Divine Love

Timeless connection with the Divine source.

Divine Love

What is Divine love? It can be explained in simple words as: To sacrifice all the dear and favourite things, relations and wealth for Allah is called Divine love. To devote everything for the Beloved is called love. Love is the name of renouncing comfort and peace for the sake of the Beloved.

Essence of Love

A person loves several relations and things. When there exists a love so profound that it eclipses all other affections, it is termed as 'Ishq' in Arabic. If such fervent or ardent love is for Allah then it is called Divine love. The blazing intensity of this love turns all the other loves into ashes and overpowers them.

Prophetic Love

Love for Allah cannot be attained without love for Prophet Mohammad. Those who do not love the Prophet, cannot love Allah. The Companions loved the Prophet, this is why they were granted the love of Allah. Sharia was implemented after migration to Madina. In Makkah, it was the love that connected the Companions to Allah and His Prophet.

Divine Connection

If while remembering Allah and Prophet Mohammad, your heart fills with passion and eyes well up with tears, then know that they are very close to you. Divine love is innate to the human soul. The beginning of the universe is Divine love and the creation of humanity is for the sake of love.

Journey of Love

When the intensity of Divine love reaches its peak, it begins to wane and transforms into inner tranquillity. In other words, when love reaches its zenith, the lover attains Divine vision and union and it is within this vision and union that the lover finds serenity.

Truth of Love

Truth is distinguished from falsehood in the arena of love. Faith is incomplete without Divine love. Respect and regard for the Beloved is the first and foremost rule of love. Love is not merely a verbal claim, rather it is an inner state in which the lover is ready to sacrifice his life and entire possessions for the Beloved.

Love vs Intellect

When the Divine love conquers the inward, even highly qualified and renowned scholars willingly forsake their honour, fame and intellectual prowess to embrace the path of Divine lovers. It is not possible for a person to feel Divine love for another person. Those who make such claims are mistaken because Divine love, in its true essence, is Allah Himself.

Path to Success

Only the absolute Divine love guarantees success in the court of Allah. It is only the Divine love that can lead a person to the spiritual journey towards Allah Who is closer than the jugular vein. The ardent Divine love leads to the observation of Divinity and has the knowledge of unreachable Divine secrets of Reality.

Illumination

Divine love removes objections from the inward and illuminates it with the light of Allah that helps the lover recognize the perfect Fakir. When the seeker enters the realm of Divine love after crossing the boundaries of his knowledge and intellect then the power of love takes him to the station of no station by crossing all the boundaries of time and space.

Divine Pain

Divine love is pain. Hence, the lover is called pain-stricken. It is a great blessing to have the pain of love. The world is full of the wise but is devoid of the pain-stricken (Divine lovers). Do not resist, embrace the gallows! This is the bazaar of love, not a spectacle. The rules and regulations of Divine love are eternal and never change.

Path of Faqr

In the path of Faqr 'metaphorical love' means love for the spiritual guide. In the path of Divine love, a lover undergoes the agony of separation, isolation, patience and constant trials. He keeps yearning for a glimpse of beloved. These ordeals are severer than the flames of hell, serving to strengthen and mature the bond of love.
