Spiritual Disease and Its Cure by Imam Shams-ud-Deen Muhammad bin Abi Bakr bin Qayyim AlJ awziyyah

The sin is the cause for disgrace from Allah

Al-Hasan Al-Basri, may Allah have mercy upon him, said: "Allah ~ disgraces them (sinners) as they disobeyed Him. If He ~ had honoured them, He ~ would have safeguarded them from committing sins; and those Allah ~ humiliates will have no one to honour them; for He ~ said: (Whomsoever Allah disgraces, none can honour him) 3 A person also continues to commit a sin until he attaches little importance to it, and the more a sin becomes insignificant to a person, the more it becomes serious and great in the Sight of Allah. Ibn Mas'ud ~ said: "A believer sees his sins as if they were the base of a mountain, which he fears might fall on him; whereas the sinner considers his sins like some flies landing on his nose, which he repels so they fly away."4

3 Surat Al-Hajj, Verse 18. 4 Recorded by Al-Bukhari in the "Book of Supplications", (chapter 4), At-Tirmidhi in the book, "The Resurrection", ( chapter 49) and Ahmad in hi s Musnad ( 1/383).
