A man came to Al-Hasan Al-Basri and said:
“I heard you say that if you commit sins, then Allāh prevents you from things. I do all the sins that you can think of and don’t do many good deeds. I have a beautiful wife and beautiful kids and a lot of money and land and am successful. Allāh did not prevent me from anything. How is it that you say that because of sins Allāh prevents you?”
He said:
.“Do you pray qiyām’l-layl? Do you enjoy your du’ā’? Do you enjoy your Aalāh? That is enough prevention that He prevented you from communicating with Him.” —
