True love

“You don’t know love until you know of Allah’s Love. You think love is a feeling, that love is butterflies, that love comes from attraction, that love can be broken, you think there can be an absence of love.

How then do you know of Allah’s love? That the Creator has fashioned you, then He clothed you, then He sustained you, then He gave you, then He raised you, then He forgave you, then He brought you closer, then He smiled upon you. There was never a moment that Allah did not love you. How many times did you turn away...yet never once did the Creator turn away from you.

How many times did you disobey Him, yet never once did He withhold His Sustenance from reaching your plate.

How many times did you ask of Him, never once has He asked of you anything that He has created.

How then, can we claim to love and to know what love is, when we have not even understood the magnitude of our Creator’s Love?”
