It is mentioned in a blessed Hadith Shareef: ‘مَنْ تَوَاضَعَ لِلّٰہِ رَفَعَہُ اللّٰہ’ ‘Whosoever, for Allah Almighty, lowers himself, Allah Almighty grants him elevation’ (high rank or greatness). (Kanz-ul-Ummal, Kitab-ul-Akhlaq, Juzz 3, vol. 2, p. 50, Hadith 5732)

In the 22^nd Juzz of the Holy Quran, in Surah Al-Faatir, verse number 10, Allah Almighty states:

مَنْ كَانَ یُرِیْدُ الْعِزَّةَ فَلِلّٰهِ الْعِزَّةُ جَمِیْعًاؕ-

Whoever desires honour, so (he should know that) all honour belongs to Allah.

[Kanz-ul-Iman (Translation of Quran)] (Part 22, Surah Al-Faatir, verse 10)

Sayyiduna Qatadah رَضِىَ الـلّٰـهُ عَـنْهُ explains regarding this verse:
‘مَنْ کَانَ یُرِیْدُ الْعِزَّۃَ فَلْیَتَعَزَّزْ بِطَاعَۃِ اللّٰہ’ ‘Whoever desires honour, he should seek this by obeying Allah Almighty’, this means that honour comes from serving and obeying Allah Almighty. (Tafseer Khaazin, Part 22, Surah Al-Faatir, under verse 10, vol. 3, p. 453)

The father of A’la Hadrat رَحْمَةُ الـلّٰـهِ عَلَيْه furthermore states: Whosoever performs worship, Allah Almighty loves them, they receive esteem, all of their works are fulfilled, they attain the help of Allah Almighty during difficulties, they are saved from the evil of their enemies, panic and worry is removed from their heart, they are granted great strength, their hearts are expanded, they learn knowledge with utmost ease, their love is placed in the hearts of creation, and they are destined to receive barakah to the extent that, people seek barakah from their clothing and home and take benefit from this.

Furthermore, the one who is engaged in worship, becomes ‘مُسْتَجَابُ الْدَّعْوَات’, meaning all of his supplications are accepted. By performing worship, their soul becomes fresh and strengthened. According to doctors, there is nothing better than performing worship,
