How to come closer to Allah
The highest objective in life is to draw closer to Allah and seeking His pleasure. Drawing closer to Allah is by imprinting faith in Allah in souls and continue to maintain that until a person reaches certainty and submission. The practical interpretation to that faith and expressing it should be through obedience where it appears in words, actions, behavior, and in all aspects of life. Obedience in personal aspect is embodied in holding firm with the truth, following it, fighting one’s desires, and training it for piety, goodness, and righteous actions.
Obedience in spiritual aspect should be embodied by mentioning Allah, relying on Him, loving Him, seeking His Mercy, and standing at His Door to seek His Mercy and ask for His Help.
Obedience in the family means to be kind, treat your family well, revere the elder, show mercy to the young, give each one what it deserves, and honor women in particular.
Obedience in social aspects is by showing kindness to the people, treat them well, preventing harm to reach them, helping, consolidating, respecting them and loving goodness to them.
When a person has that faith and obeys Allah as an expression to that faith he would be a righteous servant of Allah and shall gain the love of 
Allah; this is what Islam called to and exhorted to its followers. Allah (Glory be to Him) says: “It is not (possible) for any human being to whom Allah has given the Book and Al-Hukm (the knowledge and understanding of the laws of religion) and Prophethood to say to the people: “Be my worshippers rather than Allah’s.” On the contrary (he would say): “Be you Rabbaniyyun (learned men of religion who practice what they know and also preach others), because you are teaching the Book, and you are studying it.”” [Surat Al `Imran: 79].
This the way to true servitude to Allah, and when a person reaches that degree, Allah shall be more responding to him and always showers goodness upon him to grant him honor in the world and dignity in the Hereafter.
