I had a thought, which I wanted to share. It is commonly understood that a person will receive in this world according to their efforts. For example, the student who does not study so hard might pass their exams, yet they will probably not obtain as much worldly success, like a good job, as the student who studied harder and therefore obtained a better grade. Similarly, Allah, the Exalted, rewards people according to their efforts, not just their verbal declaration of faith and good intention. For example, when describing those who are brought near to Allah, the Exalted, in the hereafter, the first blessing mentioned in the following verse is not high ranks in Paradise or huge palaces, it is instead rest. Chapter 56 Al Waqi’ah, verses 88-89:
“And if he was of those brought near [to Allāh]. Then [for him is] rest and bounty and a garden of pleasure.”
Those who are brought near to Allah, the Exalted, are granted rest before anything else because they tired themselves in His obedience in this world. This involves using the blessings one has been granted in ways pleasing to Allah, the Exalted, as outlined in the Holy Quran and the traditions of the Holy Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him.
Therefore, just like one typically receives worldly success according to their efforts in this world, similarly they will receive spiritual success in this world and in the next according to their efforts and intentions. Therefore, each Muslim must decide how much spiritual success they desire to obtain in this world and in the next and strive in the sincere obedience of Allah, the Exalted, accordingly.
