Therefore, always supplicate (make dua) to Allah Ta’ala, and be steadfast in the activities of the Deen. Spend your entire life in this mujaahadah (struggle against the nafs) The world is a life-long journey. There is no hope of accomplishing this journey before the end of life. To entertain such a hope is indeed extremely unintelligent.”
In this naseehat Hadhrat Hakimul Ummat says that it is a colossal deception to believe that the moral and spiritual journey can be terminated during this transitory life on earth. The struggle against the nafs is perpetual—as long as life lasts on earth. No one can afford to sit back and rest labouring under the impression that he has finally immobilized his nafs, hence the route of Mujaahadah has ended. Such an idea is a gigantic deception.
