A pious man once said, love of this world and love for Aakhirah is like the East and West.

However close you get to one the further away you get from the other.

May Allah Swt Guide us. Ameen.

smaller diseases of the heart:

someone's right is taking away, he feels sad/frustrated. the right way to deal with this small illness is by giving him his rights back with justice. but if he transgresses against that person then his heart will be affected and he will become more aggresive and will find it easy to take people's right away from them.

someone's sad. we give him good news. but some people treat their sadness with the wrong type of happiness - eg: hurting other , taking their rights away = thats a disease of the heart.

^^this is easy to cure inshaaAllah

If we want Allah to forgive us, we should be forgiving of others and willing to overlook their wrongs. This is part of what it means to be good to others. Allah describes his believing servants as “those who restrain their anger and are pardoning towards people.” He then says: “Indeed, Allah loves those who do good.” [Sūrah Āl `Imrān: 134]

Indeed, Allah says: “And let not those of you who possess wealth and abundance swear against giving to the near of kin and the poor and those who have had to emigrate for Allah’s sake. They should forgive and forebear. Do you not love that Allah should forgive you? And Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.” [Sūrah al-Nūr: 22]

Overlook the faults of a Muslim.
When he cries, have mercy on him.
Conceal his shortcomings.
Accept his excuses.
Remove his difficulties.
Always be good to him.
Gaining his love is an accomplishment.
Fulfil his promises.
When he falls ill, visit him.
When he passes away, make dua for him.
Accept his invitation.
Accept his gifts.
When he shows kindness to you, show kindness to him in return.
Be grateful for his favours upon you.
Help and assist him at the time of need.
Safeguard his family and children.
Assist him in his work.
Listen to his advice.
Accept his intercession.
Do not make him feel despondent over his ambitions.
When he sneezes and says "Alhamdulillah", say "Yarhamukallah" in reply.
If you find a lost item of his, return it to him.

Oh Allah Grant me the taufeeq to practice upon this more than anyone else. Ameen.

By Mufti Muhammad Taqi Usmani
Translated by Shaykh Yusuf Laher

The Messenger of Allah (Allah bless him and give him peace) said: “That person who taunts and ridicules his Muslim brother over a sin from which he has repented, will not die until he himself commits that same sin.” For example, you come to know that a certain person committed or was involved in a particular sin and you also know that this person has repented from it. To think low of him or to taunt or ridicule him because of that sin, by saying something like: “You are the one who was involved in certain evil actions”, is in itself a sin.

One night Hazrat Mu'awiya was resting at home fast asleep. Suddenly someone woke him up for prayers. He looked around to find the person who got him up, but the person had disappeared. In surprise he said: "No one can enter my house at this time. I wonder who could have been so brave".

Then suddenly a person appeared at the door with his face hidden. He asked him: "Who are you?"
The person replied: "I am known by the notorious name of lblees, the one of ill-fortune".
Hazrat Mu'awiya asked: "0 Iblees, tell me, why did you wake me up? Tell me the whole truth".
He replied: "The time for salaah was running out and was nearly finished. You should hurry to go to the mosque".

Hakimul Ummah, Hazrat Maulana Ashraf Ali Thanwi (rahimahullah) said:

In our day and age, audacity and boldness in committng sins has become widespread, which is a very dangerous thing. There are some sins which people are involved in more than others. People consider those sins as insignificant. One of those detrimental sins is lustful glances. This is such a sin, that let alone the general layperson, even the elite are involved in it. They are involved in this sin in spite of the fact that they know it is extremely detrimental and damaging to the imaan and eventually leads to obscenity and shamelessness.

Angel Jibrail (as) told Rasulullah (peace be upon him) the follwing incident about a man in the past who worshipped Allah Ta'ala continuously for 500 years. He was granted a shelter on top of a mountain that was surrounded by salty water. However, Allah caused a stream of sweet water to flow through the mountain for that individual. The man would drink from this water and use it to make ablution. Allah Ta'ala also raised a pomegranate tree from which the man would eat one fruit every day.
