Bismillah Ir-Rahman, Ir-Raheem. I begin with ALLAH's auspiciousness,whose Name is the Best among all the names. All Revences, All Sanctities and All Worships are due to ALLAH alone. Ashahadu An Laa illaaha illal llahu
Wa Ash Hadu Anna Muhammadan Abdu Hu Wa Rasooluhu
''I bear witness that there is no deity but Allah
who is without partner, and I bear witness that Muhammad (Peace be upon Him) is the Rasool.''
"O Allah, Shower Your Peace come upon Muhammad and the family of Muhammad, as you have brought peace to Ibrahim and his family.
Truly, You are Praiseworthy and Glorious. O Allah, Shower your blessing upon Muhammad and the family of Muhammad, as you have blessed Ibrahim and his family. Truly, You are Praiseworthy and Glorious". Iam Satisfied with Allâh as My Rabb and Cherisher,Iam Satisfied With Islam as My Din(religion) and I am satisfied with Muhammad as a Rasulallah (Messenger)sallallahu alaihi was salam) I seek Protection with ALLAH! With the Glorious and Noble Face of ALLAH! With the Complete and Perfect words of ALLAH! With the Exalted Attributes of ALLAH! From the Punishment of Hell; From chastisement in the Grave; From the Trial of Life and Death; From the Mischief of the dajjal. There is no power nor strength with (anyone) save Allah. ALLAH is Good and Only accept that which is Good. ALLAH is the Truth and only accept that which True. ALLAH is Pure and only accept that which is Pure. Ya ALLAH! ALL the praises are for You,You are the Holder of the Heavens and the Earth, And whatever is in them. Ya ALLAH! All praises are for You; You are are the Substaner of the Heavens and the Earth And whatever is in them. Ya ALLAH! All the praises are for you;You have the Possession of the Heavens and the Earth and whatever is in them. Ya ALLAH! All the praises are for You; You are Light(Nur) of the Heavens and Earth And whatever is in them. Ya ALLAH! All praises are for You; You are the King of the Heavens and the Earth And whatever is in them. Ya ALLAH! All praises are for You; You are the Truth and Your Promise is the Truth, And Your word is the Truth and the Meeting with You is true, And Parardise is True And Hell is true and All the Prophets(peace be upon them) are true; And Muhammad Rasulallah(sallallahu alayhi wa salam) is true,And the Day of Resurrection is True. Ya ALLAH! You have promise and Your promise is the truth,Ya ALLAH! You have promise and Your words is the truth, Ya ALLAH! You have promise and You are the Truth!. Ya ALLAH! You have created Rasulallah(sallallahu alayhi wa salam) to be the most truthful of men and what He(sallallahu alayhi wa salam) has said is the absolute truth! Hearts, as they mature, come to love whomever is merciful and kind towards them. So how much greater is their love for ALLAH from Whom all Goodness and kindness springs!Every good thing enjoyed by His creation is one of His limitless blessings, and He is One with no associates and no partners: "And whatever good you have - it is from Allah; and then, when misfortune comes to you, you cry to Him for help."(Qur'an, An-Nahl 16:53)
And also:"And from among mankind there are some who take for themselves (objects of worship as) rivals to Allah, loving them as they should (only) love Allah. And those who believe are stronger in their love for Allah." (Qur'an, Al-Baqarah 2:165)

And also: "O you who believe, whoever of you becomes a rebel against his deen (know that in his place) Allah will bring a people whom He loves and who love Him, humble towards the believers, harsh towards the disbelievers, fighting in the way of Allah, and not fearing the blame of anyone who blames."Qur'an, Al-Maidah 5:54) Loving Allah comes first of all (Al-Baqarah, 2:165). As a matter of fact, Rasulullah (sallallahu alaihi wasallam)made it very clear that what is most desirable is ALLAH love, the love of people that He loves and the love of things that will take us closer to ALLAH's love.The simplest and most direct sign of this is commitment to Rasulullah (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) and following his path. (Al-i Imran, 3:165) Our Rasulallah(sallallahu alayhi wa salam) is our foremost guide and teacher. If he presents to us as the prerequisite/condition of faith the will to want for others what is good and kind as much as one wants for himself and if he proclaims that believers are mirrors of each other, this means that he wishes us to establish our interpersonal relationships with humanity on the base of love and respect for the dignity of mankind.

