Whatever...

Whatever, enters into their ears does not prevent them from God’s Remembrance, and similarly possession of gold and wealth does not to make them negligent from God's worshipping, thus, they are the ones who earn the rewards of Hereafter because of their being aware about the religion.” [^4] The Holy Prophet (S) said: قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله: لايجد المؤمن حلاوة الايمان فى قلبه حتى لا يبالى من اكل الدنيا.

“A person never tastes the sweetness of faith until and unless he becomes indifferent to whatever has been eaten by him.” [^5] Therefore, it is necessary for a wayfarer to completely detach his heart from such attractions so that movement and migration towards the higher exalted positions become possible for him. He should thoroughly cleanse his heart from thoughts and anxieties of worldly affairs so that they could be replaced by God's Remembrance.

However, it must be reminded that whatever has been condemned is -infatuation and intense attachment to worldly affairs -and not worldly affairs in themselves. A wayfarer, like any other human being for continuation of life needs housing, clothing, food, and life partner and in order to fulfill these requirements he has no choice except to work.

For the continuation of human race and to leave his offspring one must marry and for the sake of social life he has no choice except to accept social responsibilities. It is because of these considerations that none of them have been condemned in the Islamic canon law ( sharia )[^6]. Instead if performed with the intention of God's Nearness ( qurb ), all of them are considered as worships bringing a person closer to God-Almighty.

Because these things in themselves do not act as obstacles for movement, undertaking a gnostic journey, and engaging in God's Remembrance. What acts as an obstacle for movement and invocation is infatuation and intense attachments to these affairs. If these affairs become the life's main aim and objective, thus, occupying his attention and thoughts completely in themselves then such a situation would result in his becoming negligent from God's Remembrance.

Therefore in Islam money worshipping, women worshipping, and power and education worshipping are condemned because they prevent a man from migration and movement towards God-Almighty but the money, women, education, and position in themselves are not condemned.
