Abdur Rahman ibn Yusuf Mangera – Is your heart alive

It's a very comprehensive love, so one mustn't

think if I begin to love Allah then

I will have to exclude everything else. Allah

is not like other is not like human

beings, where if you got love for 1,

you can't really have love for another of

a similar track. There is nothing similar to

Allah. Everything is lower than Allah Subhanahu Wa

Ta'ala. Everything is subject to Allah Subhanahu Wa

Ta'ala. So thus he tells us to love

others as well. One heart and there's

it's only for Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala and

thus the heart needs to be kept like

the way people generally keep good masajid. Right?

That's how pure it should be kept. I

mean, that's a very good parable

that one of our sheikhs gave us, which

is that the heart should be kept like

a nice clean pure Masjid.

The way you keep it away from filth.

That's what we do. You don't let dogs

come inside. You don't let people come in

with weird clothing etcetera. You know, there's a

certain sound level that's tolerated and not anything

beyond that, etcetera, etcetera. There's many, many things

that, you know, most people will will look

for in Masajid.

That's how we should be looking at our

looking for in our heart.