Rasulullah (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) has sworn that no servant truly believes until he, ( Rasulullah (sallallahu alaihi wasallam)) is more dear to that servant than his own child, father and all of mankind. (Related Bukhari, kitab al-Iman: 1/58 Muslim, kitab al-Iman, 2/15) Rasulullah (sallallahu alaihi wasallam)also said to Umar ibn al-Khattab, "even until I am more dear to you than your own self". (Related Bukhari, kitab al-Iman wa'n-Nadhur, 11/523)When it comes to what we love and what this entails, then is not Allah (Most Exalted is He), even more deserving of our love and adoration than our own selves? Everything that comes from Him to His servants whether it is something that they Dislike, directs us to love Him. His giving and His withholding, the good fortune and the misfortune that He decrees for His servants and His abasing them and elevating them, His justice and His grace, His giving life and taking it away again, His compassion, generosity and veiling of His servants wrong actions, His forgiveness and patience, His response to His servants' supplications even though He is not in any need of His servants whatsoever - all this invites hearts to worship Him and love Him,and because He is the Best knower of all things , If a Human being were to do the smallest amount of any of these things to another, that person would not be able to restrain his heart from loving him. How can a servant not love, with all his heart, body and Soul, the One who is constantly Merciful and Generous towards him in spite of all his wrong actions? Allah seeks His servants friendship and love by means of His generosity towards them, even though He is not in any need of them. The servants, on the other hand, invites Allah's anger through their disobedience and wrong actions, even though he is in need of His assistance.

Neither Allah's mercy nor His generosity towards them the servants deter them from disobeying their Rabb. In the same way, neither the servant's disobedience nor his wrong actions deter Allah from granting him His blessings.(Abu Huraira Radhiallahu anhu narrated that Rasulullah (sallallahu alaihi wasallam)} said that Allah said:-I will declare war against him who shows hostility to a pious worshipper of mine-And the most beloved things with which My slave comes nearer to Me, is what I have enjoined upon him; and My worshipper keeps on coming closes to Me through perfoming Nawafil (praying or doing extra deeds besides what is (obligatory) till I love him, When I love him I become his sense of hearing with which he hears, and his sense of sight with which he sees, and his hands with which he grips, and his legs with which he walks; and if he ask Me, I will give him,and if he ask My Protection (Refuge), I will Protect him. Rasulallah (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) mentioned that Allah said:-

Myself, Mankind and Jinn are in a great serious state. I create them, then they worship other gods that they make for themselves;
I bless them with my bounties, then they thank someone else for what I sent them;
My Mercy descends to them while their evil deeds ascend to Me;
I endear them with my gifts even though I have no need to any of them while they alienate themselves from Me with their sins even though they are desperate for my help.
Whoever returns to Me, I accept him no matter how far he is; and whoever turns away from Me, I approach him and call on him. Whoever leaves a sin for my sake, I reward him with many gifts and whoever seeks to please Me, I seek to please him.
Whoever acknowledges My Will and Power in whatever he does, I make the iron bend for his sake. My dear people are those who are with Me.
Whoever thanks Me, I grant him more blessings; whoever obeys Me, I raise him and endear him more. Whoever disobeys Me, I keep the doors of My Mercy open for him; if he returns to Me, I bestow him with My Love since I love those who repent and purify themselves for My Sake. If he does not repent, I still treat him by putting them in hardship to purify him. Whoever favors Me over others, I favor them over others. I reward every single good deed ten times over or seven hundred times over to countless times over. I count every single bad deed as one unless the person repents and ask for My Forgiveness in which case I forgive even that one.
I take into account any little good deed and I forgive even major sins.
