3 He صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم said: Undoubtedly, Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ loves most that beautiful young man amongst His creation who spent his youth and beauty in worshipping Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ. Taking pride in him in front of the angels, Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ says, ‘He is My real bondman.’ (Kanz-ul-‘Ummal, vol. 15, pp. 332, Hadees 42096)

محبت میں اپنی گُما یا اِلٰہی نہ پاوؤں میں اپنا پتا یا اِلٰہی
تُو اپنی وِلایت کی خَیرات دیدے مِرے غَوث کا واسِطَہ یا الٰہی
(Wasail-e-Bakhshish, pp. 105)
صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب صَلَّى اللّٰهُ تَعَالٰى عَلٰى مُحَمَّد
Dear Islamic brothers! Have you heard that those who appreciate their youth, Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ grants them such a favour and grace that He عَزَّوَجَلَّ includes them among His beloved bondmen! Therefore, young Islamic brothers are requested that if they want to live a peaceful and comfortable life in their old age, then appreciate the blessing of youth by trying to make their Nafs attracted to worship instead of running after the mortal world. Though it is very difficult as hopes and desires are at their peak in youth, but along with our other affairs, if we follow the Beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم and act upon the noble and virtuous life of the Beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم, then اِنْ شَــآءَالـلّٰـه عَزَّوَجَلَّ there will be a Madani reformation in our lives as well.

Sayyiduna Ibn ‘Umar رَضِىَ الـلّٰـهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُما humbly asked: ‘Tell us something about the Beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم that would astonish us.’ She رَضِیَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهَا started weeping and said: ‘One night, the Beloved and Blessed Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم came to me and said: ‘Allow me to worship my Rab (عَزَّوَجَلَّ).’ I humbly said: ‘I prefer your closeness to Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ more than my desire.’ Therefore, the Noblest Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم stood in a corner of the house and started weeping.
