Persist With/In Zikrullah..

[Abu Hafsat]

As-Salaam alaikum, 

 Allah Ta'ala says :

"MAKE REMEMBRANCE OF GOD (Zikrullah) AS YOU DO OF YOUR FATHERS, OR WITH MORE LIVELY REMEMBRANCE" (2:220). He also said:

"MAKE REMEMBRANCE OF THY LORD IN THY SOUL, IN SUPPLICATION AND FEAR, WITHOUT THY WORD BEING AUDIBLE, AT MORNING AND EVENING." (7:204). 

The Prophet, Sallallahu alaihi Wasallam, said :-

"Go forth, for the unattached have preceded you." He was asked, "Who are the unattached, O Messenger of Allah"? He said, "Those who tremble with the Remembrance of God, until the Zikr removes their burdens from them and they come to resurrection lightly laden." (Sahih Muslim, Tirmidhi and Ibn Hanbal). 

The sincere mureed who sits to remember Almighty Allah, reciting known phrases of Zikr, especially the Zikr of LA ILAHA ILLALLAHU, should negate any stray thoughts that enter his heart, saying to himself : 'I desire nothing and seek nothing, and have no aim or object of love, ILLALLAH--other than God.' 

Having negated all stray thoughts with La-ilaha, he affirms the Mighty Presence as his sole aim, purpose and object of love with illallah. 

This form of attentive Zikr makes one unattached : it removes all obstacles in his path and all attachments, and conveys him lightly laden from this world of corporeality to the Hereafter of spirituality. It is to this that the Tradition, "Go forth, for the unattached have preceded you", refers.

Wa'alaykumus salaam

Brother the references for the verses in the beginning of the the post are incorrect

 

2:220: upon this world and the Hereafter. And they ask you ˹O Prophet˺ concerning orphans. Say, “Improving their condition is best. And if you partner with them, they are bonded with you ˹in faith˺.¹ And Allah knows who intends harm and who intends good. Had Allah willed, He could have made it difficult for you.² Surely Allah is Almighty, All-Wise.”

7:204:  When the Quran is recited, listen to it attentively and be silent, so you may be shown mercy.

I have edited your post and highlighted the verses. Please correct
