Why Doesn’t My Heart Feel Heavy After a Sin?

Assalamu alaikum, I wanted to share something that’s been on my mind. Lately, I’ve noticed that after committing a sin, I don’t feel that guilt or sadness in my heart like I used to. It’s like my heart has become a bit numb. I know as Muslims we should turn to Allah in repentance, but what can I actually do to bring back that softness and regret? Any advice?

That numbness is scary. Don't let shaytan make you comfortable. Do a small good deed immediately after sinning, like giving sadaqah in secret.

Bro, your heart is a muscle – it strengthens with the right exercises. Try tahajjud and less screen time before bed.

Remember the grave and the Day of Judgment. When I fear Allah’s punishment, my heart softens. Also, keep righteous company – it helps a lot.
