v  Due to the evil of sins, one is deprived of the knowledge of Deen.

v  One’s sustenance decreases i.e. the Barakah of Rizq goes away. Despite one’s sustenance appearing to be plentiful, very little benefit is derived from it. It will be spent away in sickness, anxieties, and wastage.

v  The sinner experiences a kind of terror from Allah Ta’ala.

v  One gets a feeling of fear for people. In particular, one fears the company of the pious even more and will be deprived of the blessings of the company of the illustrious servants of Allah Ta’ala.

v  The sinner’s heart becomes darkened. Due to the evil of sins, a person becomes involved in innovations, deviation and ignorance that will eventually destroy him.

v  Due to sins weakness of the heart occursi.e. the courage to do virtuous acts keeps on diminishing until it fades away completely. Since the body is dependent on the heart, it too becomes weak.

v  After some days of sinning, the evil of sins leaves one’s heart, then shame and modesty is also lost. Thus sins are committed openly and one is distanced from the mercy and forgiveness of Allah Ta’ala.

v  Every sin is the inheritance of some of the enemies of Allah Ta’ala. It is as though this person becomes the inheritor of those cursed nation who originated that sin. In the Hadith it is mentioned that he who imitates a nation will be reckoned amongst them. Therefore do not delay in repenting.

v  A sinner loses status and becomes worthless in the sight of Allah Ta’ala. Thus the creation also has no respect for him. Even though the people might apparently honour him because of their greed (i.e. they want something from him) or out of fear for him, no one will have true respect for him. Allah Ta’ala says “He who Allah Ta’ala disgraces, there shall be none to honour him”.
