Qurb- treatment for heart 2
THE REMEDY for ujub/vanity-Always regard excellence and virtues which one possesses to be the bestowal of Allah Ta’ala. Contemplate on the power of Allah and fear the possibility of the gifts being snatches away. Ponder about your faults, both internal and external so that the notion of perfection and holiness is annihilated.
THE REMEDY for takabbur– by reflecting on the Splendour, Glory and Majesty of Allah Ta’ala. This reflection will produce in one a realization of one’s own lowly position. humble yourself in the presence of those whom you regard as your inferior. Be respectful to them so that you become imbued with humility.
THE REMEDY for HIQD (MALICE, AVARICE) – to overlook the fault of the one for whom Hiqd is entertained and to associate with him irrespective of the difficulty one may experience in the adoption of such a big-hearted attitude.
THE REMEDY for hubb-e-jaah-Meditate on the futility of hubb-e-jaah. Neither the one who honours nor the one who is honoured will remain. All will perish. It is therefore childish to be delighted over such a transitory and illusionary attribute. Contemplating in this way will eliminate this malady.
THE REMEDY for hubb e duniya-Remember maut (death) in abundance / do not involve yourself in distant and remote hopes. In this way the love of the world will be eliminated from the heart. “Die before your death.” This Hadith means that one has to inculcate the attribute of the dead in one even before death, and that attribute is the lack of worldly love.
DYING BEFORE DEATH (This is the life which Rasulullah Sallallahu alayhi wasallam desired for his Ummah).These attributes which are in the perfect state in the dying man(as is the position at the time of maut) are:
Taubah (repentance)-to emerge from all evil
zuhd, (abstention)- to shun the world and everything in it
Qanaa’at (contentment)- abstention from lowly desires– to be contented
tawakkul (trust in Allah)- to shun all abnormal worldly agencies
Azlat (solitude)- to sever all ties with creation
Tawajju I’lallaah
(attention directed to Allah Ta’ala)-only Allah Ta’ala attention
sabr (patience)- to shun pleasures
Ridhaa (pleased with Allah)- to abstain from pleasing the nafs
Zikr (remembrance of Allah)- to submit in entirety to Allah Ta’ala
muraaqabah (meditation)-the body is on earth, but the rooh should be directed to the Aakhirah, and be in communion with Allah Ta’ala.
When I want to talk to allah I say prayers and when I want that he talk to me I recite quran- Hazrath Ali(ra)
