If we follow up to seventh principle, we become good Muslims
and successful in life. But man by nature craves for more
wealth, position etc., Prophet (PBUH) has promised increased
wealth in the hereafter much more than the whole wealth put
together on earth, by procuring Heaven for others by your
efforts.
Hence to think Heaven for all should be the starting point of
all motivation. One should develop an obsessive mental
attitude to lead all for Heaven and none to Hell. This should
be the basic logic for motivation and aspect for abundant
wealth in the hereafter.
In the context of Islamic faith the same idea can be
expressed as Save - Save. It means that I should save myself
from the hell fire and others also should be saved from hell
fire in the hereafter. The objective of any good Muslim
therefore should be to do as much good for others as for
himself.
The Principle Eight is to develop a mental attitude to think
Heaven for all and Hell for none.
