AN IMPORTANT ASPECT OF TRUE FOLLOWING



AN   IMPORTANT   ASPECT   OF   TRUE    FOLLOWING

Another  important  aspect  of such  true  following  is  to consider the direction, as a whole, of the Prophet Muhammad's   impeccable  life!    

  • What  was  the  task  for which the Prophet (SAW) worked so hard? 
  •  What thought occupied his mind throughout his life? 
  • Towards what aim were  all his efforts and  striving  directed?    
  • What  was  the  aim  for which  the Prophet  (SAW) lived a life of such grueling  effort?

In this world every  individual,  consciously  or  unconsciously,  sets  an aim for himself. His efforts and struggle are then directed towards achieving that aim. A person may work hard and strive in his profession to reach successively higher levels of excellence in its expertise and  to make a position  for himself. 

Like any professional, a politician too has an aim. He yearns for occupying an important post in the Government  and for the reins of power  to be in his own hands and of his (political) party. A businessman  too has an aim. He works hard and toils burning the midnight oil, ordering goods from and dispatching them to every nook and  comer  of the world.  He keeps a close eye on price fluctuations  in  markets  all  over  the  world.  The  entire gamut of his activities is dictated by his aim.
