A model is before us – a model which seeks the pleasure of Allah as the purpose of its existence and depends entirely upon Him every moment. This is the model for us to follow as an individual, as a culture. But once the yearning and seeking are directed to the plenty and luxury of the present life, to the temptations of better standards of living as the goals of life, the divine company is also disrupted. Then, one is, consciously or unconsciously, led to emulate another model, a model which the Qur’ān characterizes in three totally different ways, and exhorts us to avoid it:

Do not follow him [1] whose ‘heart’ We have caused to be heedless of Our remembrances, [2] and who follows his desires, and [3] whose attitude is of excess. (Verse 28)
