How to Have a Happy and Healthy Physical Heart

The heart pumps life. It keeps us moving, breathing and feeling. It maintains the body and mind that Allah subḥānahu wa ta'āla (glorified and exalted be He) has entrusted to us, and fuels our muscles so that we may worship Him. It is important to maintain the spiritual heart, but are we making sure our physical heart is healthy?

Although working on the spiritual heart is the most essential, physical health of the heart is equally important – a physically unhealthy heart will stop us from worshiping Allah subḥānahu wa ta'āla (glorified and exalted be He) in best way possible. So, it is important for us to dedicate time towards looking after our hearts and working towards optimal health.

Islam is all about balance. We should strive for halal earnings so we can provide for ourselves and our families, but we should also endeavor to purify our wealth through charity and use our earnings to please Allah subḥānahu wa ta'āla (glorified and exalted be He).

We should enjoy the gifts Allah subḥānahu wa ta'āla (glorified and exalted be He) has given us, but we should also use those gifts to help others.
