Ibn Qayyim رحمه الله said: "Your soul is just like your enemy, once it finds you serious, it obeys you. If it finds weakness from you, it will take you as a prisoner." ● {بدائع الفوائد ٣/١٢٠٢} This shows the importance of discipline and staying away from everything and anything that harms us whether in worldly or religious matters
Ibn Al-Qayyim رحمه الله said: "Disobeying the desires puts a servant in position that if he makes and oath by Allah in supplication (to receive anything) Allah will fulfil it. So he excutes for him many folds more than the desires that he abandoned." ● {ﺭﻭﺿﺔ ﺍﻟﻤﺤﺒﻴﻦ ١/٤٨٤}
