The Promised Messiah (May peace be upon him) says: " Do not think
that worldly wealth, dominion, honour and large progeny can bring
you peace and contentment. The fact is that true peace and
tranquillity, which is the gift of paradise, comes not

from these things
but from living and dying for the sake of God. The pleasures of the
world only increase impure desires and thirst. Thus they are like the
fire of hell that never leaves man in peace and always torments him
with anxiety and

and doubt and frustration. If you immerse yourself into
these worldly things more than it is necessary, then there will appear a
barrier between you and God, so that neither man moves towards
God, nor God moves towards man.

God says that He comes towards man only if man takes the first step towards Him. In order to remove this barrier, the world has to be held subservient to the faith. Wealth & children are called fitna (source of trial) because they create a barrier between

God & man. The Promised Messiah (May peace be upon him) says: Heat is produced by the rubbing of two objects. Thus as a result of the rubbing of man’s love and world’s love, a heat is
generated which burns away the love of God.

And the heart becomes estranged from God after becoming dark. However, when the love for worldly things is only for the sake of God as allowed by by Him, then the heat, generated through the rubbing, burns away the love for everything else other than

the love for God. And the heart becomes full of light & illumination, and man's and God's will becomes alike. God desires that you submit to Him completely , and do not turn to Him only now and then, when you see worldly benefits you turn away from

Him & forget Him". #Messiah #AhmadiyyatTheTrueIslam #ahmadiyya #Islam #wednesdaymorning #Beach
