Islamic education level four and the
diseases of the heart and we talked
about some of them and we ask Allahh to
protect us from all diseases of the
heart. In this session inshallah tala
we'll talk about some of the principles
in trying to identify some of these
diseases of the heart and how to deal
with it. And when we say or principles
it's important for a student of
knowledge to learn principles so that
you can relate many different details to
it. A person can study it carry it with
him makes it easy for the person to
understand matters of knowledge. So
diseases of the heart is hidden and it
might be hidden from its own person. A
person is not aware that he has a
disease in his heart
and therefore we have to identify these
signs so that we identify the disease.
One of which is following the desires
following one's desire. A person has to
be truthful with his own self.
You know Allahh says
Allah wants to make you repent and to
lead you to repentance but those who
follow their desires they want you to
deviate far away deviation
to be away from the haka to be away from
the truth Allah subhana ta is saying
that to the believers so how can a
believer follows them so if a person
finds himself weak when when it comes to
following the desires that there's
there's a disease in the heart
mentioned those who have
the one that has a disease in his his
heart when it comes to the desire. So
this is a physical sign that shows
there's a sign there's a a disease in
the heart because the diseases in the
heart it's hidden but it shows in one's
speech and actions. So when a person
also deals with matters of doubt and
listen to doubt for matters and accepted
and finds himself in doubt this is
disease in the heart and as Allahh says
that when thean push or throw the these
doubts in the hearts for those who have
diseases in the heart you know so
therefore a person has to be careful and
not to allow himself to listen to doubts
and matters of dean and the way to cure
that is with knowledge and to humble
oneself to Allah subhana wa tala
and as the ayah that we just heard that
the shaitan when he throw these types of
things in the hearts for those who have
diseases in the hearts and
and those who their hearts are hard so
those who have disease in the heart
weakness of when it comes to certainty
believing in the truth so the doubts
affect them if they hear it from
Whether it's human or jin the other type
is those who have hardness in their
hearts. Their hearts are hard. That
means the admonition the reminders does
not affect them. So they have a disease
in the heart. So therefore they hear
something of the doubts and they would
make it as an evidence for them to be
upon falsehood.
So also one of these signs is that evil
actions and sins does not hurt the
person anymore. His heart is not in pain
anymore from the sins or it doesn't
bother him whatsoever that he's ignorant
about the truth. You know if that's the
case that means there's a disease in the
heart and a person has to take the means
of cure to cure his heart by doing the
opposite by repenting to Allah subhana
tala by seeking knowledge by exalting
what Allahh exalts
right sometimes people are even they be
in the extent of which saying that they
don't know they don't want to know some
of the rulings so that it does not
become difficult for them to stay away
from it if it's haram you know this is
how ignorance a person can reach such a
also when someone finds himself in his
heart he doesn't like the righteous
people he likes to be more with the
sinful ones you know his company is
those who are sinful those who abandon
the salah those who doing haram things
like this he becomes more comfortable
with them and he's less comfortable with
those who are righteous and obedient to
Allah that's a bad sign what should a
person do leave himself work on one's
heart and deal with the remedies for the
heart so that the heart will be purified
because you're depriving yourself from
the best thing of this life and that is
al the righteousness and the goodness in
one's faith and righteous good deeds
also to uh when a person finds himself
you know away from the of Allah he
doesn't feel comfortable with the
remembrance of Allah and he's busy more
and he's more comfortable in looking and
listening to all kinds of things. Even
though Allahh mentioned about the
disbelievers,
the disbelievers if Allah subhana ta his
name alone is mentioned they become
disgusted in their hearts and if they
their partners that they worship besides
Allah subhanaa tala are mentioned they
rejoicing and also in the level of sins
is when a person the becomes heavy and
there are many different reasons for
that is one of which is the disease
disease is in the heart. So a person
should do something about it and make of
Allah and seek make dua to Allah subhana
t remove the things that deprivives the
person from the remembrance of Allah and
being obedient to Allah.
