I Am as My Servant Thinks of Me | Mufti Abdur-Rahman ibn Yusuf
Shaykh Abdur-Rahman (hafizahullah) continues to explain how the seeker must understand that Allah is the ultimate Benefactor, and thinking the creation to be the source of any benefit can lead one to becoming dishonoured in the sight of Allah. The seeker should abandon those desires which move them to acquire what people have. By this ambitious desire they have abandoned the Generous Lord and turned toward a needy servant. This will only plant the seeds of disgrace. Shaykh then advises that in order to cultivate the seeds of contentment and be honoured in the sight of Allah the seeker must keep honourable thoughts of their Master Most High and understand Allah to be the fulfiller of all needs. Allah gives to His servants according to how they think of Him as mentioned in a narration “I am as my servant thinks of Me”.
