(Dunya). The corporal world is this life. It is all that distracts man from the Remembrance of Allah and the Truth. It is the veil with which He conceals Himself from His creation. Dunya is whatever is closest to one's lower self. In itself 'the world' is not bad, it is only in being attached to it that one can be harmed by it. Man must have non-attachment. He must be in this world like a stranger. His sights, his vision, his aspirations and his love should be directed totally towards the Real, Allah.