So therefore uh dealing with these
diseases of the heart is to um pay
attention and to be alert before it gets
deeper in the heart because before it
gets more difficult to eliminate because
the effort will be more and a person
does not guarantee his life and this is
always with any disease physical disease
people do this if if something is dealt
with in the beginning stages in the
early stages of it it's easier for the
full cure to be there but if a person
leaves it does not take any means then
it can become in a state where it's out
of control so the same thing with the
deeds or the diseases of the heart and
to be watchful of the steps of shaitan
and the way to know that is the
knowledge of the dean of Allah or to ask
a person of knowledge many people they
only ask the people of knowledge when it
comes to the physical things
transactions money situations things
like this asking the people of knowledge
about things of the heart what to do
with my heart how to do how to deal with
this sin, how to be away from it and
things like this based on the Quran and
the sunnah of the prophetat
and also uh to uh have the proper
diagnosis of what's in the heart the
proper one
uh and you know has given some of the
examples if a person you know wearing
something nice is it kib is it arrogance
or he likes to look nice or something
like this as we heard in the hadith of
the prophet
This is clear. But sometimes a person
might wear you know clothing that the
clothes of the poor and think that this
is part of being having z or for people
to look at him and say mashallah such a
righteous person doesn't really care
about this worldly life that's also
condemned and he has a disease in his
heart. So to be at ease and to be always
watchful of what's in the heart and all
of that happens when a person is really
focused upon the book of Allah the Quran
following the way the prophetat was and
as mentioned before any disease in the
heart that you read in the Quran and
when you read the verses that talks
about the disbelievers look at the
characteristics mentioned because we are
also ordered to oppose that by having in
ourselves the opposite
types of actions.
Because as mentioned before any disease
of the heart the way to cure it by the
will of Allahhana is the is to do the
opposite of it.
So as mentioned that one of the early
generations of al- Islam
when he saw one of the people
he was dragging his garment and this is
something that is for forbidden and or
dragging one's garment of of arrogance
Allahh does not look at such an
individual meaning that he will be
punished in the day of judgment. So he
said to him that
this is a walk that Allahh hates and his
messenger sallallahu alaihi wasallam. So
that person he said don't you know who
who am I? Do you know who you're talking
to? Something like this. She says yes I
know you. And then he said to him,
which means your original status was a
dirty drop.
And the end of you, you will be a corpse
that is disgusted and people would not
even want to look at you. And between
that,
in between that, you're carrying inside
of you faces and impurities, trying to
put him down in his place to humble
himself.
So it was said that he left us. He was
reminded of that. So sometimes a person
has to remind himself or to remind
others so that we don't get carried
along with matters of arrogance and
things like this. And the advice you
know when you go to the doctor and the
doctor tells you that you have this
disease and you have to take this
medicine you say but if the doctor feels
that you know I don't want to make him
feel bad. So I say no you're fine go
home you're everything is fine and then
you your situation gets worse then
you'll be angry with this doctor. So
that's what that's why we have to give
advice to one another
and many people they don't acknowledge
what they have. So someone follows his
desire he think that he follows the
truth because of he has this false false
uh evidences that he invented or he
heard it from someone that is a deviant
or someone is arrogant. Have you ever
heard of someone saying I'm arrogant?
Most people they don't do these types of
things. He thinks that this is
determination. This is strong
personality. All kinds of things. Or an
envious person, he think that he's
trying to uh have an or attain an
objective that is good and someone that
having the disease of the love of this
worldly life, he thinks that this is
what he's doing as a result of taking
the means to establish the dean of Allah
subhana tala and so on. So that's why a
person should be firm with his own self
and taking the remedies of all of these
diseases to avoid it and also the people
of knowledge and asking the people of
knowledge and the people towards one
another to have the and the goodness and
the sincerity towards one another. We
ask Allahh to make us among those who
are sincere and to cure our hearts from
the diseases of the heart. We continue
next time.
