How can one remove the misconception regarding the failure to perceive the impact of sins and transgressions on life events, especially after committing to acts of worship for a long period without feeling this effect, which raises questions about one's previous understanding of their religion and the influence of sins on their life?

Your acts of obedience are accepted—God willing—as long as you have drawn closer to Him through them, seeking His reward and His Countenance, without ostentation or desire for reputation. Sins are a major cause for the disappearance of blessings and the onset of misfortunes, and they afflict the servant with calamities and tribulations. God may punish a servant for persisting in sin by sealing their heart, or by granting them respite and drawing them on in their transgression, until He seizes them with a painful grip.