My Mercy supersedes My Anger;
My Tolerance supersedes My Blame;
My Forgiveness supersedes My Punishment as I am more merciful with My slaves than a mother with her child. In the Glorious Qur'an, Allah informed us that He is pleased with righteous words and deeds. "If you disbelieve, then verily, ALLAH is not in need of you; He loves not disbelief for His servants. And if you are grateful (by being believers), He is pleased therewith for you." [Surah Al-Zumar, 39: 7] Accordingly, showing gratitude for Allah's Bounties, devoting our worship to Allah and keeping away from major and minor Shirk (associating others with Allah in His Divinity or worship) are all reasons for earning Alla's Pleasure, as Allah says: "And if you are grateful (by being believers), He is pleased therewith for you." [Surah Al-Zumar, 39: 7]
Moreover, Allah is pleased with our being grateful and devoted to Him and performing acts of worship in the best manner as made obligatory by Him. He (Exalted and Glorified be He) says: You (O Muhammad sallallau alaihi wa salam) will not find any people who believe in ALLAH and the Last Day, befriening those who oppose ALLAH and His Rasulullah (sallallahu alaihi wasallam, even though they are their fathers or their sons or their brothers or their kindred (people). For such He has written Faith in their hearts, and strengthened them with a spirit ( a proofs,a light and with true guidance) from Himself. And He will admit them to Gardens (Paradise) underneath which rivers flow to dwell therein (forever). ALLAH is pleased with them, and they with Him. They are the Party of ALLAH. Verily, it is the Party of ALLAH that will be the successful. [Surah Al-Mujadalah, 58: 22]
According to this Ayah (Qur'anic verse), Allah informs us that He is pleased with those who give priority to the love of Allah over the love of anyone else including parents, sons, brothers, family and property. Moreover, Allah (Glorified and Exalted be He) says: "Say (O Muhammad (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) to mankind: "If you (really) love ALLAH then follow me (i.e. accept Islamic Monotheism, follow the Qur‘an and the Sunnah), ALLAH will love you and forgive you your sins." [Surah Al-`Imran, 3:31] Accordingly, Allah (Exalted and Glorified be He) informs us that following the way of Rasulullah (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) is a means of earning Allah's Pleasure. Furthermore, He (Exalted be He) says: "O you who believe! Whoever from among you turns back from his Deen (Islam), ALLAH will bring a people whom He will love and they will love Him; humble towards the believers, stern towards the disbelievers, fighting in the Way of ALLAH, and never fearing of the blame of the blamers." [Surah Al-Ma'idah, 5: 54]

The Highest Rabb Majesty - revealed the ayat about mahabbah (love): Say: “If you do love Allah, follow me, and Allah will love you.” .”[Quran Surah Ali Imran ayat 31]. This ayat is also known as Ayaatul-Mababbah (the ayat about love). So this ayat indicates the proofs and evidences for love (mahabbah), and its fruits and its benefits. So from the proofs of love (mahabbah) and its clear signs is to follow Rasulullah (sallallahu alaihi wasallam):and from its fruits and its benefits is: that Allah will love you. Our age is the final age in which He has sent Rasulullah (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) as grace to all the worlds. In its nature the coming of Rasulullah (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) is not different from the expressions of divine love through earlier revelations but in its scope it is the greatest such expression.So whosoever does not seek to follow Rasulullah (sallallahu alaihi wasallam), then such a person will not attain the love of Allah.” The proof for Love being a condition of La Illaha IllAllaah is in Qur’an (2:165) where Allaah Subhanahu wa at ala states:
“And of mankind are some who take (for worship) others besides Allaah as rivals (to Allaah). They love them as they love Allaah. But those who believe, love Allaah more (than anything else)……” True knowledge is the consequence of illumination (ilham), of a divine inspiration. Al-Ghazali says that "when ALLAH takes care of the heart . . ., the breast lightens and the mystery of the spiritual realm [malakut] is revealed, and the veil of error vanishes and the reality of divine things shines in the heart"Once the heart becomes owner of truth, the mind then obtains certainty: "the necessary truths of the intellect became once more accepted, as I regained confidence in their certainty and trustworthy character. This did not come about by systematic demonstration or marshalled argument, but by a light which ALLAH most high cast into my breast"The highest degree of love involves a full confidence in ALLAH: this is the meaning of tawakkul, such a complete trust in the