The sayings of our beloved Prophet Muhammad (blessings and peace be upon him)
‘A wise person is one who keeps a watch over his bodily desires and passions, and checks himself from that which is harmful and strives for that which will benefit him after death; and a foolish person is one who subordinates himself to his cravings and desires and expects from Allah the fulfilment of his futile desires.’
Al-Tirmidhi Hadith 66 Narrated by AbuYa'la ibn Shaddad ibn Aws
