Most of us begin with a relationship of acknowledgement and fear/obedience with Allah. If this relationship never flowers with knowledge into love, then this is how we will treat each other in the ummah, based on obedience and fear, and so you get things like imams banning women from riding motorcycles except by ‘sidesaddle’ which is extremely unsafe, such as recently happened in acheh. When there is a relationship of love with Allah, leaders can learn to deal with the people with compassion, and become relevant to their problems and their issues rather than just banning and ordering.

Nabil, Jazak Allah Khair for that great reminder – I loved the use of diverse quotes from the Quran, Sunnah & pious predecessors to drill the point home. Keep writing bro!

@ Zaufishan, perhaps in such circumstances, our love is reflected in appreciating our diversity. We don’t have to agree with each other in everything, or see eye-to-eye on everything in order to love each other. This is most true inside of close family relationships. We may love each other but not agree with each other, and in these circumstances, love rules :o)

Love. A difficult emotion to maintain when it’s repelled or underused.

We all love Allah, we all love his Rasool ﷺ, the anbiya and so on. But how we do show or give love to the average Muslim we don’t see eye-to-eye with?

May He who loves us more, help us love others.

Shukran for the post br.
