The way for a person and particularly the true servants of Allah for them to walk upon the earth requires the main attribute of humility. This is knowing oneself and also that the earth is a firm surface that each step that holds you up is carefully walked with humbleness and dignity. A person is supposed to have calmness and serenity when walking as if they are travelling downhill with the earth folded up beneath them. What this means is that each gentle step that a person travels with a certain pace requires tranquility and as though the earth steps with you as each careful step takes something from the earth which is an upright and decent approach to returning that which is taken without leaving the earth with itself but carefully places the return to the step after step as though the dirt beneath your feet is adding a mark that can be remembered by the earth. That this gentle true humble believer treats and treads with gentle, kindness and forbearance which is where the goodness of each step makes them feel light dynamic and caring to the earth which belongs only to Allah.
It is important for a person not to feel as though the earth belongs to them, for we are made of the earth, we must treat it with respect and one day we will return back to the earth within where a person will be either remembered and the earth will weep in sadness that the true servant of the most Compassionate will no longer be treating me well and prostrating upon the various allowed places upon its surface. The earth will remember and cry that it misses the true servant that submitted only to Allah.
A person must not walk with conceit, arrogance and pride upon the earth for the earth and its inhabitants do not like the haughty and those that think too much of themselves as though they are better than the earth upon which they walk and its inhabitants. It is recommended to therefore be humble, calm and with humility maintain dignity and not to make a show of their humility.
It is as if the earth will no longer care for the one that walks with such pride, arrogance and makes a show of their humility as this conceit is where the earth according to the will of Allah may entirely consume the person and that person will be sinking within its depths till the last hour.
The true servants of Allah the most Compassionate and the most Benevolent when they are amongst other people on the earth and they come across those that are ignorant it is possible to realise a persons ignorance particularly from the vain talk, foul language or evil speech that has consumed there heart and which emanates from their heart through their voices which are based on hate as ignorance stems from pride and is full of dislike for others. The true servants of Allah respond to such ignorant people with salaams or Peace as they will not respond in kind to the way they talk to each other and to the true servants of Allah.
The ignorant people are best responded to with that which is good words, peace and not to fall into their way of life and not to respond with their way of speech. This however requires a lot of patience and the more ignorant persons an individual comes across the more patience is required to respond and be amongst them to try and make them see the beneficial knowledge which may take away some part of their ignorance. This requires a lot of patience in managing and working or living amongst such people, yet most people are genuinely interested in maintaining good conversation particularly that which reminds them of the Creator of all that exists and the One who taught people the languages that stem from the sounds the phonetics and the linguistics of language that is entirely a powerful mode of transforming and making aware or changing the awareness of what is in a person’s heart that may make them illuminated and live to achieve a sound heart.
As everyone knows the true slaves or servants of Allah say and wish salaams upon each other and their people they have to live amongst as this is why they are a most strange yet a place of wonder within the heart that tells them that it will be a life time of using the words of the Quran the Creators literal divine speech that informs changes hearts and brings a person to a place that will be in awe at the magnificence of the words that entirely free from immorality and corruption as the Quranic Arabic is a linguistic and deep fathomable ocean of knowledge which teaches wisdom, and truth and is a noble book of the All Knowing, All Wise that continues to perform miracles upon the earth and is worth more than all the earth and what it contains.
From dust to the surface and back to the dust where for one last time we will all be resurrected and then have to stand before the Creator Allah SWT and be held accountable for everything that we said and acted upon while our short lived lives on the earth. So prepare for that meeting, it is only a breath or step away, remember to be humble and have humility when upon the earth.
