 'There is a Polish for everything that takes away Rust ...{!} 

 and the Polish for the Heart is ...? 

 The  Remembrance  of  Allah.' [Source: S.Bukhari] 

 Al-Bayhaqee relates from Ibn ‘Umar [Radiallaahu ‘Anhu] ....

 *PROPHET* ﷺ ~ said...“For everything there is a Polish, 

 and the Polish for the Hearts is the 'DHIKR'...[Remembrance] of Allah....! 

 There is nothing more potent in saving a person from the punishment of Allah 

 than the 'Dhikr' of Allah.”

  It was said..'Not even 'Jihad' in the path of Allah' {?}

Prophet [Sallallahu ‘Alayhi wa Salaam] replied...

 “ Not even if you were to continue striking with  your sword until it breaks.”

[Source:  Saheeh: Related by Ahmad (4/352), from Mu'aadh ibn Jabal [Radiallaahu 'anhu].

 A Little Note....

 The polish for a rusty heart is the 'Dhikr' of  ALLAH ! 

 This is because 'Dhikr' is like a polish (which polishes the heart) like a shiny mirror ! 

 When 'Dhikr' is left, the rust returns...{!}

 But when 'Dhikr' resumes...then the Heart is again Polished...{!} 

 ~Ibn Qayyim al-Jawziyya (Rahimahullah) said...

“Doubtless, a heart grows tarnished like brass or silver, and its polish is by remembrance, 

 which may make it shine like a crystal mirror... !

So when one neglects the remembrance it Tarnishes....{!} 

 and when he returns it shines....{!}

 Since the heart is Tarnished by two [2] things...Heedlessness  and  Sin... 

 it is polished by two [2] things....

 Remembrance and asking Forgiveness.”
