Sins remove Khushoo from the hearts

Qaas said to Muhammad Ibn Waasi:

"Why is it that (nowadays) I see that the hearts are not Khaashi (being humbly submissive to Allaah); nor do I see the eyes shedding tears or the skins shivering (out of the fear of Allaah)?"

Muhammad Ibn Waasi replied:

"O slave of Allaah! Why is it that (nowadays) I see that (your) people are (more) into sins than those before you?! Verily! When the remembrance (of Allaah) leaves the heart, such things overtake the heart." 

[Hilyatul Awliyaa' (2/351)]

: صلى الله عليه وسلم The Messenger said

"The very first thing to be raised from this Ummah is Khushoo (fear of Allaah), until you will not find a single person in (the Masjid) with Khushoo`."

[Saheeh al-Jaami (2569, 2576) "Saheeh" by Shaikh al-Albaanee]
