Love
Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem,
Love itself becomes devotion, when directed (with every atom of your being) to Oneness and closeness to the One.
This has become all consuming to me, but can I explain?
In a practical way, but nothing more.
Directed outwardly, or directed inward? Choose Khalid. Think. For even your thoughts may be a form of purity and love — or evil and hate. Duality, but free will. Choose Khalid.
Your decision has been made, it was made before the creation of the first atom, it was made before you were a servant and chose submission .
O Allah! You chose me? As one of your servants? To worship you? To serve you? To love you? The decision was made before the dawn of Man.
Free will?
Not in a way that we know, but yes I believe so… choose Khalid.
Khalid has chosen love. Love for Allah, Love for his Messengers, and Love for his life. I devote myself until devotion turns to worship, and worship turns into habit.
Was this the decision of Allah, or just part of fate? Maybe its both. For the World is not black and white.
But many shades of grey.
Truth is One. Allah is Truth. This is enough for me.
Individual perception does not = Truth.
Truth is Truth. Al-Ḥaqq is Truth.
Remember this Khalid.
ALHAMDULILLAH
