THE
ISLAMIC INVITATION MESSAGE

IN OUR
LIFE

Islam and Love

Islam is the religion of love . peace .
affability . amiability . cordiality and peacefulness : since love is the basis
of Islam that propagates peace in all branches of life , for all humans ,
animals , plants and sorts of creatures .

As a matter of fact , life dominated by
Islam is a perfected harmony whose basis is Islam with all values , principles
and teachings that from both the external harmony and the internal one , As for

the external harmony , it exists in the Muslims' deeds ; Muslims live with one

another harmoniously , peacefully and meekly without the least harshness,
whereas the internal harmony exists inside the Believing Muslims' conflict-free
hearts.
It is true that Islam is the religion

of love urging Muslims to love one another of the sake ( Glory be to him ) .

Moreover , it is Islam that urges Muslims
to realize love in all the relationships extended to all creatures including
all and excepting none .

Hence, love
is the means and the target at the same time .

Besides, it
should be taken into consideration that love is the mightiest weapon through
which evil, hatred, malice, spleen, grudge, envy, and aggression can be
successfully overcome, paving the way for love cordiality, affability, amity
and cooperation to prevail uplifting the banners '' FIGHT EVIL
EVERYWHERE.'' ''FIGHT HATRED EVERYWHERE.'' ''SPREAD GOOD EVERYWHERE.'' SPREAD
LOVE EVERYWHERE.''

However,
some may misunderstand the term ''Love" and understand it as submission.
But, Islamically speaking - the real sense of the term ''Love'' is the mighty
right - based, justice-founded and
assault'-free love whose foundations are might, right, justice, tolerance and Benevolence.

Thereupon, the real love is strong
enough to defend itself and its supporters; fighting self-love, evil, hatred,
spleen, grudge and aggression everywhere and propagating right, justice, peace,
peacefulness, tolerance, altruism, togetherness and Humanity-loving spirit;
thereby calling for evil-free good, aggression-free peace and grudge-free love.

In fact, the right-based, justice-founded and Allah-pleasing Love leads
up to Paradise, where there is no injustice, Hence, those who yearn to have
Paradise as no Eternal Bliss have to power their hearts with the fuel of love that
urges them to do good and discontinue evil, worshiping Allah ( Glory be to him
) through love that is not only addressed to Paradise but also to Almighty
Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful. It is such sublime Love that creates the
loving, shining, lustrous and radiant hearts; that have no room for evil,
hatred, spleen, grudge, or malice.

Moreover, sublime Love is closely
related to Faith. It is upon true Allah-pleasing love that the rate of Faith
depends. The Righteous and Believing Muslim will not have complete Faith unless
he loves Allah ( Glory be upon Him ) and His Apostle Muhammad ( peace be upon
him ) more than everybody, everything and even himself; one's love to others
and to himself should occupy a smaller portion of his heart if compared to his
Love to Allah ( Glory be upon Him ) and to his Apostle Muhammad ( peace be upon
him ); since such sublime Love drives a Righteous and believing Muslim forward
in accordance with the teachings of Islam.

Furthermore, love is closely related
to Paradise where no bearers of hating hearts will
be admitted . The only people who will be admitted are those pure-hearted
Muslims possessing loving hearts.

As for Muslims who help others in
adversities, they deserve Paradise. Besides,
those who help the poor and the needy, they have the same great reward. As for
Fasters, they will be admitted to Paradise through Arrayyan Gate and nobody
else will be admitted to Paradise through such
Gate. Prayer Performers, Zakat Payers and Pilgrims will also be admitted to Paradise; since the only basis upon which admittance
depends is the Muslims' possession of sincerity, truthfulness and Sublime Love.
It is true that Righteous, Pious and Faithful Muslims adhere to the Pillars of Islam, the cornerstones of Faith and the Concepts of Piousness and Righteousness,
through their Sublime Love that renders their hearts so illuminated that they
get completely immunized against the evil sides of their hearts and temptation
of Satan, who will go with his followers to Hell, (May Allah protect us from Hell). Hence the Righteous, Pious and Faithful Muslims' Sublime Love contributes to their salvation from Hell, thereby they gain Paradise
and Allah's Pleasure as the Eternal Bliss. In fact, Allah is Greater. Likewise,His Love is Greater and His Mercy is Greater too.
