Calling One’s Soul to Account, a lecture by Shaykh Abu Iyaad Amjad Rafiq (hafidhahullāh)

  • Going through a khuṭbah of Shaykh Ṣāliḥ al-Fawzān (hafidhahullāh) on muḥāsabat an-nafs, calling oneself to account
  • Allāh created man, tested him, and made him aware of the paths of good and evil (al-Insān 76:2–3)
  • The soul was inspired with its wickedness and its piety (ash-Shams 91:8); success lies in purifying it
  • Obedience purifies and raises the soul, while sins soil it like one who rolls in the dust
  • The ḥadīth that every person goes out in the morning selling his soul, either freeing it or destroying it
