Where there is life, there is also LOVE...
Di mana ada kehidupan, di situ pasti ada CINTA...
- Syaidatun, 2007 -
What is love?
Imam al-Ghazali in The Alchemy of Happiness defines love as "an inclination to that which is pleasant". Love is the attraction of the mind towards what is tasteful and pleasure giving. When it is strong and firm, there exist a deep love.
Imam Ibnu Qayyim al-Jauziyyah defines love as pure, solid and tranquil feeling. It is also the tribulations of feelings that arise when the one in love is in a state of deep remembrance towards the loved one.
Iqbal, a great poet and scholar, defined love as a motivational power that can inspire one's life. Love beautifies, sublimates and idealizes.
What Al-Qur'an says about LOVE?
Fair in the eyes of men is the love of things they covet: women and children , gold and silver, horses and wealth of cattle and land. Such are the possessions of this world's life but in nearness to Allah is the best of the goals (al-Imran, verse 14).
And among His signs is this, that He created for you mates from among yourselves, that ye may dwell in tranquility with them, and He has put love and mercy between your hearts. Verily, in that Signs for those who reflect (al-Rum, verse 21).
True LOVE...
Say, "If you love Allah, follow me (Rasulullah pbuh), Allah will love you and forgive your sins. For Allah is oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful. (al-Imran, verse 31)
Love without Allah's Blessings - neglect the akhlaq of loving...
Love with the Blessings from Allah - take care the akhlaq of loving...
Love towards human being is always wonderful and beautiful, but in the same time it is painful and can be sinful ... (if without marriage...)
BUT love towards Allah and Rasulullah is always rewarding and promising
