The Beloved Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم has stated, ‘The one imparting knowledge to others and forgetting himself is like a lamp (candle) which provides people with light whereas it burns itself.

Talking about the method of protection from the destruction of the Nafs, Huzoor Ghaus-e-Pak رَضِىَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُ has said: The Nafs only suggests evils; it is in its nature; it will be reformed after a long period of time; it is compulsory for you to oppose your
