Part 1: Knowledge Section

Why is it necessary to defeat nafs-i ammāra? This has been explained by the Holy Prophet (s.a.s) as follows:

"The great Lord of Lords, Mawlā 'Ali,—upon whom be the blessings of God, the King, the All High!—said that once the Prophet (blessings of God be upon him) send a party of his companions on a military expedition. On their return, when they came before his presence, he greeted them as men who had participated in a jihād-i asghar, or the smaller war in the cause of religion, and said they still has to take up the jihād-i akbar, the greater war. Whereupon they inquired from the Apostle of God, asking: "What is jihād-i akbar?" And he replied that the most glorious war is that which one wages against his own vile instincts (nafs-i ammāra). This is, indeed, the truth,—blessings of God be upon him who said this!" (Source: True Meaning of Religion, pp. 1-2)
