One Can See God

Owing to his limitations, man cannot see God in this present world, but he experiences God’s mercy and blessings at every moment, and this experience is the real source of his love of God. Everything man has received in this world is a blessing from God. The more one thinks of divine blessings, the more one’s love of God will increase. The source of the love of God is the discovery of blessings and not the sight (deedar) of the Benefactor (God). The realisation of God is the discovery of the Benefactor, who is the source of all blessings. When man attains this realisation in the real sense, the love of God wells up within him. Every fibre of his being is enlightened with divine love. Obedience to God is, without doubt, the demand of faith, but it would be an underestimation of the love of God if it is taken only in the sense of obedience. Obedience is only a legal description of the relationship with God, whereas love entails man’s entire existence being moulded in the remembrance of God. A man comes to acknowledge God in the perfect sense when it is with the whole of his being. The Quran says: “Remembrance of God gives one’s heart peace of mind”. (13:28) Moreover, it means that only the love of God can give man peace of mind in the real sense.
