This state occurs mostly in worldly affairs, ingratitude, fatigue, boredom, and restlessness, and its origin is factors such as not achieving the expected conditions, deprivation of personal interests, suspicion of God, not knowing God, neglecting God's mercy, focusing on the blessings and forgetting the benefactor, the feeling of not being shown mercy while he is in dire need of that mercy, and exclusive attention to normal causes of the world of creation.
