Love must be translated in action

Islam teaches Muslims to uphold and spread peace in this world and to proclaim that peacemaking is a natural aspiration and the supreme object of human life. We are also urged to extend the scope of this teaching to others to the best of our capabilities.

We need to work together to nurture the soul of each individual and spread the message of peace, understanding,love. The world cannot exist without these. We should cherish each other and help regenerate the w and orld with care and kindness instead of war and destruction.  "What we do for ourselves dies with us. What we do for others and the world remains and is immortal."

Love must be translated in action, attitude and behavior; otherwise it is just a word without meaning. Similarly Allah's love is translated in His attributes of forgiving, compassion and mercy. Look around and you will find that Allah's mercy is spread all around. "Bismillaher -Rahman-Rahim" means "In the name of Allah the Most Merciful, the Most Compassionate." The words are AR-RaHMan and AR-RaHeeM. AR represents the article AL, meaning "the". The root word is RHM, which may be read as RaHiMa or RaHaMa, means mercy. Allah does not use two identical words next to each other unless there is a difference in their meaning.

Allah is Ar-RaHeeM for all humankind irrespective of their belief in Allah and their character whether they believe in Allah or not; whether they are good-doers or evil-doers; they all obtain their sustenance from Allah. Many evil people are very rich because Allah decided to give them all the wealth and good things of this life; this is because Allah is Ar-RaHeeM. Allah is also Ar-Rahman for the believers in Him; they are good-doers. They receive special blessings from Allah, that is, happiness and contentment in this life and reward in the hereafter.

Allah, subhanahu WA Ta’aala, is the creator of mankind and therefore knows his nature more intricately than mankind himself. Allah, subhanahu WA Ta’aala, has therefore chosen for us a religion best suited to the nature of mankind, a religion that goes neither to the extremes of hardship nor of laxity, but instead provides a middle path; in other words, a religion of ease. Allah, subhanahu WA Ta’aala, said;

"Allah intends for you ease, and does not want to make things difficult for you" [2:185]; and "Allah does not want to place you in difficulty" [5:6].

Such easiness is well explained in the hadith reported by Abu Hurairah, radiyallaahu 'anhu, that the Prophet, sallallaahu 'alayhi Wasallam, said, "Religion is easy..." [Bukhari], he also said; "The best of your religion, is the easiest." [Ahmad]

The easiness of this religion was put into practice by the best of humanity, the one who came to deliver the message, as Allah, subhanahu WA Ta’aala, said;

"Verily there has come unto you a Messenger from amongst yourselves, it grieves him that you should suffer any difficulty, he is anxious for you, for the believers he is full of pity and merciful" [10:128]

This understanding is clarified in a hadith in which the Prophet, sallallaahu 'alayhi Wasallam, said; "… Allah did not send me to be harsh, or cause harm, but He sent me to teach and make things easy" [Muslim]. This understanding is further implemented by the mercy sent to mankind, Muhammad, sallallaahu 'alayhi Wasallam, in the hadith reported by his noble and pure wife, 'Aisha, radiyallaahu 'anha, who said; "Whenever the Prophet, sallallaahu 'alayhi Wasallam, has a choice between two matters, he would choose the easiest, unless it is sinful (act)" [Bukhari].

The purpose of Islam is to save humankind from the anguish of this world and the world to come. Therefore the Prophet's mission was to establish justice and peace on earth and to offer guidance for salvation in the Hereafter. For all of this his method was nonviolence, because he was created Rahmatan lil-`alamin as a Mercy to the Worlds.

His love for humankind historically proves the truth of his way. At the beginning of his prophet hood he went to Taif to call the people towards Allah, and people threw stones at him mercilessly and hurt him severely. The angels came to him and sought his order to punish the people of Taif, but the Mercy to the Worlds refused them, and prayed to Allah for the good of those who hurt him.

Mankind is one single nation

The Prophet taught the people to love Allah and to love human beings. He taught them to love even their oppressors. It is known from the hadith that the Prophet used to pray for the good of his Ummah with tears, every day after each of the five obligatory prayers. Even at the time of his death the Prophet wept for his Ummah. And according to Islam all human beings from his time to the last day of the world are the Ummah of Hadrat Muhammad. Sallallaahu `alayhi Wasallam The Qur'an declares (2:213): "Mankind is one single nation." The Holy Prophet's life was a symbol of love and nonviolence. He was the first among all to protect others' rights.

The ultimate intention is to avoid unnecessary conflicts and to build peace among communities.
Prophet Muhammad Sallallaahu `alayhi Wasallam said: "Anyone who is not kindly disposed toward younger people and does not honor his elders does not belong to my community." In its wider sense for the cause of social harmony, irrespective of religion, language, and race, the Prophet said, "Allah (God) never shows mercy to a person who does not show mercy to others." The Qur'an says, "Help one another in righteousness and piety, but do not help one another in sin and rancor (5.2)." The Prophet said, "The Muslim is a person who does no harm to anyone close to him, either with his hand or with his tongue."

We need to focus on our spirituality. We also need to humble our self and try and break our ego’s
And this is advice to me first, then to you all: one thing that we can try to do is to have Husn -e-Zhan (good opinion) of people and not a Soo-e-Zhan (bad opinion) of people. Our Master Prophet (Sallallaahu `alayhi Wasallam) had the best opinion of people.

Allah SWT ( God) please forgive all the bad thing that I’ve and all Muslims ever done knowingly and  Islam teaches Muslims to uphold and spread peace in this world and to proclaim that peacemaking is a natural aspiration and the supreme object of human life. We are also urged to extend the scope of this teaching to others to the best of our capabilities.

We need to work together and harder to nurture the soul of each individual and spread the message of peace, understanding, and love. The world cannot exist without these. We should cherish each other and help regenerate the world with care and kindness instead of war and destruction.  "What we do for ourselves dies with us. What we do for others and the world remains and is immortal."

May Allah make our efforts sincere and keep us all on the straight path...........
