As-Salaam alaikum,

In Surat Ra'ad of the Holy Qur'an (13:28), we have read it that:--

"Verily, in the remembrance of Allah do hearts

find rest/satisfaction".

And in the Books of Hadith, we have it where the Noble Messenger of Allah, Sallallahu alaihi Wasallam, reported as saying that:

"There is a piece of flesh in the body, if it becomes good

(reformed), the whole body becomes good but if it gets

spoiled, the whole body gets spoiled and that is the

heart."

Imam At-Tirmidhi Hakeem, may Allah be Merciful to him, said that "Zikr [remembrance/mentioning] of Allah moistens the heart and cultivates tenderness in it. When the heart is bereft of Zikrullah, the heat of the nafs overtakes it; the fire of lust reaches it and it becomes barren and hard."

Indeed, the life of the heart (qalb) is related to Allah Ta'ala's Remembrance. Man has only to implant Allah's Name firmly in his heart, what follows is amazing.

So, be engaged in Zikr always ( in form of reading the Qur'an, reciting Allah's Beautiful Names, Salat ala Nabi, Tasbih, Istighfar etc). With that you find out that even though your/our hands cannot feel Allah, the mind cannot grasp Him but the heart would vividly recognize Him.

With regular, constant Zikr, the heart can discern Allah Ta'ala, hear Him, entreat Him, Obey Him and act in accordance with His Will... Tabaraka Wa Ta'ala.
