Dear Islamic brothers! Fear Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ and repent instantly. In this world, we use our body parts to commit immodest acts without hesitation and even those acts that cause the displeasure of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ. If we don’t repent today, the same body parts may testify against us in the court of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ on the Day of Judgement and will lead us towards hell. Therefore, repent sincerely today for all your sins and make a firm intention to refrain from all immodest acts in the future. Also try to become modest and decent. I will now inform you of some methods that will help you to become modest and decent.

Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ is seeing

Dear Islamic brothers! Indeed we feel a deep sense of shame if someone we know sees us committing a sin whilst we are alone. We then become reluctant to even meet him. Similarly, If we keep this in mind at all times that ‘Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ is seeing us’, we will become modest and decent along with refraining from sinful activities.

Madani suggestion for placing Qufl-e-Madinah (Madani guard) of the eyes

Hujjat-ul-Islam, Sayyiduna Imam Muhammad Ghazali رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه has stated in Ihya-ul-‘Uloom that a person asked Sayyiduna Junayd Baghdadi رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه: What can help me to keep my gaze lowered? He responded: Keep this in mind that Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ is already seeing you before you look at anything.

Excellence of modesty and warnings against immodest acts

To become modest and decent, continue reading or listening to the excellences of modesty and warnings against immodest acts and ponder over them. Read these out to others as well to make up their minds to become modest. In this way, we will be able to retain these excellences and warnings, and we will become modest and decent by refraining from immodest and evil deeds, اِنْ شَــآءَالـلّٰـه عَزَّوَجَلَّ.
