Question:
Salam to you,
May you always be in the blessings of Allah and in the constant company of our beloved Prophet Muhammad s.a.w.
I am 21 this year and I thank Allah for giving me the opportunity to take bayyah with Mawlana Shaykh Kabbani a few months back. However, I’ve only got serious in istiqamah in my awrad recently i.e. since Syawal. My concern is, despite doing my awrad I am still prone to sins. (1) What does this mean? (2) What should I do? (3) Will the act of doing sins affect my awrad?
May Allah bless us with the best of HIS blessings.
Answer:
Wa`alaykumussalam,
No one is immune from sin. However your worship and prayer should be a shield for you from sin. If you are faced with a situation to fall into sin, remember your Shaykh and mention his name for spiritual support. Always be in the company of the pious.
