Advice for the one who sees the delay of his guidance

The Shaykh:
May Allah greet you and bless you.

The questioner:
This questioner says: I have a friend who is very prone to procrastination. Months pass by and he says, "Until now, Allah has not willed to guide me." I am advising him to the straight path, and he makes many mistakes and stumbles. What do you advise him?

The Shaykh:
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds. May Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, and upon his family and all his Companions. We advise this person to fear Allah and be afraid of Allah. This is a whispering of Satan, for Allah, Glorified and Exalted is He, has commanded taqwa (mindfulness of Allah) and commanded righteous deeds, and He has urged hastening. "Hasten to a forgiveness from your Lord." . He must repent to Allah from this speech. Guidance is in the hand of Allah. As for you, it is upon you to work. Success and guidance are in the hand of Allah. But it is upon you to work. And you are able to work. You have the capacity to work. So hasten to acceptance and repentance. And leave these whispers or this false speech. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you
