Are you worried, anxious, or feeling a tightness in your chest?
Ibn al-Qayyim رحمه الله reminds us that sins weigh heavily on the heart, and the cure is repentance and seeking forgiveness.
Stop, reflect, and return to Allāh today.
A woman is shrouded in five pieces of material after her death! If she needs all this covering in the event of her death! Then how about her condition during her life in this world!

Shaykh Ibn ʿUthaymīn - رحمه الله
So, do not be deceived by the righteousness of your outward actions. Look, before anything else, to your heart. I ask Allah to rectify my heart and your hearts. The most important thing is the heart.
Sharḥ Riyāḍ al-Ṣāliḥīn · Vol. 3, pp. 277–278
Do we reflect deeply on the qurʿān when we read it?
Do we intend to seek true guidance from what we recite?
Do we not wonder how the qurʿān has no, or little effect on us?
When are we going to correct our situation & recite the qurʿān the way we should, for the desired result?
The only person you’re better than in reality is the one you fear Allāh more than and the only person better than you in reality is the one who fears Allāh more.

The only thing that matters to Allāh, is the Taqwā of Him.
An advice for every parent.Teach your children Soorah Al-Fātihah.A soorah that is read at least 17 times a day.Why miss out on such tremendous rewards&let someone else get that reward?!Inshā-Allāh they live a long&righteous life, imagine how many times they would have recited it!
We persist in sins & disobedience due to weakness in our tawḥīd.
We are not able to worship Allāh upon iḥsān due to weakness in tawḥīd.
We neglect certain obligations due to weakness in tawḥīd
We will only do better if we seek knowledge of tawḥīd & strive to implement it.
If you’re not familiar with who and how the salaf were, you wouldn’t be able to understand alot of things they say.
I reflected in how lost & confused i would probably be (except of Allāh willed otherwise) if i had read some of their statements back then before salafiyyah.
Ibn Taymiyyah:
When the heart tastes the sweetness of its servitude to Allah and its love for Him, nothing becomes more beloved to it than that,until it prefers it over everything else. By this, evil and indecency are deflected from those who are sincerely devoted to Allah.

Ibn Taymiyyah رحمه الله said:
Many a time, hidden desires infiltrate the soul, corrupting its pure love for Allah and its servitude to Him, and the sincerity of its religion to Him.

If only we could treat our parents, wives and dear ones the way the great Salafi scholar- Shaykhul Islaam Ibn Taymiyah رحمه الله treated his enemies, a narration that brings tears to one's eyes and makes one think about the way we treat others especially those close to us...
