  As-Salaam alaikum,
   Islam is all about obedience and worship: to obey what the Messenger of Allah, Prophet Muhammad, Sallallahu alaihi Wasallam, ordered us and to worship Allah Ta'ala. In this regards, we must NOTE and work/observe the 5 pillars of/in Islam, namely:--

 1. The Shahada
 2. As-Sallah (5 times daily)
 3. Zakkat
 4. Ramadan Fasting and
 5. Hajj.

 For us to reach maqamul Ihsaan (station of Ihsaan), the station of worshipping Allah as if we see Him, in addition to observing the 5 pillars of Islam above, we also need to have and/or inculcate Imaan (faith) in our life. Faith/Imaan is mainly about believe in the Unseen--that is to say we must believe in:--

 (1) Allah Ta'ala
 (2) His Angels
 (3) His Books
 (4) His Prophets
 (5) The Last Day of Judgement
 (6) In Destiny, its good and its bad, from Allah Ta'ala.

 We cannot see Allah Ta'ala, the Creator, but we can see His Creation and from seeing His creation we know that He is there!  That is maqamul Tawheed...we see His Oneness in everything.

 When Islam's physical activities, like Sallah and Fasting, and Imaan connect or combine together, they produce something called IHSAAN. Included in the station of IHSAAN are:--

 (a) Muraqabah: observation/meditation and
 (b) Mushahaadah: witnessing/vision.

 Where (a) and (b) above synchronize, you will then be able to contemplate on the creation of Heavens and Earth. When you remember Allah, Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala, you remember Him in your Islam, in your obedience, in your praying to Him, you remember Him in your state of Ihsaan.. In other words, be of:
  '..those who remember Allah (always, and in prayers)
   standing, sitting and lying down on their sides,and
   contemplating the creation of the Heavens and Earth,
  (saying), 'O our Lord, You have not created (all) this without
   purpose! Glory to You! Give us salvation from the torment
   of the Fire."  (Aali Imran, 3:190/191)
