Human being consists of several elements. They are the physical element, the mind and soul. Each one of them has its own food and its own environment.
Before the soul was blown into the fetus by the angel, the soul has its own habitat -- the heaven. Its nutrition is the remembrance of Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala (dhikrullah).
Therefore, if a person in his life did not do dhikrullah, did not abide by the rules of Allah, or even go against them, physically he might look great, but his soul is in misery, eventhough he lives like a king, in comfort and luxury.
The tangibles like money, food and home, they only feed our bodies, things that eventually turn in dust. The soul is satisfied, quenched and satiated by getting closer to its environment -- the heaven. And to bring the soul closer to the environment of the heaven is through remembrance of Allah.
ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ وَتَطْمَئِنُّ قُلُوبُهُم بِذِكْرِ ٱللَّهِ ۗ أَلَا بِذِكْرِ ٱللَّهِ تَطْمَئِنُّ ٱلْقُلُوبُ ﴿٢٨﴾
Those who have believed and whose hearts are assured by the remembrance of Allah. Unquestionably, by the remembrance of Allah hearts are assured." (Surah Ar-Ra'd 13:28)
