A young woman says that she has been practicing (the religion) for about a year and she thanks Allah for that.
But she says :
my heart is in a constant state of change and alteration, but sometimes I notice strength in my Eemaan (faith) and a strong concern for the prayer with humility and a good love.
And sometimes this strength is diminished and I noticed hardness in my heart. I do not remain in a single state, to the extent that I have started to fear for a practice of the religion. And I fear I may return to my old ways.
And I noticed that my Eemaan has to started to gradually decreased. O noble shaikh direct me to something that can strengthen my Eemaan and suplicate for me to be guided.

The answer from the shaykh
Indeed, a person is only human and his state changes in accordance to what is in his heart is exposed to; what his eyes look at and his ears listen to.
Indeed, a person is only human and his state changes in accordance to what is in his heart is exposed to; what his eyes look at and his ears listen to.
However, it is incumbent upon the believer to always beseeching Allah the most high for guidance and to act on the means to that will make his Eemaan firm, such as constantly paying attention to the fact that Allah the mighty and majestic is ever watching over you;
remember him a lot with the heart tongue, limbs, recitation of the Quran with reflection and pondering over it;
for indeed, recitation of the Quran this manner softens the heart and increases the Eemaan; and also by often mixing with the good and righteous people- those who will aid a person when he becomes a weak and reminds him when he forgets.
Most importantly is that one constantly asks Allah the most high for steadfastness, such as saying âO Allah! Turner of the hearts keep my heart firm upon your religion.
You will then find a good in this, if Allah the most high wills; however be negligent nor lose hope of Allahâs mercy.
One should not look back to what had passed of (ones) disobedience to Allah the (mighty and majestic) but he should look forward to the obedience, the good and the great reward that lies ahead for the one who obeys Allah.
