LISTED BELOW ARE WAYS TO INCREASE OUR IMAAN:
=========================================================
Recite and ponder on the meanings of the Quran. Tranquility then descends and our hearts become soft. To get optimum
benefit, remind yourself that Allah is speaking to you. People are
described in different categories in the Quran; think of which
one you find yourself in.
Realize the greatness of Allah. Everything is under His control. There are signs in everything we see that points us to His greatness.
Everything happens according to His permission. Allah keeps track and
looks after everything, even a black ant on a black rock on a black moonless
night.
Make an effort to gain knowledge, for at least the basic things in daily life e.g. how to make wudu properly. Know the meanings behind
Allah's names and attributes. People who have taqwa are those who have
knowledge.
Attend gatherings where Allah is remembered. In such gatherings we are surrounded by angels.
We have to increase our good deeds. One good deed leads to another good
deed. Allah will make the way easy for someone who gives charity and
also make it easy for him or her to do good deeds. Good deeds must be
done
continuously, not in spurts.
We must fear the miserable end to our lives; the remembrance of death is the destroyer of pleasures.
Remember the different levels of akhirah, for instance when we are put in our graves, when we are judged, whether we will be in paradise or
hell.
Make dua, realize that we need Allah. Be humble. Don't covet material things in this life.
Our love for Subhana Wa Ta'Ala must be shown in actions. We must hope Allah will accept our prayers, and be in constant fear that we do
wrong. At night before going to sleep, we must think about what good we
did during that day.
Realize the effects of sins and disobedience- one's imaan is increased with good deeds and our imaan is decreased by bad deeds. Everything
that happens is because Allah wanted it. When calamity befalls us-
it is also from Allah. It is a direct result of our disobedience to
Allah
