The questioner : ... .

The Shaykh : Yes, this is correct, and this may be brought up as an objection, but the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) did not love the world. For this reason, he said:
A servant was given the choice by Allah between living in this world as long as Allah willed for him to live, and what is with Allah, so he chose what is with Allah. إن عبدا خيره الله بين أن يعيش في الدنيا ما شاء الله له أن يعيش وبين ما عند الله فاختار ما عند الله
He wanted to make this a provision for the Hereafter. But as for me and those like me, can we be certain that we will have this in the Hereafter? We cannot be certain. Perhaps we will deprive ourselves of the good of this world, and in the Hereafter, we will ask Allah for pardon and well-being.
