Self-love defined as “love of self” or “regard for one’s own happiness or advantage” has both been conceptualized as a basic human necessity and sometimes as a moral flaw, akin to vanity and selfishness, synonymous with amour propre, conceit, conceitedness, egotism, et al.

Self love is mainly the belief you hold that you are a valuable and worthy person.

An example of self love is when you have a positive view of yourself and are confident in yourself and your place in the world.

Divine Decree (or Predestination), as defined in Islam; Qadar (Arabic: قدر‎, transliterated qadar, meaning “fate”, “divine fore-ordainment”, “predestination,” but literally “power”) is the concept of divine destiny in Islam.

It is one of Islam’s six articles of faith, along with belief in the Oneness of Allah, the Revealed Books, the Prophets of Islam, the Day of Resurrection and Angels. This concept has also been mentioned in the Quran as the “Decree” of Allah.

With these terms explained, what does it mean when someone is not happy or satisfied with the life they live, what does that mean spiritually?
