Stop the desires of the nafs with the brake of Taqwa<\/h2>

Protection against sin lies in picturing the Day of Qiyamah. When a person reflects on standing before Allah SWT, and the presentation of his deeds, then it becomes the \u2018brakes\u2019 which stops the \u2018car of nafs\u2019 speeding towards ghunaa (sin). The struggle of life in this dunya is to reverse off the road of sin, onto the \u2018autobahn\u2019 of Taqwa. Allah Rabbul Izzat loves when a person holds the nafs back from it\u2019s desires. Allah SWT mentions in the Holy Quran, \u2018Waliman khafa maqama rabbihijannatan\u2019 \u2013 the person who fears standing before his Rabb will get two Jannahs. Allama Alusi (R) explains beautifully in Ruh al-Ma\u2019ani that one Jannah will be that of the Aakhirah, and this Dunya too will become Jannah for such a person, as he will be constantly under the Mercy of Allah SWT. The heart that is in the Thikr (remembrance) of Allah SWT will find absolute peace and contentment. We should hold fast to, and make a practice of reading short Ayahs relating to Islah-e-Nafs and Ihsan, so that in a moment of weakness we will be reminded through it. Just as we renew our wudhu when it breaks, if we \u2018break\u2019 our Taqwa by committing sin, take the \u2018ghusl of Taubah\u2019 and restore Taqwa. The struggle against the nafs continues till death, but even if the nafs knocks us down from time to time, we do not give up and become despondent but keep fighting back, till death. Allah SWT has kept open the door of Taubah, and desires to manifest His attribute of Forgiveness upon His sinful servants. <\/p>\n
