Attatchment and Addiction to Created Things Is Slavery...
TraceOneInfinite:
If you are attatched or addicted to something than you become a slave to that thing. This could be a drug, a job, a woman, food, anything. When you are in such a condition you can be easily exploited. Let's take a community of alcoholics for example. They can be continually exploited by the beer companies. The beer companies seek to create this kind of dependancy, because then it knows you are slave to them and you are a customer for life. This is how people prey on each other.
The person who needs nothing is the on who is truly free. On the other hand, if you are stuck in a life of slavery and dissatisfied with your position, and you are not willing to go without whatever it is you are attatched to; a house, or money, or the job you are in, the woman that you love, then it could be said that you are not willing to do what it takes to be free.
Let's take a worst case scenario, let's say you have to live homeless for a period of time to cut yourself off from your attatchments. Then you are either going to do that situation, or at worst, that situation is going to do you. That's all that can happen.
The only entity that we may be attatched and addicted to is Allah. The reason is that Allah is the Creator of all things, no Creator but Allah. Therefore, this means that Allah is self-sufficient, and Allah is not in need of anything.
Let me explain by another example; if you are attatched to another person; let's say a woman. Then that woman is in need, and she can exploit you to make sure that her needs are being met. Yet on the other hand, Allah is self-sufficient and has no needs, and therefore he only provides benefit and sustainance to mankind and all of his creations.
Asssalamualaikum.

Allah doesn't need my worship, my worship of Allah is for my own benefit.
