Four Types of Hearts ~ Pondering Which is Ours?
Hadith: Abu Sa’id reported:
The Messenger of Allah(peace and blessings be upon him) said:
There are four kinds of hearts:
💖a polished heart as shiny as a radiant lamp,
🖤a sealed heart with a knot tied around it,
❤️🩹a heart that is turned upside down, and
💟a heart that is wrapped.
As for the polished heart, it is the heart of the believer and its lamp is the light of faith.
The sealed heart is the heart of the unbeliever.
The heart that is turned upside down is the heart of a pure hypocrite, for he had knowledge but he denied it.
As for the heart that is wrapped, it is the heart that contains both faith and hypocrisy. The parable of faith in this heart is the parable of the herb that is sustained by pure water, and the parable of the hypocrisy in it is the parable of an ulcer that thrives upon puss and blood; whichever of the two is greater will dominate.
[Musnad Aḥmad 11129]

And remind, for indeed, the reminder benefits the believers. [Al-Qur’an 51:55]
Our beloved Prophet(peace be upon him) said,
“One who guides to something good has a reward similar to that of its doer.” [Sahih Muslim 4665]
