Extinguishing the Fire of Desires

That person who is not able to control the desires of his nafs and becomes overcome by the attacks of his nafs, then the cure for this person is the zikr of Allah.  When he will remember Allah abundantly, then by the water of his zikr, the fire of his desires of his nafs will be extinguished.  Once the fire is put out, the noor of taqwa will be attained.