Creator that the believer gives himself up to Him "like a dead man in the hands of a corpse-washer" the Qur'an also teaches that the establishment of a relationship with ALLAH, acquisition of faith and of good qualities and conduct are themselves gifts of divine grace that people who are to be saved receive. Thus in Islam man is saved by two acts of divine grace: one by which he acquires faith and the type of qualities and conduct which ALLAH loves, and the other by which any shortcomings, misjudgments or sins are forgiven and he is rewarded with paradise. The effort that the Muslim exerts in the way of doing good and obeying the Islamic Shari'ah or law is not, according to the Qur'an, an act of sheer will on the part of the Muslim but is a natural result of his the faithful muslim character, the type of heart and mind that he acquires as a result of the first act of divine grace. That is why much of what the Qur'an expects the faithful to do or not to do is stated not as commandments -- you shall or shall not do this -- but as descriptions of the characteristics of the faithful - believers are those who do or do not do such and such. Moreover, (1) The First test of sincerity is that a man should be willing to sacrifice his will to ALLAH’s, should cleave to what brings him nearer to ALLAH, and should shun what places him at a distance from ALLAH. (2)The second test is that the remembrance of ALLAH should always remain fresh in a man’s heart without effort, for what a man loves he constantly remembers, and if his love is perfect he never forgets it.) (3)The third test is that he will love the Qur’an, which is the Word of ALLAH, and Sayyidina Rasulullah (sallallahu alaihi wasallam), who is the Nabi of ALLAH ; if his love is really strong, he will love all men, for all are ALLAH’s servants, nay, his love will embrace the whole creation,) (4)The fourth test is, he will be covetous of retirement and privacy for purposes of devotion; he will long for the approach of night, so that he may hold covnversation with his Friend without let or hindrance.In truth, if the love of ALLAH really take possession of the heart all other love is excluded) (5)A fifth test is that worship becomes easy.When love of ALLAH is complete no joy is equal to the joy of worship.) in the Qur'an a code of law and adherence to it is not in the forefront. It is rather knowedge , faith and Practice, that will bring a close relationship with ALLAH, and doing of good deeds ('aml saleh) that are generally mentioned in Qur'anic promises of salvation. These are the characteristics of those loved by Allah include their being humble towards the believers, stern towards the disbelievers, fighting in the Way of Allah, and never fearing of the blame of the blamers. Therefore, people as such are rightfully described as loving Allah and being loved by Him. In other words, Divine pleasure and love are earned by obeying Allah through doing that which He enjoined us to do and avoiding that which He forbade. By doing so, we will reach the stage of Awliya' (pious people). In this regard, Allah (Exalted be He) says: "No doubt! Verily, the Auliys of ALLAH [i.e. those who believe in the Oneness of ALLAH and fear ALLAH much (abstain from all kinds of sins and evil deeds which He has forbidden), and love ALLAH much (perform all kinds of good deeds which He has ordained)], no fear shall come upon them nor shall they grieve. Those who believed (in the Oneness of ALLAH ? Islamic Monotheism), and used to fear ALLAH much (by abstaining from evil deeds and sins and by performing righteous deeds). For them are glad tidings, in the life of this world (i.e. through a righteous dream seen by the person himself or shown to others), and in the Hereafter. [Surah Yunus, 10: 62-64]............. 10 Things That Bring The Love of Allah SWT. (1) Recitation of the Qur’ an with reflection and with understanding of its meanings. 2) Seeking closeness to Allah by performing voluntary deeds after having performed obligatory ones, for that leads one to the highest levels of love.3) Remembering Allah during every situation - with one’s time, heart and deeds, one’s share of that love is to the degree of one’s share in that remembrance. 4) Preferring what He loves to what you love when your desires are strong.
5) Allowing your heart to reflect on His Names and Attributes. 6) Reflecting on His many favors and blessings, both the apparent ones and hidden ones, for that leads to His love.
7) Having your heart softened as it is worshipping Allah.
8) Being alone with Him in worship when He descends during the last third of the night. And this means to invoke Him, to recite His Speech, to stand with all sincerity and with good manners and with good submission, and then to end that with repentance and with seeking His forgiveness.
9) Sitting with those who are truthful in their love of Allah.
