GUIDANCE (HIDĀYAH) IS FROM ALLĀH
You should know that the way to Allāh cannot be walked using feet but rather using hearts, and that the sudden impulse desires of the hearts are bandits and thieves. While the road you embark on is like a dark night.
Yet the eye of the one whom Allāh guides, is like the eye sight of the horse; thereby he's able to see in the dark just as clear as it can see in the daytime.
And sincerity (ikhlās) while embarking on the road is a beacon that directs to the right direction. Only those with insincere intentions will stumble in their walk, and those who refuse to be sincere are those whom Allāh does not select (for guidance).
