How Does Someone Get To That Level Of Feeling Near To Allah? [I Am Enjoying Being A Muslim]

[big]The feeling of nearness to Allah (spiritually), there's nothing like it. That's greater than Paradise itself. [/big]

How do you get there? How do you fill your heart to get it bubbling with faith?
Submission. Surrender. Take the dive.

How does someone get to that level of feeling acquainted, near to Allah?
It's by obeying Him.

How do you get to the level of obeying Him?
Through Him. Beg Him to enable you to enlist yourself genuinely among His slaves. That will give you life.

[Quran 8:24]
[quote]Respond to Allah and to the Messenger when he calls you to that which gives you life[/quote]

From what i've seen people can feel near to anything, it doesn't have to make any sense or even be grounded in reality. Stop relying on your emotions and start relying on logic and reasoning.

@MartinTheFirst The belief in God requires both, emotion and logic.

@MartinTheFirst Well said.👌

@Madeleine You are free to believe whatever you will. Faith by definition is belief without evidence. I cannot help you with this one.

@GreenNinja What if you believe in something because of the reasoning behind it?

GreenNinja

@Madeleine I am all for reason and rationality. It really helps me to be sceptical and a critical thinker. I am open to any possibility but think am able to see the wood for the trees. I really hope you find what you are looking for "The feeling of nearness to Allah".👌

@GreenNinja Can you see love?

GreenNinja

@Madeleine Nope, I cannot. I feel it when I look at those I love.

@GreenNinja It's not logical, is it?
