Hazrat Haatim Asamm رحمه الله has said that a person has three desires (i.e. such desires which perpetually make demands);
- The desire to eat. Repose trust in Allah Ta’ala جل جلاله in this regard; i.e. be careful what you eat and how you eat.
- The desire to speak; speak the truth and what is beneficial – abstain from falsehood and futility.
- The desire to look; cast looks of ibrah- derive lessons and admonition from whatever you look at.
