What is the way to get rid of the feeling of boredom and weariness with this fleeting worldly life?
The reasons for disliking this worldly life can be numerous: Some people dislike it out of desire for what is with Allah and love for meeting Him, and this is the state of a believer who strives in goodness. Others dislike it because they see their share in it as meager, and this is a form of discontent with Allah's decrees. Some dislike it due to the abundance of afflictions they have experienced, and this type has not realized that this world is a realm of action and trial, and that Allah tests the believer to expiate their sins and elevate their status.
To overcome this dislike, the following is recommended: 1. Increase in supplication and drawing near to Allah through acts of worship, for by the remembrance of Allah do hearts find tranquility. 2. Believe that Allah's decrees are good for the believer, and that a servant's righteousness with their Lord suffices them from the burden of people. 3. Submit to Allah's divine decree and destiny, for what has been missed might have been a cause of one's destruction if it had been obtained. 4. Review one's relationship with Allah, for a servant may be deprived of provision due to their sins. 5. Resolve personal and family problems by prioritizing and seeking assistance from Allah and experts. 6. Remember that the most severely tested people are the Prophets, then the righteous, and that affliction raises the believer's status. 7. Continuously engage in seeking forgiveness and worship, for in them lies the removal of worries and provision from where one does not expect.
