*The Struggle Within: The Three Types of Hearts*
1️⃣ *A Sound [Healthy] Heart [القلب السليم]:* A heart devoted to Allāh alone. It:
❖ Loves, hopes, and relies on Allāh.
❖ Forgives others for His sake.
❖ Controls anger and desires for Him.
❖ Shows humility and kindness to all.
2️⃣ *A Dead Heart [القلب الميت]:* A heart enslaved to desires. It:
❖ Seeks only self-pleasure.
❖ A slave of its own desires.
❖ Chases wealth, even through ḥarām means.
❖ Lacks faith and sincerity.
3️⃣ *A Sick Heart [القلب المريض]:* A heart torn between truth and desires. It:
❖ Loves Allāh but also clings to worldly temptations.
❖ Has sincerity but at the same time, also loves the desires and prefers them.
📖Lagāthatul Lahfān by Imām Ibn Al-Qayyim
*Action Plan:* Read the following supplications:
*اللهُمَّ طَهِّرْ قَلْبِي مِنْ كُلِّ سُوْءٍ*
_“O Allāh purify my heart from every evil.”_
*اللهُمَّ طَهِّرْ قَلْبِي مِنْ كُلِّ خُلُقٍ لا يُرْضِيْكَ*
_“O Allāh, purify my heart from every characteristic that is not pleasing to You.”_
