path leads
it to its destruction and demise.
He
رحمه الله also said,
Four matters harden the face and rid
it of its youth and health:
Lying, rudeness, asking too many questions without
knowledge (or useful purpose) and sinning.
Four matters increase the youth of the
face:
Chivalry, faithfulness, generosity and fear of Allāh.
Four matters bring
about anger and hatred:
Arrogance, envy, lying and
spreading calumnies.
Four matters bring
sustenance:
Standing up in prayer at night,
seeking forgiveness (of Allāh) often at night, giving away in charity and remembering
Allah morning and evening.
Four matters prevent
sustenance:
Sleeping in the morning (after
fajr), not praying often, laziness and treachery.”
