The migration by Godspeed from the worldly life and the hereafter to God’s sake
What does it mean? It means the migration of the heart, inside the Intention, it means that
When man intent to do anything in his life,
He does not do it for the sake of worldly life, desire, fame, prominence, or hypocrisy
And he does not do it for rewards or paradise in the Hereafter
But he does it for the sake of Allah
This is the highly ranked meaning of migration mentioned by Allah describing the characteristics of "Ahl Al Suffah” group.
Allah mentioned them and said to His beloved prophet and the chosen about them: “And keep your soul content with those who call on their Lord morning and evening, seeking His Face,” (Surat Al-Kahf, Verse 28)
So, they are seeking God’s countenance; they do everything for the sake of Allah
This is the higher, fuller, and sublime practice of migration.
This is the migration of “Al Afraad” (unique individuals) those who hurried to Allah,
“Hasten you then (at once) to Allah. I am from Him a Warner to you, clear and open!” Surat Azzareyat Verse 50.
So, in the beginning of migration festival days of each year, each one should check, review, and correct his migration intents. Then, he should re-immigrate to Allah.
For instance, in the beginning of each year,
If you just leave one of your bad ethics and do not return to it, then you do the right immigration to Allah
I always say to my brothers and my students to set up an annual schedule of leaving their bad ethics.
For instance, this year I’m planning to leave lying; I take a promise not to lie and never to return to it.
Never to lie in both seriousness and entertainment talk and never to break the promise I had taken on myself
Next year I do the same and so on
One day, you will find yourself as it was said: (keep yourself on the straight path of the chosen-one, then you will be connected in his group)
You will be included in the meaning of: “Muhammad is the apostle of Allah. and those who are with him” Surat Al-Fat’h Verse 29.
But the one who lets himself goes astray without reviewing his ethics, changing his bad habits, or without correcting his intents, he will regret at the end of his life.
He will say while taking his last throes – “ 'Ah! Woe is me! In that I neglected (my duty) towards Allah,” Surat Al-Zumar Verse 56.
So, each one of us should review and check all of his manners, his behaviors, his intents, and his deeds in order to test and measure them by the balance of the apostle of Allah (PBUH).
