To attain Marifat (Allah's recognition) we must ponder on the bounties of Allah - the more a person contemplates over the favours of Allah, the more one will identify with Allah, the more will he recognize the immense mercy and kindness of Allah.

Love for wealth and engrossment with the world leads a person to spiritual death. Therefore, it is imperative for every person to seek guidance on how to manage the way one lives, his dealings, relationships, spending, charity and his inner temptations and thoughts.
The path to attainment has been simplified
The method is to pursue with steadfastness that which is attainable and to ignore and resign oneself from that which is not in one’s control.
