"I think I might be a fraud." Zaid prays and feels nothing — and it terrifies him.

Bilal brings the story of Hanzala, a companion who feared he'd become a hypocrite, and what the Prophet ﷺ told him: faith rises and falls — an hour, and an hour. On spiritual numbness, iman that dips, and why the worry itself is proof your heart is still alive.

Referenced: the hadith of Hanzala (Sahih Muslim); a narration that faith wears out in the heart like clothes; "the most beloved deeds are the most consistent, even if small" (Bukhari & Muslim); the dua Ya muqallib al-quloob, thabbit qalbi 'ala deenik.
