Such thoughts might be a dominion from Satan to grieve the believer. Therefore, one must strive to vex him by repelling these thoughts, being content with the current state, thanking Allah for it, and asking Him for more. One should also increase in remembrance (dhikr) for the heart to find tranquility, and supplicate so that Allah may remove these obsessions from you, and occupy oneself with what benefits in this world and the Hereafter.
