Falling Love With Allah(swt)



Fall In Love With Allah subhanahu wata'ala 

Your Heart Will Never Be Broken,
Your Love Would Never Be Wasted 


People fall in love with all kinds of things. But the one love they miss out on is the love of Allah.

How many people realize that the best one to fall in love with is Allah himself, and not that or this part or aspect of his creation?

In today’s world everything tells us that all is possible for the sake of love. In songs and movies, we are encouraged to “fight” to get this love and told that “nothing else matters as long as we are together”. Love is described as the ultimate source of happiness. As a matter of fact, everyone runs after it desperately hoping to fill up this emptiness in their heart.

Unfortunately, this love never lasts for long and majority of us realize too late that precious time is wasted in trying to catch an illusion. More sadly, this type of love leads some of us to a state of mind and heart worse than before.

“And [yet], among the people are those who take other than Allah as equals [to Him]. They love them as they [should] love Allah. But those who believe are stronger in love for Allah”. (Surah Al-Baqarah 2:165)

Allah (swt) says in the Qur’an: “And if you should count the favor of Allah, you could not enumerate them.” [14:34]

The true source of love in the believers' hearts is their profound love of Allah. Believers love Allah greatly and, at every moment, strive to gain His love and good pleasure.

Moreover, if we find that Islam is difficult, know that loving Allah (swt) is the key to tasting the sweetness of faith. The Prophet ﷺ told us, “There are three things which if a person finds them, he has found the sweetness of faith: when Allah and His Messenger are dearer to him than all else; when he loves a person for no other reason than for the sake of Allah; and when he hates to return to kufr after Allah has saved him from it as he would hate to be thrown into fire,” [Bukhari].

When you fall in love with Allah, the difficulties of life become easy.

It ia clear that people’s love cannot be achieved except through the love of Allah.

O Allah, We ask You for Your love, the love of whoever loves You and the love of the deed which will draw us in attaining Your love.
