The doors of success have been closed...


Bismillahir Rahmaanir Raheem



“The doors of success have been closed upon the creation because of six things:
  
  • They busy themselves with the blessings of Allah instead of thanking Allah for them. 

  • Their desire for knowledge while they abandon actions, 

  • The hastiness to sin and delaying repentance,

  • The deception of having righteous companions and not taking them as examples,

  • The turning away of the dunya from them whilst they still chase it, 

  • And the approach of the afterlife towards them whilst they turn away from it.” 



~ Ibn Al-Qayyim Al-Jawziyyah (Rahmatullahi ‘alayh)
