Allah always says in the Qur’an, “People are cruel and ignorant, ungrateful and give little thanks to Allah.” Somehow people’s minds have been divorced from Allah. That is why while calling on Allah we need to say, “MY LORD MAKE MY ATTENTION BE ALWAYS UPON YOU” but we also need to implore, “MY LORD! GRANT ME A PROFOUND LOVE FOR YOU THAT IS PURIFIED FROM ANY DOUBTS.”

ONCE ALL LOVE IS DIRECTED TO ALLAH, DEPENDENCE ON SLEEP BECOMES VERY LITTLE. For instance, our Prophet (saas) slept very little because his body was not harmed.

We, on the other hand, say, “We love Allah most”. ALL LOVE BELONGS TO ALLAH, for Allah creates whatever we see. Besides, it is Allah Who makes us love, He inspires some kind of attraction between the two parties, which is very beautiful. A great blessing, masha’Allah. That is why it is very important to devote one’s whole love to Allah.

BECAUSE LOVE IS FROM ALLAH, IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO DIRECT THE LOVE WITH ATTENTION. It is a unscrupulousness to withdraw one’s attention from Allah. ONE NEEDS TO FOCUS HIS ATTENTION ON ALLAH AND DO WITH HIS UTMOST CARE.

ONE NEEDS TO FOCUS ALL HIS ATTENTION WITH A SHARP JOY, KEEN FAITH AND ATTENTION. We need to mature our faith and love and while doing this one needs to think rationally and reasonably to attain it.

ONE NEEDS TO DEVOTE ALL HIS ATTENTION TO ALLAH, HAVING NO DOUBT OF HIM. THEN A RELIEVED, HONEST, WISE FAITH COMES INTO BEING.

One needs to focus all his attention and love on Allah.

HAVE A LOVEABLE OUTLOOK ON LIFE. ALLAH CREATED THE WORLD WITH LOVE. It is not Almighty Allah’s intention to persecute us and fill all of Hell with us. There is a verse in the Qur’an which relates, “What would Allah do by persecuting you?”

If you say you are in love with Allah, how will you show that love? The struggle you make against hardship, advocating the Beloved One under the hardest of circumstances and siding with Him. Then your faith, love and compassion becomes evident. Otherwise it is not recognized.

Allah does not love insincere love. Allah loves the genuine lover. The one who really loves Him.

ALLAH WANTS TO BE LOVED, BUT HE WANTS TO BE LOVED PROPERLY. Normally even a human being feels offended when he is normally loved. How does one want to be loved? He demands deep love, very intense love.

NOTICE THAT MANY BIGOTS DO NOT LIKE ALLAH. They also do not like our Prophet (saas). They love their sheikhs, their hodjas, their scholars. They love their idols who are their own men.

Why would Allah assign an end for the one He loves? He loves, He wants to love His servant. ALLAH DOES NOT FEEL SATISFIED WITH SOME SUPERFICIAL LOVE. HE WANTS TO BE LOVED FOR ALL ETERNITY.

Why would Allah put an end to the love of a person who is in love? Who would want the love to be stopped? Allah, in no way, wants that. That is why ALLAH WANTS TO BE LOVED FOR ALL ETERNITY. BUT WITH LOVE, NOT WITH SOME SUPERFICIAL LOVE, NOT WITH AN AVERAGE LOVE.

The one who is beautiful takes pleasure from the appreciation of that beauty. This is an inspiration of Allah to us. ALLAH ALSO LIKES TO BE APPRECIATED. ALLAH LIKES US TO BE IN LOVE WITH HIM. ALLAH LIKES TO BE LOVED WITH PASSION.

ALTHOUGH ALLAH DESERVES AN INFINITE LOVE, PEOPLE DON’T GIVE HIM ENOUGH LOVE. THEY DON’T APPRECIATE HIM VERY MUCH. That is why, Allah says, “They do not measure Allah with His true measure.” THE FACT IS, HOWEVER, ALLAH MUST BE LOVED WITH ZEAL. ALL THESE BEAUTIES BELONG TO HIM. All this passion must be diverted to Him. Almighty Allah deserves it.

IF A PERSON GETS ATTACHED TO THIS WORLD, HE SUFFERS A LOT. ONCE HE IS NOT ATTACHED TO THIS WORLD, HE WANTS ALLAH, because Almighty Allah essentially wants Himself to be the loved one.

Almighty Allah wants both gratefulness and to be loved.

You are all images created by Allah. When a person says, “I don’t like Allah, but I love you”, then this is great cruelty, immorality, remorselessness and idiocy. How can such an image come into existence without it being created by Allah? And once it comes into being, who will make you love it? Allah will make you love that image.

To Whom do the images belong? They belong to Allah. To Whom does our love belong? To Allah. How can one forget about Allah? There is such an abnormality. Allah wants us to be thankful, and in return He says that He will increase His blessings upon Us. That is because everything belongs to Him.

Allah creates His servants so as to love them. Allah wants to be loved, and He loves His servants. He also likes to be loved.

Allah wants to love and be loved for all eternity.

ALLAH PUTS US ON TRIAL, FOR ALMIGHTY ALLAH WANTS GENUINE LOVE. If everyone loves one another like robots, if Allah made it obligatory for them, you would be loving each other under compulsion. That is not what Allah wants. ALLAH WANTS US TO LOVE ONE ANOTHER AMID PAIN, SUFFERING AND HARDSHIP.

Allah does not want artificial love. He does not want compulsory love. He wants the fervent love of a lover. He wants that suffering that goes hand-in-hand with love.

Allah wants plentiful beauty. Where is sacrifice? Where is loyalty? In the absence of these, the value of love diminishes. That is why Almighty Allah postpones the reign of Islam until the last stage.
