SHaykh Zahir: The First Time

Shaykh Zahir mentioned in class on Thursday that his teachers used to caution being late for the first time to their classes as once one is late the first time it is easier to do so thereafter. He said it is the same with sin. Sinning the first time in some area is always the hardest and repeating the same sin becomes easier thereafter. He preceded saying all this by saying "Every habit begins with a 'first time'"
