No, enlightenment is knowledge of oneself. Christians and Muslims wnat to go to heaven. Christianity is the belief is more than just law, he's a person. Meaning he has personality and traits of humanity. Although in reality it's the other way around, i'm putting it into perspective. By calling God, fate, it's like calling everyone human rather than their name. Fate is what he is rather than who he is.

Perhaps I should restate what I meant. I meant "to understand" rather than "enlightenment". Again, God being a "who" rather than a "what" is still opinionated. According to many of the religions God is a "who", according to their beliefs and their laws. But possibly, in Fate's set of meanings, cannot God be a what? Possibly, God not being a "Who" at all? I've explained my viewpoints on what God is. Who He is is completely up to you.
