Just as you would seek treatment for a physical illness, the soul suffers diseases of its own — anger (ghadab), showing off (riya), pride and arrogance (takabbur), envy (hasad), ingratitude, love of fame (hubb al-jah) and love of wealth (hubb al-mal).
Spiritual health differs in one crucial respect. The consequences of a physical illness end at death; the consequences of a spiritual one begin there.
