Everyone has 1 of 3 kinds of hearts:
1) The Dead Heart:
- One who denies Allah swt
- One who believes in Allah swt but does not believe in religion
- One who believes in multiple gods
- One who says he believes verbally but does not believe internally
- A mu’min who has stopped saving himself/herself from sin
Signs of a Dead heart:
- No interest in Akhirah or Allah swt, A slave to his/her desires, Hedonistic
- No ghayra
- Finds it very difficult to do good deeds. Cannot connect to Allah swt (because the connector (the heart) is dead).
Note: In Islam an atheist and an agnostic are the same because a “no” and “don’t know” are both taken as “no”. In other words an atheist says there is no god (nauzubillah) and an agnostic says he doesn’t know if there is a god. They are both considered the same – a denier of Allah swt.
2. Sick/Diseased Heart:
Signs:
- One becomes overcome by lust
- Sometimes he/she is so engulfed in ibaadaat and other times they do not even care about the faraaidh or waajibaat
3. Qalbun Saleem
Signs:
- All ones love/passion/hate is for Allah swt
- He/She gives only for the pleasure of Allah swt
- One who never misses an opportunity to do worship
