Shaykh Ibn Uthaymeen رَحِمَهُ الله said:

“‎If you see yourself deteriorate, pick yourself up by repenting and seeking Allāh’s forgiveness and by asking Him to keep you firm.

And don’t become careless, and neither say: “In sha Allāh, my eemaan will become stronger.' (without doing anything about it).

Instead from right now - from the moment you feel that you are ill - you must implement the cure.”

Two Things That Lead Most To Either Hellfire Or Paradise

‎عن أبي هريرة رضي الله عنه قال : قال النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم : تقدرون ما أكثر مَا يُدْخلُ النَّارَ ؟ قالوا : الله ُورسُولهُ أَعلمُ . قال : الأجَوفَان : الفَرجُ والفَمُ ، وما أكثر ما يدخل الجنة ؟ تقوى الله وحسن الخلق

From Abū Hurayrah Raḍi-Allāhu ‘Anhu who said: The Prophet Ṣallallāhu-‘Alaihi Wa Sallam said: “Do you know what is that makes most people enter Hellfire??!!”

They (the Companions) replied: “Allāh and His Messenger know best.”

He Ṣallallāhu-'Alaihi Wa Sallam said: “The two empty ones: the GENITALS and the MOUTH and do you know what is that makes most people enter Paradise??, it is TAQWĀ OF ALLĀH and GOOD CHARACTER.”

THE MOST DIFFICULT 3 DAYS UPON MANKIND

‎|[ أصعبُ ثلاثة أيَّام على الإنسان ]|

‎قال سفيانُ بن عُيينة - رحمه اللهُ -:
‎"أوحَشُ ما يكونُ ابنُ آدمَ في ثلاثة مواطن:

Sufyān b. 'Uyaynah Raḥimahullāh said: the most loneliest time that the son of Adam will be in is 3 situations:

‎ يومَ وُلِدَ فيخرجُ إلى دارِ هَمٍّ .

1. The day he is born and comes to the abode of stress and anxiety (i.e. The world).

‎ وليلةَ يبيتُ مع الموتى فيُجاورُ
‎جيرانًا لم يَرَ مثلَهم.

2. The night he will sleep with the deceased, so he will live beside neighbors he has never seen the likes of (i.e. The grave).

‎ ويومَ يُبعثُ فيَشهدُ مشهدًا لم يَرَ مثله !!

3. The day he will be raised up (from the dead) and he will witness the likes of that which he never witnessed before (i.e. The Day of Judgement).

‎قَالَ اللهُ تعالى ليحيى في هذه
‎الثلاثة المواطن :

‌‏﴿ وَسَلَامٌ عَلَيْهِ يَوْمَ وُلِدَ وَيَوْمَ يَمُوتُ
‎وَيَوْمَ يُبْعَثُ حَيًّا ﴾

‎[مريم : ١٥]

Allāh the Most High said to Yaḥya regarding these 3 situations:

"May peace and safety be upon him, the day he is born, the day he dies and the day he will be brought back to life"

Narrated Abu Qatada bin Rib'i Al-Ansari: A funeral procession passed by Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) who said,

"‏مُسْتَرِيحٌ، وَمُسْتَرَاحٌ مِنْهُ"‌‏
"Relieved and relieving?" The people asked, "O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! What is relieved and relieving?" He said,

"‏الْعَبْدُ الْمُؤْمِنُ يَسْتَرِيحُ مِنْ نَصَبِ الدُّنْيَا وَأَذَاهَا إِلَى رَحْمَةِ اللَّهِ، وَالْعَبْدُ الْفَاجِرُ يَسْتَرِيحُ مِنْهُ الْعِبَادُ وَالْبِلاَدُ وَالشَّجَرُ وَالدَّوَابُّ".
"A believer is relieved (by death) from the troubles and hardships of the world and leaves for the Mercy of Allah, while (the death of) a wicked person relieves the people, the land, the trees, (and) the animals from him."

So beware of not being pleased with Him even for the blink of an eye. Such that you fall in His eye.”

Do You Need Anything?

Have you noticed how your life becomes disturbed and difficult only when you disobey Him (‘Azza wajall)?!

Did you not know the story of one of the righteous predecessors who narrated that he saw a young man in the city of Beirut remembering Allāh, Most High, so he said to him, 'do you need anything?'

He replied: 'If I ever need something, I ask from my Lord in my heart and He will fulfill it for me.'
