Dr. Israr Ahmad discusses the permissibility and desirability of gazing, clarifying that while not forbidden, it is personally discouraged. He explains that his disapproval doesn't obstruct legitimate interactions. He cites a divine decree stating that once Allah’s judgment concerning someone is established through observation, it remains unchanged, though He may draw sustenance from the miser's wealth to aid the needy. This decree effectively supersedes any further deliberation on the matter.

True goodness isn't merely external ritual; it’s an internal transformation affecting the entire being. The essence of worship, like prayer, lies not in its technicalities, but in achieving a spiritual presence with God. Genuine prayer evokes a heartfelt connection, a sense of joy, and a direct communion with the Divine. The experience should be one of complete surrender and humility before God. Without this spiritual depth, the act remains incomplete.

The soul is distinct from the body. While death seizes the body, returning it to the earth from whence it came, the soul does not experience death itself. It is a transfer, originating from God and returning to Him. The soul temporarily inhabits the body during earthly life, then either resides in 'Aliyeen' or 'Sijjeen' – realms of varying states – awaiting eventual return to its divine source. The body is subject to earthly cycles of creation and dissolution, but the soul is eternal and its destiny lies with God.
