Fasting requires a person to stay away from that which breaks his fast. But in reality, those who truly benefit from their fasting are those who stay away from sins and increase in righteous deeds. This was the way of our righteous predecessors.

Healing by Akhlaaq
You will be surprised to know that among 6236 verses of Quran, 1504 verses (24 %) are for Akhlaaq while 130 verses (2%) are for Ibadaat, which means that almost *one fourth of Quran* is all about Akhlaaq, it exhibits the importance of building our morale & character as per the teachings of Islaam, & how good Akhlaaq can improve our health & save us from diseases can be understood.
On the contrary, how bad Akhlaaq will ruin the health is obvious, bad Akhlaaq will destroy the family, relation between a husband & wife, bad Akhlaaq will reduce the respect of parents in children, respect of brothers & sisters, etc. Bad Akhlaaq will bring mental stress, grief, and depression.
With abundance of wealth, bad Akhlaaq can ruin the pleasure of life with Allah’s wrath, while in poverty, good Akhlaaq can fill the life with happiness, blessings, and Allah’s Mercy.

Prayer is heavy for he who does not have khushūʿ (humility) in it, and khushūʿ is heavy for he who is weak in yaqīn (certainty) in Allah:
{ وَإِنَّهَا لَكَبِيرَةٌ إِلاَّ عَلَى الْخَاشِعِينَ * الَّذِينَ يَظُنُّونَ أَنَّهُم مُّلاَقُوا رَبِّهِمْ }
“And indeed, it (prayer) is extremely heavy and hard except for the Khāshiʿūn (people of khushūʿ); Who are certain that they will meet their Lord.” [Al-Baqarah 2:45-46]
الصلاة ثقيلة على من لم يخشع فيها والخشوع ثقيل على ضعيف اليقين بالله (وإنها لكبيرة إلا على الخاشعين الذين يظنون أنهم ملاقوا ربهم)

Ibn 'Abbas (May Allah be pleased with them) reported that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) used to supplicate:
"O Allah! To You I have submitted, and in You do I believe, and in You I put my trust, to You do I turn, and for You I argued. O Allah, I seek refuge with You through Your Power; there is none worthy of worship except You Alone; that You safeguard me against going astray. You are the Ever Living, the One Who sustains and protects all that exists; the One Who never dies, whereas human beings and jinn will all die. "
[Al-Bukhari and Muslim] .
Ibn Sirin رحمه الله said. "If Allah wants good for a servant, he places in his heart a preacher; commanding him [with good] and forbidding him [from evil]."
[Hilyatul Awliya: 3/264]

Charity protects the person as stated in the Hadith
“Doing good (to the people) protects one from misfortunes, secret charity extinguishes the anger of the Lord, and keeping ties with kinship increases one’s life span.”

You should be thankful for being a soft hearted person because you are dearer in the eyes of Allah.
Those tears that fallen in your eyes because of the harsh words that they throw might be a blessings if you keep your sab’r and leave everything to Allah.
Don’t be like those who hurt and wronged you. Don’t be like them in any way. Never change who you are just because of how they treated you.
There may be a lot of insensitive people in this world, those who doesn’t care if they destroyed someone emotionally, but always remember that there are also good people too. Those that will always protect you behind your back and love you without asking anything in return.
Nothing beats having a good heart. Don’t let them change who you really are.
May Allah grant us more sab’r to the things that we’ve been fighting silently. Ameen. 🩷🌷

TYPES OF PEOPLE IN PRAYER
Ibn al Qayyim رحمه الله said, when it comes to prayer, people are of five levels:
●1) The first level is the one who wrongs himself and is negligent. He does not do wudoo’ properly, or pray at the right time or make sure he does all the necessary parts of prayer.
●2) The second is one who observes the outward essentials of prayer, prays on time and does wudoo’, but he has lost the battle against his own self and is overwhelmed with waswa'as (whispers)
●3) The third is one who observes the outward essentials of prayer, prays on time and does wudoo’, and also strives against his own self and against waswaas, but he is preoccupied with his struggle against his enemy (i.e. the Shaytan), lest he steal from his prayer, so he is engaged in salah and jihad at the same time.
●4) The fourth is one who when he stands up to pray, he fulfils all the requirements of the prayer, and his heart is fully focused and alert lest he omit anything, and his concern is to do the prayer properly and perfectly. His heart is deeply immersed in his prayer and worship of his Lord.
●5) The fifth is one who does all of that, but he takes his heart and places it before his Lord, looking at his Lord with his heart and focusing on Him, filled with love and adoration, as if he is actually seeing Him. That waswaas and those thoughts diminish, and the barriers between him and his Lord are lifted. The difference between the prayer of this person and the prayer of anyone else is greater than the difference between heaven and earth. When this person prays, he is preoccupied with his Lord and content with Him.
1.The first type is punishable.
2.The second is accountable.
3.The third is striving so he is not counted as a sinner.
4.The fourth is rewarded and
5.The fifth is drawn close to his Lord because he is one of those for whom prayer is a source of joy.
Whoever finds their joy in Salah in this life, will find their joy in being close to Allah in the Hereafter, and will also find his joy in Allah in this world. Whoever finds his joy in Allah will be content with everything, and whoever does not find his joy in Allah, will be destroyed by his feelings of grief and regret for worldly matters.”

Rather, when reciting the Qur’aan, you should be concerned with: "When will I receive guidance through this Qur’aan?", "When will I benefit from this Qur’aan?", "When will I be from the people of al-Qur’aan (those who recite it and implement it)?"
