Discipline The Path To Spiritual Growth

A believer's life is characterised by struggle and labour to purify the soul and strive towards doing good deeds that please our Lord, Allah, and the Most High. Because of this, self-discipline is crucial to achieving the spiritual development that all souls need. Every human being battles their inner demons on a daily basis. But only the truly strong and sincere can subdue these urges and assaults and triumph over the powers of desire. Humans require food, drink, and clothing, and they also need to discipline their souls and make amends for their shortcomings.In today's society, people often neglect the self and the need for it to be reformed upon the teachings of the Qur'an and the beautiful example of our beloved Prophet (SAW) and his Companions.As humans, we tend to focus on what is apparent and neglect the spiritual dimension of oneself. For this reason, the book before you will not only fill that void but will also be a means of rectifying the self.With the blessing of Allah, the Most High, this guide's importance and necessity in our worldly world cannot be overstated. The writer, may Allah have pity on him, talks about the wonders of the heart and how to heal its illnesses, self-discipline, and controlling one's yearning for one's stomach and intimate areas in this installment. It also discusses how to handle malice, envy, pride, and verbal flaws. The book ends by discussing the negative effects of greed, boasting, praise for material gain, and self-delusion, as well as how to heal these illnesses that undermine the spirituality of anyone looking for the hereafter. The ultimate triumph is over one's own ambitions. If these are treated and conquered, it will result in a joyful and contented existence on Earth as well as provide access to the everlasting "salvation of the Hereafter." All souls want correction; therefore, hasten, o soul, to achieve that which is honourable and exalted.Amin, may Allah make us pure and spotless before we go from this realm of transition and enter the Hereafter.
