What is the remedy for the heart's attachment to sin?
To overcome attachment to sin, one must remember the greatness of Allah and His awareness of His servant, and recall the proximity and suddenness of death, and that the pleasure of sin vanishes while its consequences remain. One should also remember standing before Allah and being questioned about everything, and be certain of Allah's promise and warning. Furthermore, it is necessary to abandon places and people who participate in disobedience, and benefit from books that discuss the effects of sins, such as "Al-Daa' wal-Dawaa'" (The Disease and the Cure) by Ibn Al-Qayyim.
