Discipline Quote by Mufti Ismail Menk
“Satan beautifies sin for us making it seem so juicy & worthwhile. Whether adultery, gambling, gossip, backbiting, intoxicants, lies, immodest dress, clandestine earnings or any other sin, without self control & discipline coupled with the constant consciousness that Satan is our enemy out to get us & that the Almighty is All Watchful & unto Him is our ultimate return, we would easily fall into some of these traps.”
