Shaikh Qari Amir Hasan (Allah have mercy on him) said,

Nowadays we do not listen to and obey anyone. Neither to our father nor mother nor our spiritual mentor.

We only listen to and obey our nafs who is our biggest enemy.

Shaikh Haji Imdadullah muhajir Makki (Allah have mercy on him) used to say,

‘The thing I fear the most is my nafs.’
