Freeing oneself for Allah Ta'ala's worship

 يَا ابْنَ آدَمَ تَفَرَّغْ لِعِبَادَتِي أَمْلَأْ صَدْرَكَ غِنًى وَأَسُدَّ فَقْرَكَ، وَإِلَّا تَفْعَلْ مَلَأْتُ يَدَيْكَ شُغْلًا وَلَمْ أَسُدَّ فَقْرَكَ

عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ،  عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، قَالَ: " إِنَّ اللَّهَ تَعَالَى يَقُولُ: يَا ابْنَ آدَمَ تَفَرَّغْ لِعِبَادَتِي أَمْلَأْ صَدْرَكَ غِنًى وَأَسُدَّ فَقْرَكَ، وَإِلَّا تَفْعَلْ مَلَأْتُ يَدَيْكَ شُغْلًا وَلَمْ أَسُدَّ فَقْرَكَ


Hadrat Abu Hurairah Radiallahu Anhu narrates that Rasulullah Rasulullah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam is reported to have said that Allah Ta’ala says, “O son of Adam, Free your heart for my worship and I will fill your heart with independence and close the (doors) of poverty. If you do not do so, I will occupy you with worldly matters and neither will I close the (doors) of poverty.


It is understood from this Hadith that one will only attain peace, contentment and ease of this world when one frees himself for the Ibaadat of Allah Ta’ala. If he does not do so, he will be uneasy with the worries of the world. He will only receive that amount which has been destined for him.
