Someone wants to tell him, that you should pay attention to me, and someone wants to show something like that, by telling something like that, so that people pay attention to him, without telling him. A businessman attracts human attention in a different way, and a politician in another way. Artist in another way.
Everyone wants each other's attention.
Children seek attention from parents, parents from children. A friend is a suitor for a friend's attention, husband and wife for each other.
Neighbors, relationships, relationships, the game is all about attention.
Sometimes a person's own desires take his attention, and sometimes his own goals.
Sometimes people start paying attention to themselves.
You may say that everyone deserves a little attention, but sometimes a person cannot determine how much. That is the point where he is deceived, he is misunderstood, he makes a mistake.
One thing is clear, however, that all of the types of attention you've seen have some degree of advantage over the other. And sometimes it's all about everyone else's benefit, none of yours.
Allah wants your attention too. His attention-grabbing style is somewhat different. He is the Creator, He is the Maker, He knows what is the improvement of man.
He also gives warning, hope, encouragement and guidance to man.
All other attention-grabbers have their own benefit, but seeking Allah's attention means only the benefit of man.
Let man pay attention to His word, His work, His universe, both are one. Allah Ta'ala is the creator of the outer and the inner. He is the creator of the known and the unknown. He is the creator of thoughts and feelings. The past is also his creation, and the future is also his. He is the one who created existence, and He is behind the existence. Makan and Lamkan are his invention. If He wills, He can make man heedless, and if He wills, He will pay attention.
He has created all this to see what people pay attention to. Does he pay attention to the Creator, or to other beings like himself? Problems and solutions, needs and luxuries, dependencies and autonomies, are all created by Him. He has created death and life to test man. He is the creator of all creatures, and He is the creator of their actions. What He has created, He is also able to operate and destroy. He alone is the creator of beginnings and ends. The finite and the infinite seek refuge in His power.
My friend, pay attention to your maker. So think about yourself.
Thanks and praise are impossible without meditation and attention.

May Allah grant us the happiness of focusing on religion and the hereafter, Amen.
