The real meaning ( haqiqa) of repentance ( tawba) is respect for the commandment of the Lord of Truth under all circumstances. You must always go to hear sermons because the heart turns blind when it is absent from sermons. The tongue is the page boy ( ghulam) of the heart, and its subordinate. He who practices remembrance of Allah with his heart is the true practitioner of remembrance ( dhakir), while anyone who does not remember Him with his heart is no dhakir. Set Him before your eyes so that you seem to see Him, for even if you do not see Him, surely He does see you. Be attentive to your Lord in your private moments and when you are in public situations. Your life would not be comfortable until you applied it. If one of you had a disease, and some physician prescribed a remedy for it. O my people! Take instruction from your Prophet, and clear the rust from your hearts through the treatment he has prescribed for you.
He loses his sense of shame before His Lord. He loses his ability to discriminate in the process of acquisition. It will turn black because of his love for this world and involvement in it without pious restraint ( wara'), because when a person's heart is controlled by the love of this world, he loses his pious restraint and accumulates worldly things both lawful ( halal) and unlawful ( haram). It will turn black because of its remoteness from the light. The heart does get rusty, and unless its owner takes the corrective measures described by the Prophet s.a.w, it will turn completely black. These hearts are getting very rusty and the polish they need is the recitation of the Qur'an, the remembrance of death, and attendance at sessions of remembrance ( dhikr).
