Restore your peace with Quran   

A man of bad character punishes his own soul.

You will never find happiness until you clean the garden of your heart from the poisonous plants of envy, hatred, spite, and resentment.


Narrated An-Nu'man bin Bashir: I heard Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) saying, ...Beware! There is a piece of flesh in the body if it becomes good (reformed) the whole body becomes good but if it gets spoilt the whole body gets spoilt and that is the heart. [Sahih al-Bukhari 52]


those who purify their souls will certainly have everlasting happiness. and those who corrupt their souls will certainly be deprived (of happiness). (Quran 91 : 9 - 10)


...there is no change in the words of Allah... [Quran 10 : 64]


Ziyad bin `Ilaqah narrated from his uncle, that he said: “[The Prophet (ﷺ)] used to say: ‘O Allah, I seek refuge in You from evil character, evil actions, and evil desires (Allāhumma innī a`ūdhu bika min munkarātil-akhlāqi wal-a`māli wal-ahwā’).’” [Jami` at-Tirmidhi 3591]


Why is a true believer free from all bad character?

A true believer strives to leave bad character because he knows that if he commits any wrong deed, he will be held severely accountable for it on the Day of Judgment. So, he becomes more careful about how he speaks, acts, and treats others.


Weak faith in the Day of Judgment and a weak connection with Allah produce bad character traits such as arrogance, jealousy, hatred, lying, oppression, and pride, etc.


But a strong connection with Allah and true faith in the Day of Judgment produce humility, patience, mercy, honesty, forgiveness, and self-control.





Taqwa (God-consciousness)

To stay away from sin, you need Taqwa (God-consciousness), not just knowledge. Knowledge shows you the path, but taqwa keeps you away from sin.
