Honestly, I am sort of fed up with this fixation on "people should be happy"....
I don't really care if people are happy.... even if I'm happy doesn't really matter...... what matters is whether or not Allah is happy....
"whatever makes people happy" and all the emphasis on people's happiness being important- I don't agree with that at all......
whether people are happy or not is not really important.... what matters is if Allah is happy.... who cares if people (including me) are happy.... people who do drugs can be happy.... happiness in the moment won't save people's souls.... people's happiness (including mine) isn't really important... I think the emphasis on happiness is just a thinly veiled rationalization for hedonism... I think it logically leads to hedonism... whereas rising above the fixation on happiness can lead to virtue and good morals... virtuous people are not constantly focused on their own happiness imo.... and people who are constantly focused on their own happiness are not virtuous imo.....
