Dr. Ghazala Qadri addressed the Mutakifaat of Mustafavi Sisters during a powerful and reflective session at Women’s Itikaf 2025. She spoke on the effects of committing sins on one’s life, drawing upon Quranic verses and Ahadees to emphasize the deep spiritual consequences of constant sinning.

She explained that just as metal becomes rusty over time, the heart too develops a layer of rust due to continuous sins. Every sin leaves a black stain on the heart, and if one does not engage in repentance and purification, the heart becomes hardened. She further elaborated that at the final stage of this process, the conscience is lost, and a person no longer realizes their wrongdoings. This state of spiritual darkness distances a person from the mercy of Allah Almighty, making it difficult to return to the path of righteousness.

Dr. Ghazala Qadri urged them to reflect on their actions, seek sincere repentance, and strive for spiritual purification. She emphasized that Itikaf provides a golden opportunity to reconnect with Allah Almighty, cleanse the heart, and revive one’s faith.

The session concluded with an engaging question-and-answer session, where the Mutakifaat had the chance to seek further guidance. Dr. Ghazala Qadri addressed their concerns, providing insightful responses that deepened their understanding of the topic.
