maulana, agla sawal dilli se kiya hai miss naghma siddiqui ne aur unhon ne aapse poocha hai ke What is the relationship of محاسبہ and تزکیہ especially in changing bad habits? pehle محاسبہ aata hai, phir تزکیہ aata hai. pehle transaction aata hai, phir aadmi apni personality ko purify karta hai. dono interconnected hain. lekin pehle ayega محاسبہ, yani transaction. phir ayega تزکیہ, yani apni shakhsiyat ko purify karna.
