Eminent Sahabi (Noble Companion of Beloved Prophet <\/strong><\/em>\ufdfa<\/strong>), Hazrat Abdullah ibne Mas\u2019ood (RA) said:<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Assess your heart in three occasions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One: When you listen to the Qur’an<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Two: At the Majlis (gathering) of Allah\u2019s Zikr, i.e. while listening to Deeni lectures\/bayan, attending Taleem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Three: While engaged in Allah\u2019s Zikr in solitude<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If in case you do not find your heart present (i.e. if in none your mind gets set and not attracted towards) in three situations mentioned, do pray to Allah Taala that He may, by His Mercy, provide at least one heart to you; because, you have no heart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Note:<\/em><\/strong> If one doesn\u2019t find any attraction in the mentioned situations, it doesn\u2019t mean that one has no Iman<\/em> or s\/he should stop doing the good deeds mentioned. Rather, often \u2018no attraction\u2019 in Ibadat<\/em> is a test for the servant of Allah (this has been clarified by Pious Scholars while discussing about taste\/attraction in Ibadat; remember, taste is not the objective of Ibadat. See the article: No Taste in Worship: Taste vs Test in this site)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The saying of Hazrat Abdullah ibne Mas\u2019ood (RA) provides an easy means to look into the condition of one\u2019s Iman by oneself; it is a scale to simply assess oneself \u2013 how his Iman is, because, the mentioned occasions (recitation of the Quran, listening to Allah Taala\u2019s Words and getting engaged in Allah Taala\u2019s remembrance in solitude) are such that most believers\u2019 hearts find a general appeal to those. Therefore if someone (a believer) is deprived of this minimal appeal, he is asked to make dua to Allah Taala and request at least \u2018one heart\u2019.<\/p>\n
