"They changed the state of their hearts"

Ibn Rajab Al-Hanbali writes:

عقب ابن رجب رحمه الله : فهؤلاء القوم لما صلحت قلوبهم ، فلم يبق فيها إرادة لغير الله عز وجل ، صلحت جوارحهم ، فلم تتحرك إلا لله عز وجل ، وبما فيه رضاه

ENGLISH:

"So they were a people, when they changed the state of their hearts, they did not do anything except for the sake of Allaah. The actions of their limbs also changed for the better, for they did not move, except for the sake of Allaah and except for the pleasure of Allaah".

NEDERLANDS:

"Deze volk toen zij hun eigen harten hadden verbeterd, tot het punt dat zij niets deden behalve omwille van Allah, waardoor (de daden van) hun ledematen ook verbeterden. Zij beweegden dus niet, behalve omwille van Allah, en naar hetgeen Hij tevreden mee was".
