In today's wisdom, Ibn Ata Illah shifts the perspective for us on the obligations for worship.
The obligations of worship (five prayers, fasting Ramadan, Zakah, Hajj, etc.) can at times feel like a burden. This perspective does a disservice to the blessing of worship, and also completely distracts us from the reality of the results of the obligations: paradise.
Ibn Ata Illah gives us a perspective shift that completely changes the mindset that we have toward worship; he asks us to consider not only that certain actions have been obligated upon us, but rather that Jannah has been obligated us through the deeds that have been made mandatory.
