Ibn Taymiyyah It’s not allowed for anyone to lose hope in Allaah’s Mercy, even if his sins are very great. [Majmoo’ al-Fatawa (v.16, p.19)]
A man said to al-Hasan al-Basri Rahmatullahi Alayhi : “O Abu Sa’eed, I am complaining to you of the hardness of my heart." He said: “Soften it with dhikr. The more forgetful the heart is, the harder it becomes, but if a person remembers Allah , the hardness softens as copper melts in the fire. Nothing can soften the hardness of the heart like the remembrance of Allah , may He be glorified and exalted. Dhikr is healing and medicine for the heart. Forgetfulness is a disease, the cure for which is remembrance of Allah ." ●[Al-Wabil as-Sayyib, Ibn al-Jawzi, 142]
This worldly life only impresses those with no intellect, similar to how vain dreams please the sleeper; imaginary games are perceived as reality by a child, whereas a sensible person cannot be deceived by such delusion.

“The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said:
‘The call of Dhoo’l-Noon [Yoonus/Jonah], which he recited when he was in the belly of the fish, ‘La ilaaha illa anta subhaanaka innee kuntu min al-zaalimeen. There is no Muslim who recites this in any situation, but Allaah will respond to him.”
(Reported by al-Tirmidhi, 3427, and classed as saheeh in Saheeh al-Jaami’, 3383).

Ibn al-Qayyim said:
"If you knew the true value of yourself, you would never allow yourself to be humiliated by committing sins.
When Iblīs refused to bow to your father 'Adam, he refused to bow to you, so why have you become his friend and left us?
If there was any love in your heart, its effect would appear on your body."

The Rulings of Photography:
Question: What is the ruling on taking photographs, when they are for necessity and when they are for adornment?
Answer: Pictures of living (humans and animals) are unlawful except for necessity. Examples of necessity include identity photos, passport photos, or photos of criminals for the purpose of identification and then arrest when they commit a crime or attempt to flee.

❗REASON FOR LOSS OF BARAKAH FROM TIME❗
Shaikh Muhammad ibn Saalih al-Uthaymeen (رحمه الله ) warned:
If you see your time pass and your life go, and you have not produced anything worthwhile or beneficial and you do not find any blessing in your time then be wary that the Statement of Allah has overcome you:
"And obey not him whose heart we have made heedless of our Remembrance one who follows his own lust and whose affair (deeds) has been lost. " (Al-Kahf:28 (1).
The Shaykh (رحمه الله) also Said:
And in this ayah is an indication to the important of ( having) presence of heart when performing dhikr of Allah. And that the person who remembers Allah with ( only) his tongue and not his heart, (then) the barakah ( blessing) is removed from his actions and his time to the extent that his deeds became lost.

Imam Ahmad Rahimahullah said: “If you remain silent and I remain silent when will an ignorant person know the authentic from the unauthentic?!”

The Ayaat of As-Sakeenah ( Tranquility )
The saying of Allaah Ta’ala:
<< إِذْ جَعَلَ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا فِي قُلُوبِهِمُ الْحَمِيَّةَ حَمِيَّةَ الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ سَكِينَتَهُ عَلَى رَسُولِهِ وَعَلَى الْمُؤْمِنِينَ >>
<< When those who disbelieved had put into their hearts chauvinism – the chauvinism of the time of ignorance. But Allah sent down His tranquility upon His Messenger and upon the believers >>[al-Fath: 26]
Shaykh ul-Islaam Ibn Taymeeyah (d.728 A.H.) -Rahimullaah- used to read the Ayaat ofas-Sakeenah (Tranquility) if matters became intense for him.
And I heard him talk about a great incident which occurred when he was sick, the general intellect is too deficient to comprehend how evil souls emerged and waged war against him in his state of weakness.
Shaykh ul-Islaam Ibn Taymeeyah (d.728 A.H.) -Rahimullaah- said :
When this matter became intense, I said to my relatives and those around me: ‘Read the Ayaat of as-Sakeenah (Tranquility).
Then I would be free from this condition, and I would sit up as if a transformation had taken place and there was nothing wrong with me.’
Ibn Qayyim aj-Jawzeeyah (d.751 A.H.) -Rahimullaah- said:
I also tried this, and I read these Ayaat of as-Sakeenah (Tranquility) when the heart becomes agitated due to what affects it and I witnessed the amazing effects of theseAyaat on the tranquility of the heart and its peacefulness.’
