Sins- the effect

Fwd’ing

Bismillah Ar Rahman Ar Raheem

Assalaamualaikumwarahmatullahiwabarakatu,
Peace to Non Muslims,

Abdullah ibn umar (radhiyallaho anhum) narrated:

"Rasulullah (sallallaho alaihe wasallam) said, "The hearts get rusted as does
iron with water. When someone asked, "what could cleanse hearts again?’
Rasulullah (sallallaho alaihe wasallam) said, “Frequent remembrance of death
and recitation of Qu’ran.”

It is mentioned in some ahadith that when a man commits a sin, a black dot
stains his heart. If he repents in real earnest, this dot is removed, but if
he commits another sin, another black dot appears. In this way, if he goes on
committing sin after sin, his heart gets completely blackened. At this stage
the heart becomes quite disinclined to do good, and keeps on turning to evil.
May Allah ta’ala save us from reaching such a stage.
