Ibn Qayyim makes takfeer on grave worshippers, there is no excuse for ignorance for them - when we ask them for hujjah; ‘if a Mushrik can be Muslim,’ they cannot provide it Narrated from Anas (RA) that a man said:
“O Messenger of Allah, where is my father?” He said: “In Hell.” When he turned away he called him back and said: “My father and your father are in Hell.” [Sahih Muslim (Vol. 1, pg. 191) No. 203]
how can you refute this hadith? - the prophets father didn’t hear the message of Islam and died worshipping false deities. - so a MUSHRIK cannot be a MUSLIM, shirk negates Islam. He also says regarding some of the tasawwuf groups which fall into Shirk: “Some of them said: We are taking repentance from people.
I said: What are you taking repentance from? They said: Knock over, thievery etc. I said: Their state before you take their repentance is better than their state after you took their repentance. Without doubt they are Fasiq who believe that the state they are in is Haraam. They ask forgiveness of Allah, they repent to Him or they incline to. But with taking repentance from them, you made them deviated Mushrik and individuals who went out of the fold of Islam.” [Fatawa, (11/472)] -

Why are the Muslims weak today?
Shaikh Ul Islaam Ahmad Ibn Taymeeyah 728AH (May Allah have mercy on him) said:
وإذا كان في المسلمين ضعفوكان عدوهم مستظهرًا عليهم كان ذلك بسبب ذنوبهم وخطاياهم إما لتفريطهم في أداء الواجبات باطنًا وظاهرًا
“If the Muslims are weak and their enemies have gained an upper hand against them, then this is a result of their sins whether it is by their neglectfulness in establishing obligatory matters both inwardly (having the correct belief) and/or outwardly (like prayer, fasting, zakah, etc).”

“May Allaah make pleasant (i.e. illuminate, brighten) the man who heard a hadeeth from us, memorised it and then conveyed it (to others) just as he heard it, for perhaps one who carries fiqh (knowledge, understanding) is not one who understands it, and perhaps he carries it to one who has greater understanding than him.”

In need of Taqwaa, look at how our Salaf were. May Allah give us all this type of Taqwaa. Allahumma Aameen:
Ibn Abee Dunyaa mentioned an Athar with a chain from Al-Hassan where he narrated:
I have never looked with these eyes nor spoke with this tongue, nor held with these hands nor risen upon these feet, until i looked to see if it was in obedience to Allah or in disobedience to Him, and if it was in obedience, I would proceed and if it was in disobedience (to Him) I would not proceed."

❝Sadness weakens the heart, cripples determination and harms ones willpower. There isn't anything dearer to shaytan than the sadness of the believer.❞ [From his book, 'Tareequl Hijratayn']
Thus rejoice with your Islam, be happy with the Qur'an, imitate prophetic optimism and show good hopes in the planning of Allaah ﷻ.

The Root meaning of the word God
The earliest written form of the Germanic word God (always, in this usage, capitalized) comes from the 6th century Christian Codex Argenteus. The English word itself is derived from the Proto-Germanic * ǥuđan. Most linguists[who?] agree that the reconstructed Proto-Indo-European form * ǵhu-tó-m was based on the root * ǵhau(ə)-, which meant either "to call" or "to invoke". The Germanic words for God were originally neuter—applying to both genders—but during the process of the Christianization of the Germanic peoples from their indigenous Germanic paganism, the word became a masculine syntactic form.

Abu Nu’aim reported: Maymun ibn Mihran said,
“Whoever commits evil in secret, then let him repent in secret. Whoever commits evil in public, then let him repent in public. Verily, Allaah will forgive him and He will not condemn him, but people will condemn him and they will not forgive him.”

Acting upon knowledge:
Imaam Ahmad placed over 40,000 hadeeths in his book, because he acted upon them all, saying: “I have not left a single hadeeth but that I acted upon it.” When he read that the Prophet ﷺ was cupped and that he gave the cupper 1 Deenaar; he said: “I went and had cupping done and gave the cupper a Dinar.” A Dinar is 4.25 grams of gold.

The Doors to Sin Are Opened by Thoughts of the Mind 🚪
From the famous book, 'ad-daa wad-dawaa' of Ibn al-Qayyim (raḥimahullāh)
Know that reflective thoughts are not themselves harmful; rather what becomes harmful are constant (obsessive) ponderings. A thought about something is like a passer-by, if you do not call him, he will pass you by and go upon his way. However, if you call him, he will dupe and deceive you by his speech, and this is the easiest thing to do for the nafs that is filled with falsehood. However, it is the most difficult thing to bear for the nafs that is contended.
Allāh has placed in all of mankind two kinds of nafs:
1-Nafs Amaarah (the soul that commands evil)
2- Nafs Mutma’innah (the soul that is content).
They always oppose each other, so what is sweet for one is bitter for the other. There is nothing more difficult for the soul that commands evil than to go against its desires by working for Allāh’s pleasure, however, this is the most beneficial thing for it. Likewise, there is nothing more difficult for the soul that is content than to work for other than the pleasure of Allāh.
Every person has both a Nafs Mutma’innah and a Nafs Amaarah. Additionally, there is an angel on the right side (of every person) and it works in conjunction with the Nafs Mutma’innah.
Likewise, on the left side (of every person), there is a Shayṭān that works in conjunction with the Nafs Amaarah, and there is a constant, ongoing struggle between the two and it does not cease until this person’s appointed time in this life ceases.
Falsehood always sides with the Shayṭān and the Nafs Amaarah, whereas the truth always sides with the angels and the Nafs Mutma’innah, and the victor alternates.
However, victory comes with patience and whoever remains patient and has taqwá (fear and consciousness) of Allāh, then he will be granted the upperhand in this life and in the next. This is the law of Allāh that never changes.