10) Staying away from all that creates barriers between the heart and Allah.Yet obtaining Love for ALLAH is a process. It is something to be achieved. Someone said that One does not simply wake up loving ALLAH. Yes it is possible that one can just wake up Loving ALLAH! Because this person has come to the Realization in his Heart that ALLAH is Greater than All that He has created. (But once love of ALLAH has taken over the hearts of the Believers it is like no other type of love that has been experienced. Love of ALLAH causes one to enjoy life more fully. It causes the Muslim to realize that ALLAH is the only non-changing reality. He is the Sure Reality and Truth (al-haqq).But those of Faith are overflowing in their love for Allah." (Quran 2:165)Hence, faith is first mentioned as a necessary component of achieving Love for ALLAH. It is misplaced when feelings for created things, or beings, causes a diversion from focusing on the Conscious Reality that created all. The Conscious Reality that sustains all. Faith is the decision of the believer to worship that which is unseen and unseeable in this life. Developing love for ALLAH begins with the study of the divine. Science now tells us that there is a component in the brain that creates within humans the desire to believe in a higher power. When we intentionally work to develop that part of our being, new paths are created and opened within the person. The Muslim begins to feel the need to worship (Ibadda), pray (salat), and remember (Dhikr - a form of meditation) ALLAH. ALLAH begins to take precedence over the Muslim's life. She/He begins to look on ALLAH with reverence and becomes a seeker on the path after ALLAH's Greatness.Steps to Gaining Allah's Love
The Qur'an details seven qualities that Almighty Allah loves and seven qualities that Almighty Allah does not love. Then, we-Muslims-have a way to explore the steps to gaining His Love.
Seven Qualities that Allah Loves
1. Tawbah (Repentance)
(Truly Allah loves those who turn to Him in repentance) (Al-Baqarah 2:222)
Repentance is a form of detoxification – Sincere repentance cleanses and beautifies the Iman (faith).
We all commit sins but Allah loves those who after committing sins, seek forgiveness with deep sorrow and regret. .... 2. Taharah (Purification)
(...Allah loves those who purify themselves) (Al-Baqarah 2: 222).
This is the external purification. The secret to this is performing the acts with the intention of following the example of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him).The removal of filth from the body by performing wudu’ (ablution) and ghusl (ritual bath) and removal of filth from the garment, body and place of prayer. They are acts that purify the body and radiate the Iman. It is a means by which Almighty Allah will wipe out our sins and raise our ranks.
3. Taqwa (Piety)
(Surely, Allah loves Al-Muttaqun (the pious)) (At-Tawbah 9: 4)
The fear of Allah is the source of a pure soul – it is borne out of love and obedience. Thus, a pious person is constantly driven to do good only. 4. Ihsan (Goodness & Perfection)
(Verily Allah loves Al-Muhsinun (the good doers)) (Aal `Imran 3: 34).
Rasulullah (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) says,
"Ihsan is to worship Allah (SWT) as if you see Him and if you cannot achieve this devotion, then you must know that He sees you" (Al-Bukhari).
Ihsan goes beyond a noble trait; it is an integral part of Islam. It is the secret to an attentive heart – knowing that Allah is watching everything. This fills the heart with respect and veneration and one becomes too embarrassed to go against Allah's commands. It promotes performance of good deeds for the sake of Allah and not for show-off or to gain praise or fame.
5. Tawakkul (Trust in Allah)
(Allah loves those who put their trust in Him) (Aal `Imran 3:159).
The secret and reality of trust in Allah is the reliance of the heart on Allah alone. Therefore trusting in Allah by wordof mouth is different from trusting in Him by the heart. ... 6. Qist (Justice)
(Verily, Allah loves those who act justly) (Al-Ma’idah 5:42).
Justice is a prerequisite to peace which is missing in our contemporary society. It involves giving other people the right we give ourselves, treating people the way we would like to be treated. ...
7. Sabr (Patience)
(And Allah loves As-Sabirin (the patient)) (Aal `Imran 3:146).
Patience is one of the most noble of virtues and traits. It is to endure what one dislikes with a sense of acceptance and submission and anticipating Allah's reward
