**Ibn al-Jawzi رحمه الله said :

‎“Reciting the Qur’an heals the diseases of the heart just like honey heals the diseases of the body.”

‎التبصرة 79**

“The delays and detours. The patience and struggles. The waiting, meantime, and everything in between. It all serves a purpose. Hold on. There’s a reason for the test; perhaps Allah wants us to learn something from it.”

**Abdullah ibn Mas'ud narrated:

The Messenger of Allah (pbuh) said to us one day:

"Be shy of Allah as you should truly be shy of Him."

They said:

"We are shy (of Allah), O Prophet (pbuh)."

He said :

"It is much more than that. He who is truly shy of Allah, let him preserve his head and what it perceives, let him preserve his stomach and what it desires, let him remember death and afflictions, and he who desires the Hereafter abandons the adornments of this world. He who performs all these, is the one who is shy of Allah as he should be."

Sunan al-Tirmidhi, 2575**

**Ibn al Qayyim رحمه الله said:

"Sins generate more sins, and one leads to another, until they overpower a man and he finds it difficult to repent from that.

As one of the earlier generations said:

One of the punishments of bad deeds is more bad deeds and one of the rewards of good deeds is more good deeds.”

[Al-Jawab al-Kafi p. 36]**

**Ibn al Qayyim رحمه الله;

“Too much socialising, wishing for things, attachment to others besides Allah, filling one's stomach and sleep. These five affairs are among the greatest corrupters of the heart.”
