A student once asked a scholar, "At times devil puts such uncontrollable bad thoughts in my mind about Allah (swt) that due to embarrassment & guilt I wish to be cut into pieces and burnt.
The scholar asked, " When you walk on a road and watch different types of cars pass by you. Which of them do you watch for a longer duration and which ones do you ignore ?"
The student replied, "I observe the beautiful clean cars and ignore the dirty dented ones."
The scholar smiled, "Do the same with thoughts"
