✍ Someone asked Khwaja Abdullah Ansari, "What is worship?"
He replied, "Worship is serving humanity."
They inquired, "How so?"
He explained, "If you engage in any profession and consider God's satisfaction, which naturally includes the satisfaction of people, as your goal, then its name is worship."
They further asked, "What about prayer, fasting, and almsgiving?"
He responded, "These are acts of obedience that a servant must perform to draw closer to God and receive the divine light."
Worship is nothing but serving humanity; it is not confined to beads, prayer rugs, or religious attire.
