7. The Sweetness Of Iman
The second reward is that one experiences the sweetness of Imân. Rasulullâh Sallallahu alayhi wa sallam has narrated a hadithe qudsi. The muhaditheen have stated that a hadithe qudsi is the statement of Rasulullâh Sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, which he narrates from Allâh Subhanahu wa Ta'la by saying, "Allâh Subhanahu wa Ta'la says."Rasulullâh Sallallahu alayhi wa sallam has narrated in a hadithe qudsi that Allâh Subhanahu wa Ta'la said, "The gaze is a poisonous arrow from among the arrows of Iblis (satan). Whoever protected his heart and gaze from this arrow due to My fear, I will grant him the sweetness of Imân that he will perceive in his heart."
Due to the fact that he sacrificed the sweetness of his sight for Allâh's sake, Allâh Subhanahu wa Ta'la will grant him the sweetness of the heart. Allâmah Ibn Qayyim (Rahimahullâh) says that a person gave his basârat [gaze] and obtained basîrat [insight]. Basârat refers to sight. By sacrificing his sight, Allâh Subhanahu wa Ta'la gave him the reward of the sweetness of Imân in his heart.
