Can You Feel The Love?

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
In the Name of Allah, Most Merciful, Most Compassionate

Assalaamu alaykum

This is one of the beautiful Ayaat in the Qur'an.

وَإِذَا سَأَلَكَ عِبَادِي عَنِّي فَإِنِّي قَرِيبٌ ۖ أُجِيبُ دَعْوَةَ الدَّاعِ إِذَا دَعَانِ ۖ فَلْيَسْتَجِيبُوا لِي وَلْيُؤْمِنُوا بِي لَعَلَّهُمْ يَرْشُدُونَ

And when My servants ask you, [O Muhammad], concerning Me - indeed I am near. I respond to the invocation of the supplicant when he calls upon Me. So let them respond to Me [by obedience] and believe in Me that they may be [rightly] guided. (186)

[Qur'an, Al-Baqarah 2:186]

Look closely at the ayah. Allah doesn’t say, ‘When My servant asks you about me, say to them I am near.’ It is as if He removes any other person from the conversation and addresses you individually, personally. He is talking directly to you and directly to me. ‘I am near, just call on me and I’ll answer you.’

Can you feel the love that the King of the kings is expressing towards you?

May Allah make our obedience only to Him and bring us closer to Him and feel His love. Ameen.

Allahumma salli 'ala Muhammad wa 'ala aalihi wa sahbihi wasallam.

And Allah knows best and He alone grants success.

Wassalaam
