Pearls of Wisdom: No.42

 

“Food for the Soul”

 

SUBJECT:  LOVE OF ALLAH

 

Allah, The Most Exalted, says:

 

“And those who believe are strongest in love of Allah…” (Qur’an 2:165)

 

The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) reported that Allah Ta’ala said:

 

 “If My servant likes to meet Me, I like to meet him; and if he dislikes to meet Me, I dislike to meet him.”(Hadith – Bukhari)

 

Note: It is incumbent on every believer to love our Creator who has indeed done so much for us. The Love of Allah Ta’ala is like a light, without it you are in an ocean of darkness. Life is a journey from ALLAH to ALLAH. If you really Love Allah and you are experiencing difficulty and wandering where is He, just remember that the Teacher is usually quiet during the test! Love of ALLAH leads to endless hope whereas not loving Him will lead to a hopeless end.
