Love--what is it about it that makes one feel victim to jealousy, irrational & down right tragic in the end? However miniscule or epic Love always requires a choice to make in the end.No ---for you hopeless Romantics-- i am not talking about the mortal Love between a Romeo & a Juliet or God forbid--or of the other abnormal love that i cannot get into right now.My Main subject is ---Love for our maker, our creator, our Most Merciful Supreme God-- Allah.Love to Allah means everything.Throught out Mankind History--stemming from Prophet Adam(PbUH)--our Father, to Sheytan or Satan who was once Allah's Favorite Angel.Love has been the center theme of all the problem that caused Adam & Eve to be cast out of heaven, earth formed & finally the result was a chain of Mankind hopelessly seeking Love every where.Lets Start with Prophent Adam,Allah chose him to be special, thereby ---Causing Sheytan to feel envious over Prophet Adam. (Pbuh).Evil was born out of envy or competition for the Love of Allah.The Satan who was once among the favorites-- was fumed to learn a better prefered life created right before his eyes.Satan was never naturally evil--he was once an Angel who competed for the Love of God.Then Prophet Adam (pbuh) & Hawo followed-- where Evil in itself then being fresh & new--began to misuse his natural powers to evil deeds.There is where the Good guy & the Bad Guy philosphy was born.Upon eating the forbidden fruit--Allah saw that as a violation of obedience, thus--a provocation of Love.They were duely cast out of Heaven as a result.Later --on earth the first murder happened between two brothers--the sons of Prophet Adam. (pbuh).The Fight was as a result of one son feeling his gift was not accepted by God, thus followed rage, envy & a murder.One sons envy of his brother being prefered more than himself.Where it was not the really so--because one brother loved Allah more & thus took great care & thoughts on picking the right gift.Not saying that he didn't love Allah--but there is a degree in Loving' in itself.And ever since --Allah's prophets who were chosen by God to spread decent lifestyle at first--which transformed to religion of Islam later through the last prophets --until to the BEST of all prefered Prophets, Muhhamed (Phbu) who was given the honor of being revealed the last compiled book of religion-Quran.(featuring teachings of Islam)
The moral of my analysis here is--the keys to Heaven is not by blind followship of a religion as an insitition of faith but to love Allah.We should follow Quran, not the institution of Islam which humanity through time have misinterpreted.the 'Choice' i was talking about a while ago where Love is bound you to make--is to LOVE ALLAH --whole heartedly--& completely. When we are told that the BIGGEST sin is to compare ALLAH to another God--is because --Allah values your love for him MOST- than anything else.The emphasis here is LOVE Allah & only.The purpose of Mankind here on earth we are told is to Worship Allah--- & thus this very Whorshipping translates to Love.You need to open your heart & put Allah FIRST & FOR MOST. Forget about this mortal earthly love---Loving ALLAH is the prime, ultimate gift you can give to your maker.Loving is ALLAH is essentially-----The REAL LOVE!!!!!!
What do you think of this thinking???
