A man asked the Noble Prophet, Sallallahu alaihi Wasallam:--
"O MESSENGER OF ALLAH! WHAT IS IMAAN?" He replied,
"WHEN YOUR GOOD DEEDS PLEASE YOU AND YOUR EVIL
DEEDS GRIEVE YOU, THEN YOU ARE A BELIEVER."
The man asked, "O MESSENGER OF ALLAH, THEN WHAT IS SIN?"
Nabiyy, Sallallahu alaihi Wasallam, replied:- "WHEN SOMETHING
CAUSES A DOUBT IN YOUR HEART, LEAVE IT OUT." [Musnad Ahmad, No. 22166].
The expression of joy and sorrow over our good and bad actions respectively are signs of faith (Imaan). So, let us allow our outward expression of feelings be the signal of existence of Imaan within us..... and expressing sorrow over sin refers to feeling (very) guilty and sincerely repenting.
This cannot be undone and I am sure it will be greatly appreciated.
