Ibn al-Qayyim ‏رحمه الله:

“The example of obedience that grows and increases, is like a seed that you plant, which becomes a tree, then bears fruit, and you ate this fruit and planted their seeds again and whenever the tree bears fruit you eat it and plant its seeds. The exact example can be applied to sins and the way they increase.

There is an old proverb and the wise will understand it:

The Tongue Exposes that Which Rests in One's Heart:

‎Ibn al-Qayyim رحمه الله:

‎● {تفسير ابن كثير ٤:٣٤}

Ibn al-Qayyim رحمه الله:

‎“If a rank is decided by Allāh for a servant which he could not attain by his deeds, Allāh afflicts him with distress in his body or children or wealth, and makes him bear it in patience until he achieves that rank which was written for him.”

[Excellence of Patience & Gratefulness]

I used to go to the greengrocers’ shop and write using the light of his lamp. Then I realised that I had not asked the permission of the owner of the lamp to sit in its light so I went to the sea and washed away all I had written and wrote it again.
