An individual who reflects will understand the secrets of God’s creation and the truth about the life of this world. He will recognize God’s attributes in everything. Unlike most of mankind, throughout his life he will think about why he exists. He grasps the knowledge that God has taught him and begins to think as God has commanded.
As a result, he will take more pleasure than anyone else in God’s blessings and he will not worry needlessly or involve himself in the care of worldly ambitions. These are only some of the wonderful things that such a thinking person will gain in this world. By thinking and always seeing the truth, in the endless hereafter, a person will gain the love, approval, mercy and paradise of God.
God calls on us, His servants thus so that we can succeed:
"So set your face firmly towards the True Religion, before a Day comes from God which cannot be turned back. On that Day they will be split up. Those who disbelieved will find that their disbelief was against themselves. Those who did right were making the way easy for themselves; so that He can repay with His bounty those who believed and did right actions. He certainly does not love the disbelievers." (Qur’an, 30: 43-45)
