All human beings claim that they own land, house, car, wealth, clothes, mobiles, jobs, kids and so on. A huge long list is there around us that we humans claim “meri” ”my “or “mine”.

Since childhood the thought that prevails in our mind is to try hard to own some worldly things by using any kind of source. This decides the success or failure of a person in the society. So bringing up or living in this society remains only for materialistic things. Social fabric around us holds the only thought of having a huge list of things for which the words “My”, “Mine”, “Meri” or “Mera” can be used.

                     There is no nurture of the thought about the Day of Judgment, to be accountable before Allah SWT and thinking of life beyond the sphere of materialism. Human Internal sweet desires and “Nafs” are becoming the more irresistible thing in life and war against it must be tried to fight till the last breath.  

Keeping in view of the man’s greed for the worldly affairs Allah SWT says in Quran,

                     “Have you seen him who has taken as his ilah (God) his own desire? Would you then be Wakil (a disposer of his affairs or a watcher) over him?

(25:43)

                     Or. “Do you think that most of them hear or understand? They are only like cattle; nay, they are even farther astray from the Path.(i.e even worse than cattle)

(25:44)

Even our body and soul are not ours and all the human claim about “meri” are the blessings of Allah for the limited time only while one think that it is one’s own forever.The Human’s only claim as its own is the only It’s “own will”, “marzi”, “irada”. The only thing which can human surrender before Allah SWT is It’s “own will”, “marzi”, “irada” and can pave the way to develop the association with Allah SWT and that association will become a guiding star in this worldly life and hereafter.

                         The humans put their utmost efforts in the way of achieving worldly desires only and keep neglecting their ultimate goal …”Akhirat”. Allah SWT says in the Holy Quran “Verily! They love the present life of this world, and put behind them a heavy Day (76:27).The increase in the ownership list of worldly things, especially wealth increases the rate of satisfaction and success in the human mind. As Allah SWT says in the Holy Quran “And verily, he is violent in the love of wealth” (100:8) .This Love of wealth never ends but the life ends as Allah SWT says,” The Mutual rivalry for piling up of worldly things diverts you until you visit the graves (i.e. till you die) (102:1&2).  

         

 In Toto, The lifestyle of the people is the epitome of untiring efforts of enhancing the ownership of worldly perishable things only keeping aside the way of attaining these.

                  The Holy Quran is the only book in which Allah Rabul Izzat directly explains human nature in a simple and explicit way with examples for the betterment of humanity and to keep continuous improvement towards the right path. Moreover, it emphasizes that the people who embraces Islam and want to understand and feel the  “Eman” in the the deepest valley of heart and to feel the deep inner essence of “Eman” with the core of heart must surrender their “Will”, “Marzi” and to the Will and Marzi of Allah Rabul Izzat. So, success or failure is the only success or failure as described by Allah Rabul Izzat and a person who wants to travel on the motorway of success must be ready to surrender his “Will” only.
