HOW WOULD YOU FEEL?
Present to yourself the most beloved thing to you in this life whereby if it were taken away from you, you would not feel any pleasure in this life.
Then imagine it was taken away from you and a barrier was placed between both of you in your most needy moment, how would you feel?
Imagine this feeling even though this beloved thing can be replaced, so reflect over the thing that can never be replaced.
Anything, if you lose it, can be replaced -- but there isn't a replacement for Allāh if you lose [a connection with] Him.
