Asalam o alaykum wa rhamatullah!

An excellent article Alhamdulillah. May Allah make us among them.

However, I would just give a suggestion to the writer where he has written,

“Imagine Him seeing you and your sight upon the Face of the One who loved you most. Imagine the Lord of the Heavens and the Earth, extending His greetings to you and personally congratulating you for your success. In this Dunya, our eman has its highs and its lows but imagine a place where you were closest to Allah (swt), and that never changed”

Imagining the Lord is something which is not possible with the limited human mind. However, on forceful imagination, there is a great chance that we start imagining Allah SWT which does not befits His majesty. I suggest to add an ayah of Quran here,

Ash-Shura 42: Ayah 11

لَيْسَ كَمِثْلِهِ شَيْءٌ ۖ وَهُوَ السَّمِيعُ الْبَصِيرُ
There is nothing like unto Him, and He is the All-Hearer, the All-Seer.

and following the ayah a sentence “and its impossible to imagine our Lord by the limited human mind”

May Allah forgive my mistakes and may He remove from me all bad things Ameen.

All praise be to Allah who gave the writer beautiful opportunity to think on these lines.

WASALAM

Assalmau alaikum

Barakallah fekum ukhti.

As I see it.Goal/Inspiration can be either:Jannah or pleasing Allah.Allah and His prophet (Pbuh) has mentioned about both .

But undoubtedly the latter intention is far more nobler and husn than the former.It is found in the pious and seekers of Allah.They seek the Divine,while the rest of the believers,who busy ourselves in halal joys, like us, are driven by the pleasures in Paradise.

Jazakumullah kulli khair for reminding us whats better.

assalamu alaikkum,wonderful article. Yes we as human beings are always in search of materialistic comforts.
Allah the most knowing, knows that too.
Thats why Allah promises all the stuff we wish for in jannah. But the truth is,For a true believer who loves Allah, there’s and there should be nothing more pleasing
than meeting Allah and receiving salams in jannah.
For a true believer, love of Allah is first, everything else is next.
