Morning Reminder: Saturday 19th/ 20th of Jumaadal Uulaa 1435. Love of Allah by tongue and by Action. Our beloved Messenger of Allah (sal Allahu alaihi wa sallam) said: “By Allah, Allah will never throw one who loves Him and whom He loves into the Fire.” [Musnad Ahmad]. Love is a reciprocal thing. Suppose you love someone from the bottom of your heart but regardless of what you do for them they do not reciprocate your feelings. While you look at them adoringly, they look past you as though you were invisible. You put everything on the side to serve them day and night but they don’t acknowledge your selfless love or any of your sacrifices. You stand by them through thick and thin but they don’t value your feelings. You always try to do what pleases them but they don’t ask for your opinion. They say about you things that are untrue and listen silently while your reputation is trashed. How long will your love last? Allah (subhana wa ta’ala) has shown His intense and unceasing love for us; but have we loved Him in return? Have we given preference to Allah, His commands and recommendations through the prophet? Love for Allah and His Messenger basically means striving to obey His Commands. May Allah (subhana wa ta’ala) help us to become such that we reciprocate His love. “Those who believe are overflowing in their love for Allah.” [Quran: Surah Baqrah, Ayat 165] May our love for Him become greater than our love for our own desires and may we value His commands more than that of people we work for. Amin.
