*Patience in Lowering the Gaze is Easier than Bearing Pain Afterwards*![Ibn al-Qayyim r.a.]




Bismillah Walhamdulillah Was Salaatu Was Salaam

 'ala Rasulillah '. 

 


As-Salaam Alaikum Wa-Rahmatullahi Wa-Barakatuhu  

 

 

Ibn al-Qayyim (rahimahullaah) said:-

 

 

"Looking ...... !!!

 

is the Origin of most of the problems that befall man~

 

 because looking generates thoughts,

 

then thoughts generate ideas,

 

and ideas generate desires,

 

 and desires generate will,

 

which then becomes stronger and becomes firm resolve ~

 

 in which case the deed will

 inevitably be done~

 

 Unless !!!

 

there is something to prevent it.

 

Hence it was said that:-

 

 patience in lowering the gaze is easier

 

than .... ???

 

patience in bearing the~

 

PAIN!!!

 

that comes Afterwards."

  "All that is on earth will Perish. But will abide {Forever} 
 the Face of thy Lord, full of Majesty, Bounty and Honour"
 {'Quran'- Surah Al-Rahman-55.26-27 }

'Wasting time is Worse than Death!

Because Death Separates you from this World

 Whereas wasting Time Separates you from Allah'.

Ibn Qayimm Al-Jawziyyah.

 

I Want to Die With my Forehead on the Ground!
The Sunnah in my Heart, Allah on my Mind,
Qur'an on my Tongue, and Tears in my Eyes!

'Insha Allah'! 

' Son of Adam! You are nothing but a number of days, whenever each day passes then part of you has Gone.

 {Al-Hasan Al-Basree}
