Shaykh Uthaymeen (rahimahullaah) warned: If you see your time pass by and your life go, and you have not produced anything worthwhile or beneficial and you do not find any blessing in your time then be wary that the statement of Allah has overcome you: “And obey not him whose heart We have made heedless of Our Remembrance, one who follows his own lusts and whose affair (deeds) has been lost.” [Al-Kahf: 28] (1) And in this ayah is an indication to the importance of (having) presence of heart when performing dhikr of Allah. And that the person who remembers Allah with (only) his tongue and not his heart, (then) the barakah (blessing) is removed from his actions and his time to the extent that his deeds become lost. Shaykh Uthaymeen ‘s Tafseer of Soorah Al-Kahf Page 62
