Rasha:
Loses control of mind over heart:[1] A true Rasha however does not have control of his thoughts, as their hearts are in control of their minds and not the opposite. This is a result of their great sin. In order to regain control of the mind over the ehart, the Rasha must first do Teshuvah.
Davening for Reshaim:[2] It is a Mitzvah to Daven for Reshaim that they should repent and not enter Gihennim. It is forbidden for one to Daven for a Rasha to die. [One should Daven even for his enemies as at times they are the Gilgul of the Ruach of a Tzadik and through prayer their root becomes sweetened and leaves the Rasha, causing his evil to dissipate on its own.[3]]
