There is no faith without love
There is no love without faith
Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it.
- Rumi
This is love: to fly toward a secret sky,
to cause a hundred veils to fall each moment.
First, to let go of live.
In the end, to take a step without feet;
to regard this world as invisible,
and to disregard what appears to be the self.
Heart, I said, what a gift it has been
to enter this circle of lovers,
to see beyond seeing itself,
to reach and feel within the breast.
-The Divani Shamsi Tabriz, XIII
Love is reckless; not reason.
Reason seeks a profit.
Love comes on strong,
consuming herself, unabashed.
Yet, in the midst of suffering,
Love proceeds like a millstone,
hard surfaced and straightforward.
Having died of self-interest,
she risks everything and asks for nothing.
-Mathnawi VI, 1967-1974

The Path of Love
CONDITIONAL / SELFISH LOVE
Almost all of us only love conditionally. We love someone because of how it makes 𝐮𝐬 feel or we love because of the expectation & desire of something in return, for 𝐮𝐬. That is conditional love, also known as selfish love. The real version of Love however, is self𝐥𝐞𝐬𝐬. You express your heart for what it contains. You love because you were given the ability to, not because you want a transaction. Love is Power because we came from Love & to Love we return. Everything you give purely for the sake of Love, ends up coming back to you 10x. Love is without condition.
Love is God. God is Love.
We must surrender to
The Will of Love.
Albert Einstein wrote a paper that he didn’t publish and said to wait “as long as necessary, years, decades, until society is advanced enough to accept what I will explain below.”
“There is an extremely powerful force that, so far, science has not found a formal explanation to. It is a force that includes and governs all others, and is even behind any phenomenon operating in the universe and has not yet been identified by us.
This universal force is Love.”

Who must you fall in love with?
before you fall in love with your soulmate (the one Allah has written for you)
before you fall in love with anything
else (your goals, passion, purpose
& dreams) ?
Who must you fall in love with before any of that?
The simplified answer is Allah (SWT)
"There is no greater goal, happiness, nor honour than to love and respect Allah Almighty
-Mawlana Shaykh Nazim Al-Haqqani
"Yeah of course I love Allah come on what do you think?"
Yeah but do you ruse to answer when He calls you 5 times a day the way you rush to answer a phone call?
Do you run to Allah when you face difficulty or do you run to His creation for help?
فَفِرُّوا إِلَى اللَّهِ
"Flee to Allah" [Quran 51:50]
Do you only remember & talk to Allah when you need help and forget Him at your happy times to thank Him for the blessings? [2:152]
Do your eyes shed tears for Allah?
Or do you only cry because of others?
Does your heart beat when you hear His Holy Words
the way it does when someone important is talking to you?
Do your feet walk to and hands open up His book to read what He sent down for you?
Do you remember Allah when you wake up
or do you check your phone first thing?
Do you thank Him for waking you up, giving you another chance to be better & not taking away your soul yet?
Do you make intention to do everything for the sake of Allah & to please Him?
Or do you do everything to please the creation instead of the Creator?
We think we love Allah, but do we really?
The path of Real Love is an entire journey you must decide to take
Our weak hearts that try to love Him back are nothing compared to how much He loves us
To try and love Allah, you must love that which He loves
"Say, [O Muḥammad], "If you should love Allāh, then follow me, so Allāh will love you and forgive you your sins. And Allāh is Forgiving and Merciful." [Quran 3:31]
Allah says in the Quran, if you love me then follow Prophet Muhammad ﷺ
To follow Prophet Muhammad ﷺ , you must love him
for how can you follow that which you don't love?
Allah's most Beloved of all creation is Prophet Muhammad ﷺ . The Prophet ﷺ was loved so much by Allah, that He sent down The Final Truth [Quran], Allah's literal words to and through Sayyidna Muhammad ﷺ & made him be the most perfect human to walk this Earth.
To love Sayyidna Muhammad ﷺ you must ask Allah to allow your heart to love His beloved. Ask the Prophet ﷺ to allow you to love him back because he ﷺ loved us before we were even born.
He ﷺ prayed for us countlessly and still does. His love for us is unconditional & we are so blessed to be from his Ummah.
One day the Propeht ﷺ was crying & his companions asked why? He said I miss my brothers. They said aren't we your brothers? Sayyidna Muhammad ﷺ said no, you are my companions. My brothers are those who will come after me, love & believing in me without even seeing me.
That's us he was crying about. We must yearn to reunite with Allah's beloved ﷺ the way he did to be with us.
The Prophet ﷺ is باب الله
[the door to Allah]
Drag you heart, soul & body to that door and finally take a step in it so you can taste the sweetness of محبة [Real Love]
Listen, read and learn about his life, his ﷺ's beautiful character & you'll understand why he was so beloved to Allah. it will help you want to be more loved by Allah.
Biggest way to increase your love is to send salams to him & his family
"Allah showers His blessings upon the Prophet & His Angels pray for him. O you who believe, send utmost salutations of peace (salams) to him" [Quran 33:56].
ٱللَّٰهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلَىٰ مُحَمَّدٍ وَعَلَىٰ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ
Transliteration: Allahumma Salli ‘ala Muhammadin wa ‘ala aali Muhammad
Translation: O Allah, send your grace, honour and mercy upon Muhammad and upon the family of Muhammad
One of the 3 questions asked in the grace is :who is your Prophet?"
It's your soul that will be answering, not your brain & what you memorized. if you don't know him ﷺ, and never loved him ﷺ, how do you think your soul would be able to answer that question?
The journey of love doesn't end there though
To love the Prophet ﷺ truly, you must love who he loved; his blessed family [Ahl Bayt]
Who better to know, understand and love than The Prophet ﷺ's blessed family and close companions?
The journey of love doesn't end there though
You must love yourself in order to love Allah more
"Those who know themselves, know their Lord." [Hilyat Al- Awliya 10/208]
To know yourself more, you must spend more time with you. You must know your most important organ & connection to Allah: [your heart] what is it constantly loving? You must know your mind, what is it constantly thinking about?
Those answers will make you realize your state, & then you can improve. But you must be gentle & loving to yourself knowing Allah wants you to become better so you should want to as well & that's why He hasn't taken your soul yet. Ask Him for healing & strength & then do your part
The heart is mentioned 132 times in the Quran.
Your heart and it's state & purifying it is so important.
The Prophet ﷺ said "Allah does not look at your figure, nor at your attire but He looks at your hearts" [Muslim]. This means you can be so beautiful on the exterior you actions, your lineage, your wealth but none of that matters to Allah. What's contained in your heart does.
The Prophet ﷺ & also said:
"Verily, in the body there is a piece of flesh. When it is sound, the whole body is sound and when it is corrupted, then the whole body is corrupted. Verily, it is the heart."
Is your heart sound? Are you striving to make it sound?
The Quran says
"Verily in the remembrance of Allah do hearts find peace" [13:28].
Is your heart at peace, or are you constantly anxious about the future or past. forgetting Allah is in control not you & that it will all work out? Are you remembering Allah in everything you do so your heart can be at peace?
In the heart, lies the root of all outward diseases" [Quran 5:52]
The cause of your exterior problems you face, is because of what lies in your interior
Purification of your heart is a must
Don't run away from the path of Real Love. You must begin your journey.
There is no faith without love. There is no true connection without love.
Love birthed you and to Love you return so go run & seek That Love
