The famous Sufi woman, Rabi'a al-Adawiyyah said:
"My God {Allah} , If I worshipped you out of fear of the fire, then burn me with the fire of hell and if I worshipped you out of desire for paradise, then deprive me of it, but if I worshipped you for your love; then don't deprive me, my Allah, of your eternal beauty".
She also said: "I did not worship Him fearing His fire and desiring His paradise, then I would be like a bad hired hand; but I worshipped Him out of love and yearning for Him".
