Shaikh ’Uthaimeen, may Allaah have mercy on him, said, “A person must prepare to meet Allaah عزوجل and know how he will meet Allaah—will he do so in a condition that pleases Him عزوجل or the opposite?
So examine yourself and know what state you are in.”

Ibn al-Qayyim, may Allaah have mercy on him, said, “Seek out your heart in three places: when listening to the Quraan, in the gatherings of [Allaah’s] remembrance, and when [alone] in privacy, and if you do not find it in these places, then ask Allaah to grant you a heart – for verily, you do not have one.”
Fawaaidul-Fawaaid, p. 479.
