How much we say and hear the word "heart integrity"!

It may be called the chest from the heart, and it is said: “The integrity of the chest”, and by that we mean that the heart is sound from malice, envy, deceit and deception, full of love for people and kindness to them, so that a person lives in love and dear, and this is a true meaning that is required of every person, but the integrity of the heart It means other great meanings that are worthy of the great reward resulting from the integrity of the heart, which is what the truth, glory be to Him, said: “A day no money nor children can be used except for the one who comes with a good heart. On him, and on the day that the benefit of money and the child is lost and the feet slip away, and only a healthy heart remains with a person, so he will be his savior and a deliverer from the misery of the hereafter.

- People of interpretation differed in defining a sound and beneficial heart on the day of the meeting.

The people of interpretation differed regarding the definition of a sound and beneficial heart on the day of the meeting, so Ibn Sirin, may God have mercy on him, said: It is to know that God is right, and that the hour is in place, and that God will send those in the graves.

And by that he wants the true faith in God, the Exalted, in above, a faith that is not mixed with doubt, so he believes in it as monotheism, and believes in the absences of what he told of the last day and what is in it, a faith that is beyond doubt.

It is known that such faith is one that bears the fruit of the righteous deed commanded by the Truth, may He be glorified, and avoiding what is forbidden, avoiding compliance and obedience, out of fear of God and a desire for what God Almighty has, because these matters are among the requirements of faith and the integrity of the heart.

Some of them said: A healthy heart is the one who is spared polytheism, excitement, hatred, envy, scarcity, arrogance, love of the world and rulership ... So he is safe from every scourge that keeps him away from God, and he is safe from every suspicion that contradicts his report, and from every desire that opposes his command, and he is safe from every will that competes with his desire in His servant, granting peace to everyone who cuts him off from God, for this healthy heart is in an accelerated paradise in this world, in paradise in the isthmus, and in paradise on the day of return.

Some of them shortened these meanings by saying: A healthy heart is the one who embraced Islam and embraced Islam.

And there is no one but he would like to be carrying this beneficial heart in this world with safety for people and people, and in the Hereafter on the day of the presentation to the Lord of people, and everyone who loved him may claim him, but that does not prove to anyone until his signs are seen in him, which is what some commentators have stated by saying A healthy heart has three signs, the first of which is that it does not harm anyone, the second is that it does not harm anyone, and the third: if it feigns a favor to someone who is not expected to be rewarded, and if it does not harm anyone, then it came with piety, and if it does not harm anyone, He came with loyalty, and if he did not expect reward by artificiality, then he came with sincerity, and this is what is beneficial when meeting his Lord Almighty.

And that is what the Prophet, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him and his family, urged his nation to abandon disagreement, quarrels, misfortunes, and envy against one of the servants of God Almighty, so that deeds are presented to God Almighty and he accepts them, otherwise they will respond to those whose heart is not sound, or delay until they straighten out, and how much we have taught him, peace and blessings be upon him That we pray to God Almighty in our prostration in His hands, glory be to Him, to fix our hearts to obedience and integrity, all so that we strive to make our hearts sound, so that it will be beneficial to us on the day of the meeting.

If a person knows the great reward that the Compassionate, the Most Merciful has prepared for the one who has a sound heart, then he does not strive for the safety of his heart, clearing him of his doubts and his excesses, and his sincerity to his Lord and the sincerity of his monotheism

For he would have harmed himself, if he did not seek to benefit it, for the truth, glory be to Him, has limited the benefit of the servant when he meets the safety of his heart only, so that man will be responsible for his fate on that memorable day.

He has been excused by the truth, glory be to Him, and if he does not do so, only Himself will blame us, and no one will perish against God but perish.

And whoever does not surrender his heart to God Almighty, and Muslims have not spared his tongue, his hand, and the medicine of his heart.

He comes before his Lord with a sick heart, and there he realizes his wrongdoing on himself and his wrongdoing, but there is no time left.

We ask God who is a sound heart in this world, and the bliss that resides in the heels, for he is the one who turns the hearts and establishes them or distracts them.
