WHAT IS LOVE...???
Al Qur'an says..,
وَأَنفِقُوا فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ وَلَا تُلْقُوا بِأَيْدِيكُمْ إِلَى التَّهْلُكَةِ ۛ وَأَحْسِنُوا ۛ إِنَّ اللَّهَ يُحِبُّ الْمُحْسِنِينَ
Spend the cause of Allah and do not contribute to your destruction with your own hands, but do good, for Allah loves those who do good (virtuous)
(Surah Al-Baqarah 2:195)
When your forehead touches the earth and dissolves in your prostration... that is love!
Apart from that, Allah (SWT) also specified those that do not receive His Love. Such as the verse:
لَا جَرَمَ أَنَّ اللَّهَ يَعْلَمُ مَا يُسِرُّونَ وَمَا يُعْلِنُونَ ۚ إِنَّهُ لَا يُحِبُّ الْمُسْتَكْبِرِينَ
Without a doubt, Allah knows what they conceal and what they reveal. He certainly does not love those who are too proud (Arrogant)
(Surah An-Nahl, 16:23)
When you understand the deepest meaning of the words Husband or Wife... that is love!
يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ اتَّقُوا رَبَّكُمُ الَّذِي خَلَقَكُمْ مِنْ نَفْسٍ وَاحِدَةٍ وَخَلَقَ مِنْهَا زَوْجَهَا وَبَثَّ مِنْهُمَا رِجَالًا كَثِيرًا وَنِسَاءً ۚ وَاتَّقُوا اللَّهَ الَّذِي تَسَاءَلُونَ بِهِ وَالْأَرْحَامَ ۚ إِنَّ اللَّهَ كَانَ عَلَيْكُمْ رَقِيبًا
O mankind, be mindful of your Lord, who created you from one soul and created from it its mate and dispersed from both of them many men and women. And fear Allah, through whom you ask one another, and the wombs. Indeed, Allah is ever, over you, an Observer
(Surah An-Nisa 4:1)
When your life path is so difficult or your life is full of ease so there are so many choices and you still choose to be faithful... that is love!
When everyone hurts you, insults you, humiliates you or people flatter you, adore you, make you feel number one but you remain humble and judge all is a meaningless part of life's journey without the power of Allah... that is love!
وَمِنْ آيَاتِهِ أَنْ خَلَقَ لَكُمْ مِنْ أَنْفُسِكُمْ أَزْوَاجًا لِتَسْكُنُوا إِلَيْهَا وَجَعَلَ بَيْنَكُمْ مَوَدَّةً وَرَحْمَةً ۚ إِنَّ فِي ذَٰلِكَ لَآيَاتٍ لِقَوْمٍ يَتَفَكَّرُونَ
And of His signs is that He created for you from yourselves mates that you may find tranquillity in them, and He placed between you affection and mercy. Indeed, that are signs for people who give thought
(Surah Ar-Rum 30:21)
When all the most beautiful and romantic languages in this world are unable to turn you away from the Qur'an which has the highest literary perfection in the Universe... that is love!
So great is the meaning of the word love...
The true and pure from Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala...
Love is... As Allah Has Love... That Is Love!
