Ibn al-Qayyim رحمه الله listed a few consequences of sinning/disobeying Allāh

• Lack of success 

• Corrupt views 

• Blindness from truth

• Corruption of the heart

• Failing to remember Allāh 

• Wasting of time

• Avoidance and hate by the creation

• Separation between the servant and his Lord 

• Supplication not being answered

• Hardness of the heart 

• Decaying of blessing in provision and age

• Prevention from attaining knowledge

• Humiliation

• Insults from the enemies 

• Constriction of the chest

• Affliction with evil friendship, those who corrupt the heart and make one waste the time 

• Prolonging of sadness and grief

• Miserable life 

• and Disappointment

All this results from sinning and and neglecting to remember Allāh, just as crops are grown by being watered and are consumed by fire.
