All of us are looking for love. We carry
enough pain,frustration, and doubt in us
to crush us. Only the comforting embrace
of love can save us. We look around and
see a world embroiled in so much greed,
racism, inequality,and cynicism.We have
become more suspicious of each other,
more intolerant, and crueler. We need
change.Many sing the praises of love and
tout it as the answer. But they do not tell
us what love is, what to love, and how to
love? Everyone imagines and lives it differently.Who is right? Which path should we follow?
No one understands love better than the One who created it.He
knows how much we need it and how it can be nurtured.He
sent His Books and Prophets to teach us what love is so we can
love Him and each other.And He warned us against distorted
and toxic love. Islam is the handbook of love. It is the best,
fastest,and most comprehensive way to it.
