and remember Allaah The Almighty often in general. This is because if
the tongue is busy with the remembrance of Allaah The Almighty, it
will keep the mind and heart busy with it; thus, the Muslim will not
find time to thinkof something other than Allaah The Almighty.
- You should read a portion from the Quran every day with reflection
and humbleness, even if it is a single page.
- Start memorizing the Quran gradually; it is the best thing to help
you overcome this problem. This step is also one of the most important
signs of success of the cure, like performing the Fajr prayer. If you
find yourself memorizing the Book of Allaah The Almighty easily,
without difficulty, this is also an indication that desire does not
control your heart. This has happened to a large number of young
people.
- Supplicate Allaah The Almighty at all times. Allaah The Almighty
becomes angry with the Muslim who does not supplicate Him. Saythe
following blessed supplication that the Prophet used to say as much as
you can. He would say : "Allaahumma inni as'aluk Al-huda wat-tuqa
wal-'afaafa wal-ghina (O Allaah, I ask You for guidance, piety,
chastity, and self-sufficiency.)" [Muslim]
- You must give charity, particularly giving charity in secret as it
extinguishes the anger of Allaah The Almighty. Give charity every day;
it does not necessarily have to be a large sum, but give it according
to yourcapacity. Perhaps one Dirham of such charity may outweigh one
thousand Dirhams.
- Fasting every Monday and Thursday. The Prophet said:"O youth,
whoever among you who can afford the expenses of marriage let him
marry, and whoever does not afford it let him fast, for it is a shield
for him." [Al-Bukhaari] However, let your fasting be 'real' in order
to achieve the effect mentioned by the Prophet in the Hadeeth that
fasting would be a shield and a means of protection and prevention for
you.
True fasting is not only abstaining from food and drink, but also
abstaining from lust, sins, and misdeeds throughout the fasting
period. Do not say, "I am fasting", when you do not feel something is
changing in you. The problem here is not in the fasting itself; the
problem is with you. The same thing happened with the Prophet when a
man came to him and said, "My brother has a stomach ache." The Prophet
said to him: "Let him drink honey." The man came for the second time
and said, "The honey increased his stomach pain." The Prophet said the
same thing to him. This happened three times and the fourth time, the
Prophet said: "Let him drink honey." The man replied, "The honey
increased his stomach pain." The Prophet then said: "Allaah hassaid
the truth, but your brother's stomach has told a lie." So, he made him
drink honey and he was cured. [Muslim]
Attachment to the Hereafter:
Free yourself from the capture and constraints of this life and rush
to Paradise that is as wide as the heavens and the earth which
contains all that the souls desire and delights the eyes, and in which
you will abide eternally. Indeed, it is folly to sell gold for dust,
and to sell the beautiful Hoors (celestial maidens), who have not been
touched by humans or Jinns, for a woman, no matter how beautiful she
is inthis worldly life. Now come with me and enjoy listening to the
Hoors, of whom the Prophet said: "The wives of people of Paradise sing
to their husbands in the best voice one has ever heard. Their songs
include: 'We are good and beautiful, the spouses of noble people; and
look with comfortable eyes.' Theyalso sing, saying, 'We are immortal
and never die; we are secured and never fear; we are those who abide
with their husbands and never leave them.'" [At-Tabaraani (Al-Albaani:
Saheeh)]
Dear brother and sister, listen to the description of Al-Hoor by Imaam
Ibn Al-Qayyim where he says, "When she appears the beauty of her face
shines like the sun, and light shines from between her teeth if she
smiles. When she meets her beloved husband, then say whatever you will
regarding the meeting of two lights! When she talks to him, what do
you think the conversation of two lovers wouldbe? When he embraces
her, whatdo you think the embracing of two branches would be like? If
she were to be revealed upon theworldly life, she would fill what
isbetween the heavens and the Earth with a beautiful scent, and the
creatures would not help glorifying, praising and exclaiming the
greatness of the Creator, and everything between the East and the West
would be adorned for her, and every eye would be shut from everything
but her, and the light of the sun would be outshone, just as the light
of the sun outshines the light of the stars, and everyone on the face
of the earth would believe in the Ever-Living, the One Who sustains
and protects all that exists.
"The cover on her head is better than the world and all that is in it,
and her contact with him is more pleasant than her best wishes. She
does not increase with age except in beauty and with living except in
love and union. She is free from pregnancy, childbirth and menses, and
pure of mucous, saliva, urine, stool and other filthy things. Her
youth never fades and her clothing is never worn out. The garment of
her beauty is not ragged, nor does the sweetness of her companionship
become boring. Her affection is restricted to her husband, so she
desires none buthim, just as his affection is restricted to her so she
is the sole object of his desire and wish.She pleases him when he
looks ather; she obeys him when he orders her; she guards his honor
when he is away from her. He is with her in utmost safety and
security, as none has touched herbefore of either humans or Jinn.
Whenever he looks at her, she fills his heart with happiness; whenever
she talks to him, she fills his ears with eloquent and well-versed
words as beautiful asa chain of pearls; when she appears, she fills
the palace and room with light; when she sings, she is a delight to
the sight and hearing; when she amuses and entertains, how great the
amusement and entertainment are; and when she kisses, nothing is more
desirous to him than this kissing."
After all of this, you allow a soul which is a persistent enjoiner of
evil or a weak devil to make you attached to a passing desire and
transient pleasure and to give up all this beauty! Respected brother,
be sure that the more your faith increases in your heart,the weaker
the power of sexual desire will be over you. Therefore,have
determination and perseverance, for, by Allaah, therecertainly is no
better endeavor you do than the endeavor to draw close to Allaah The
Almighty and attain His pleasure. - - ▓███▓ Translator:->
