The Difference Between Finding a Deed Heavy and Disliking It, and Its Effect on the Nullification of the Deed

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, if a person performs a righteous deed while finding it heavy, such as prayer or fasting, is his deed nullified? And is there a difference between finding a deed heavy and disliking it?

Answer:
Yes, there is a difference. Finding something heavy is not the same as disliking it. Disliking it means the soul hates that thing and does not love it; dislike is the opposite of love. As for finding something heavy, a person may love the thing, but it feels heavy to him despite his love for it. This is the ruling of the soul and human nature, because it is difficult for him. It is difficult for him. So there is a difference between the soul finding something heavy and disliking the ruling. Yes.
