Possible cure to weak imaan
Avoid Major Sins:
Avoid all your sins, open or secret. (Al_Quraan_006.120)
If ye avoid the great (sins), which ye are forbidden, we will remit from you your evil deeds and make you enter at a noble gate. (Al_Quraan_004.031)
(If anyone does, whatever Allah has forbidden us to do; it will be a great sin. While if anyone does, whatever Muhammad has forbidden us to do, other than what is already in Quraan, the majority of that will be small sins.)
Ask Allah to forgive you, in such a way that you will never ever do it again; otherwise it will be like a joke with Allah. May Allah forgive you. AMEEN.

{Invite (mankind, O Muhammad ) to the Way of your Lord (i.e. Islam) with wisdom (i.e. with the Divine Inspiration and the Qur'an) and fair preaching, and argue with them in a way that is better. Truly, your Lord knows best who has gone astray from His Path, and He is the Best Aware of those who are guided.}
(Holy Quran-16:125)
{And who is better in speech than he who [says: "My Lord is Allah (believes in His Oneness)," and then stands straight (acts upon His Order), and] invites (men) to Allah's (Islamic Monotheism), and does righteous deeds, and says: "I am one of the Muslims."} (Holy Quran-41:33)
The prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "By Allah, if Allah guides one person by you, it is better for you than the best types of camels." [al-Bukhaaree, Muslim]
The prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) also said, "Whoever calls to guidance will have a reward similar to the reward of the one who follows him, without the reward of either of them being lessened at all."
[Muslim, Ahmad, Aboo Daawood, an-Nasaa'ee, at-Tirmidhee, Ibn Maajah]
