Establishing and enhancing our faith (Iman) is of paramount importance in this regard. Having strong faith in Allah is the primary need of every Muslim, to be prioritized over everything else. It is what gives us direction in our quest to attain the ultimate success in the Dunya and Akhirah. Having a true understanding of Tawheed (oneness of Allah) is a critical prerequisite of faith. One must also display a full commitment to performing all obligatory (Fardh) acts of worship without fail. A Muslim must also abstain from all that Allah has forbidden.<br><br>To further invigorate our Iman, we ought to focus on increasing the amount of time we spend worshipping Allah (Ibadah). This can be accomplished by performing voluntary (Nafl) prayers in abundance, particularly the night prayer (Tahajjud: a time when Allah descends on the lowest heaven to respond to our sincere Duas). Moreover, we ought to read the Quran frequently, contemplate its meanings, observe voluntary fasts regularly, and so on. Also, we should look to perform as many good deeds as possible. Examples include giving charity, being kind and caring to our parents, etc. A Muslim who is always occupied with pleasing Allah will thus have stronger Iman. He will find it easier to shun his evil desires and the whispers of Satan.
