How do I remove the worldly life from my heart and place it in my hand?

Among the things that help remove the worldly life from the heart and place it in one's hands are: understanding the reality and insignificance of this world, visiting graves and contemplating the state of their inhabitants, reading the biographies of pious ascetics and worshippers, frequently perusing books of encouragement and deterrence, and associating with the poor and observing those who are less fortunate in wealth. Among the most important books that encourage asceticism in this world are: "Az-Zuhd" by Imam Ahmad ibn Hanbal, "Az-Zuhd wal-Raqa'iq" by Imam Abdullah ibn al-Mubarak, "Ar-Riqaq" from Sahih al-Bukhari, "Az-Zuhd wal-Raqa'iq" from Sahih Muslim, "Mukhtasar Minhaj al-Qasidin," and "Al-Bahr ar-Ra'iq fi az-Zuhd wal-Raqa'iq" by Sheikh Ahmad Farid.
