The answer

The solution lies in a sincere determination to act, for Satan wants to draw you into disobedience so you become accustomed to it. If you fall into sin, hasten to sincere repentance and do not surrender to Satan's cunning. Sense the danger of sins and the fear of an evil end, and remember that death may come suddenly. Adhere to remembrance (dhikr), supplication (du'a), and seeking forgiveness (istighfar). If you commit a sin, follow it with extra good deeds such as recitation of the Quran, prayer, and fasting. Accompany the righteous and do not abandon their company.
