On Love for Allah (swt)

[talibilm]

Some verses as food for thought in The Love of Allah Ar Rahman

''O mankind, what has deceived you concerning your Lord, the Generous ?, Who created you, fashioned you perfectly, and gave you due proportion; ''


Qudsi Hadith: the prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم said that Allah says:

Whoever returns to Me, I accept him no matter how far he is;
and whoever turns away from Me, I approach him and call on him.
Whoever leaves a sin for my sake, I reward him with many gifts
and whoever seeks to please Me, I seek to please him.
Whoever acknowledges My Will and Power in whatever he does, I make the iron bend for his sake.
My dear people are those who are with Me (i.e. whoever would like to be with Me, let him supplicate to Me and remember Me).
Whoever thanks Me, I grant him more blessings;
whoever obeys Me, I raise him and endear him more.
Whoever disobeys Me, I keep the doors of My Mercy open for him;
if he returns to Me, I bestow him with My Love since I love those who repent and purify themselves for My Sake.
If he does not repent, I still treat him by putting them in hardship to purify him.
Whoever favors Me over others, I favor them over others.
I reward every single good deed ten times over or seven hundred times over to countless times over.
I count every single bad deed as one unless the person repents and ask for My Forgiveness in which case I forgive even that one.
I take into account any little good deed and I forgive even major sins.
My Mercy supersedes My Anger;
My Tolerance supersedes My Blame;
My Forgiveness supersedes My Punishment as I am more merciful with My slaves than a mother with her child.

Tabarani, and Bayhaqi in Shuab Al Iman


It was narrated that ‘Umar ibn al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) said: “Some prisoners were brought to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), and there was a woman among the prisoners who was searching (for her child). When she found her child she embraced him and put him to her breast. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said to us, ‘Do you think that this woman would throw her child in the fire?’ We said, ‘No, by Allah, not if she is able not to.’ The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said, ‘Allah is more merciful to His slaves than this woman is to her child.’”

Love for Allah


Love is the main force that will cause us to move in the obedience of Allah. But the heat of this love has to be of a certain degree. When it reaches an optimum level we will be able to, for example, brave the cold and wake up for tahajjud. Tahajjud is not fardh. But the burning heat of love does not allow the lover to sleep through tahajjud. So optional worship comes through love. Without it, a believer will only do the bare minimum.

Hazrat Maulana Yunus Patel (rahimahullah) would often say, this current of love can be likened to an electric current. For electricity, there must be positive and negative particles. Positive or negative alone is not sufficient to form a current. Likewise for the current of love, there has to be both the positive and negative. The positive is following Allah’s commands and the negative is to stay away from His disobedience. Allah’s divine love will flow in our bodies when *both* are in place.

In today’s time there is a great desire to do good, like building a masjid e.t.c. But when it comes to staying away from sins, we can’t seem to put a brake on our nafs.

So in summary, how do we increase our love for Allah, the ability to do good and stay away from evil sins? This strength will come by associating with good company.

Allah sent the Prophet (peace be upon Him) to mankind. He could have just sent the Quran or some angels. But the system of Allah is, there must be suhbat. This is why despite the Arabic language being a vast ocean, Allah chose the term “Sahaabah” for the companions of the Prophet (peace be upon Him), because being blessed with good company is the most honourable status man can attain. Without good company, it is very difficult for one to stay on siratul mustaqeem.

May we all increase in our love for Allah and benefit from the pious, Aameen

"Beloved Allah"

Beloved Allah,
There is Only YOU.

My beginning,
My ending,
My everything in-between.

There is no 'me',
Without YOU.

No thought,
No action,
No life,
Without - YOU.

No sun,
No moon,
No chirping birds,
Without - YOU.

No heaven,
No hell,
No Day of Reckoning.

Beloved Allah,
There is no 'me'.

There IS ONLY YOU.
