Abu Hafsat Posted 7 hours ago Report Share Posted 7 hours ago As-Salaam alaikum, The complete one (Kamil) does not worship Allah for any motive, except one or, if necessary two. The first is that one worships Allah, the Exalted so that Allah, the Exalted will love him for his following His commands and adhering to what he was created for. For, if Allah Ta'ala loves him, He will subject all of the universe to him and everything will obey him. If he says to it, "Be", then it is, by the indication of His saying, (When I love him, I am his hearing by which he hears....)/ Hadith-Qudsi. However, he does not say to anything "Be", out of courtesy with his Lord, and in light of the station of slave-hood (al-Ubudiyya). Because, verily, the slave does not exceed his degree by giving orders. And his station is only to receive orders, unless his Lord gives him permission, so that he speaks with the tongue of his Lord, not with the tongue of his self (nafsihi). And the second purpose is that one worships Allah Ta'ala, for the sake of (seeing) His Honored Face in the place of eternal bliss (Dar al-na'im al-muqim).
