Anfsi Nafsiyati - Human Instincts - Dr Israr Ahmad

Human beings possess both animalistic instincts and a spiritual dimension. The inherent animal nature, with its fundamental needs and drives, is as powerful in humans as it is in animals. This instinctual side requires restraint through a strong self and ego. The greatest struggle, or *jihad*, is the internal battle against one’s own base desires to align with divine purpose. Those who fail to master their instincts risk self-deception, hindering their spiritual progress. True *jihad* lies in controlling the *nafs* and making it subservient to God. This lecture explores the duality of human nature and the path to spiritual elevation through self-discipline.
