The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) says that faith wears out and weakens in the Muslim's heart as new clothing is worn out with long use. This stems from lethargy in worship or the commission of sins and indulgence in desires. So, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) instructed us to supplicate to Allah Almighty to renew our faith by performing our obligations and frequently remembering Him and asking Him for forgiveness.Benefits
The Hadīth urges us to ask Allah Almighty for steadfastness and renewal of faith in our hearts.
Faith comprises words, deeds, and beliefs, and it increases by good deeds and decreases by sins.
