When Does a Person Connect with Allah?

■ When Does a Person Connect with Allah?

A person connects with Allah when they start to see their life like a movie, filled with temporary characters who have been carried away by time. These characters once brought them happiness, but it was just an illusion. The feeling of their presence made them forget the true source of joy, which is Allah, the one who filled their life with colors.

Then, a person often breaks down because of those who once brought them peace. This happens when everything feels scattered—honor, relationships, and friends. Only then do they realize why Allah made them go through all this. They understand why they had to endure the bitterness of changing behaviors, especially when even the kindness of a stranger feels like a treasure.

When they close their eyes, they can see how Allah has guided them through many paths to bring them closer to Him. He closed every other path and door, leading them only to Himself. They find a lasting peace free from the fear of temporary loves.

How fortunate are those whom Allah breaks down to connect them back to Himself! He shows that even if He takes away love from people’s hearts in the world, He Himself will never leave them.
