Assalamu Alaikum
 
A Hadith of Rasulullah (S) says: "Al-Dunya Mauzatul Akhirah"
 
The crop of Akhirah is to be cultivated in this world. A person who wants to make this life hppy, he can do it only at the cost of other world. But if he wants to make the other world's life happy he will have to forego the pleasures of this world. This is a simple logic. You spend your time, life  and wealth in the way of Allah in this world, then reap its reward in the next world. It would make him the happiest person on the Day of Judgment.
 
So my assertion was correct in the light of the above explanation and the Hadith quoted above.

{Invite (mankind, O Muhammad ) to the Way of your Lord (i.e. Islam) with wisdom (i.e. with the Divine Inspiration and the Qur'an) and fair preaching, and argue with them in a way that is better. Truly, your Lord knows best who has gone astray from His Path, and He is the Best Aware of those who are guided.}
(Holy Quran-16:125)

{And who is better in speech than he who [says: "My Lord is Allah (believes in His Oneness)," and then stands straight (acts upon His Order), and] invites (men) to Allah's (Islamic Monotheism), and does righteous deeds, and says: "I am one of the Muslims."} (Holy Quran-41:33)

The prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "By Allah, if Allah guides one person by you, it is better for you than the best types of camels." [al-Bukhaaree, Muslim]

The prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him)  also said, "Whoever calls to guidance will have a reward similar to the reward of the one who follows him, without the reward of either of them being lessened at all."
[Muslim, Ahmad, Aboo Daawood, an-Nasaa'ee, at-Tirmidhee, Ibn Maajah]
