Things are talked about about khwahish, then irada and then iqdaam (step taken) and gunah sarzad. I’m confused a little.
Here ghamidi sahab said that only khwahish is not accountable, here khwahish means simple natural urge? Or something more ahead of it?
If a person decided to in his mind to do sin, but then didn’t take any step himself to accomplish this sin, and then later changed his decision. Will he be punished for his decision in mind merely? Here I want to give 2 examples…
1) a person decides that when he will receive share from an asset in inheritance then he’ll spend it in immorality and gambling. But after some months and before receiving share he changed his decision. Here it was mere decision but no action with it. Will he be sinful here?
2) a person decides to travel to a country to spend some days in Zina and lavish parties. He gets tickets and visa and does mundane actions like going to offices to get documents for traveling and then physically traveling to that country with an aim of lavish parties. But soon after landing he changed his decision. Here decision was followed by some action but not direct action to commit sin (unlike a person who does direct action of triggering a gun to kill someone but the gun jam). Here in this case will this person who decided to go to that country and went, will he be sinful?
