The vision
Whoo hoo young man in a law there are a lot of behind the camera.
And the vision will be the greatest joy in gender and paradise. When the full beauty and the full splendor of Allah subhanho wa Taala is beheld by the human being.
But we can have a
a taste of that beauty in this world.
Not with the vision of our eyes, not with our eyesight, but with our insight with the vision of our hearts.
If we cultivate our hearts and we cleanse our hearts, and we purify our hearts, and we orient our hearts, towards Allah subhanho wa Taala
and then love will consume our hearts.
And that's the highest motivation for worshiping Allah subhanho wa Taala
that's the highest motivation.
And it comes if we work towards it.
So love, we should love Allah subhanho wa Taala and someone hearing this who might be a Christian or from a Christian background that says good to love God but we have a loving God.
There's only one God
our God, if you're Jewish, Christian, Muslim, Hindu, there's only one God
in reality

Our love for a lot of time will never be unreciprocated
because the laws just in this world sometimes we love especially when we're young.
We call it puppy love.
And unfortunately for those whose hearts are afflicted with this particular malady, many times that love isn't reciprocated.

It's not a one way street. home he will love and they will love him. Because if we love Allah subhanho wa Taala that's a sign that Allah loves us.
It's a reciprocal relationship. But it doesn't come doesn't come cheap.

Then you've earned my love.
So the love for law doesn't come it doesn't come cheap.

So how do we cultivate the love for the prophets of the Lima send them by following him?
By learning about him, why did the teenagers who put the things on the wall they learn everything about that person that they adore, and they think they love?
How much do we know about the Prophet sallallahu wasallam. When we learn about him, and we learn about what he suffered for us,
it would be virtually impossible not to love him.
We know that he sacrificed his standing amongst his people for us. And I mean could have been the leader of the Arabs.
They even offered him that he passed that up for us.
He could have been wealthy
he could have continued in his business and if
so desired
No, he left all that for us.
He migrated farm from his home. He suffered the indignities that
he migrated for him from his home for us.

And that's a sign that the faith has become weak.
Because Allah tells us to love one another and the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam tells us the one love one another
So we discard that from the dunya. And what is the dunya?

The willingness to sacrifice, the willingness to lose something
on the sake of for the sake of one Mercy is shown to
the two are together.
The men and the woman who is the foundation of that community that should have love and mercy. What does the law say shall hold them together. Women, a Yeti and Haleakala and Fuji cameras were the test kulula with gyla they will come

But we become heedless.

And we don't work to keep that love alive. And what is the greatest act the greatest action mercy. The mercy goes out of our heart.
Man comes home wife is exhausted.
Those emergencies had to run the children to the hospital, and then come home
and do whatever she had to do.
And then she had to cook,
then another emergency and then she had to take the kids to karate practice. And then I met he broke his wrist just to run him to the emergency room. And then she comes home and tries to get the house ready because the husband's coming home.
And he comes home and the dinner is not ready and he blows up. Where's the mercy?
And that happens two or three times okay happen the other way. The guys out there breaking his neck and he's dealing with emergencies. He posts from pillar to post and he goes into the office and the bosses dumping on him. And he comes home and his wife's been sitting around all day watching soap operas and he just needs a massage and a hot meal. And she says no. I have to watch the one that comes on in the evening. Now, what is the mercy
and when the mercy goes the love follows. They go together.

a popular singer ask the question what's love got to do with it? The answer everything, everything.
Let me know how to come into your head belly or he may not say no one of you truly believes until they love for the brother love for their sister what they love for themselves.
Everything brothers and sisters, and when we have a loving and rich and deep relationship with Allah subhanho wa Taala and a loving deep relationship with the Messenger of Allah and love qualifies our relationships with each other at a communal level, and love permeates throughout our homes, brothers and sisters will have a society
and we're having to create an environment that will sustain us through all of the trials and tribulations this world can throw at us. Because we all know we have a loving and nurturing community to soften the blows of the world. We have loving homes to come to that soften the blows of the world.
And when we appreciate that and because we appreciated we're willing to do what we have to do to keep that love alive and they'll give us tofi will not bless us. Well I'll give us strength
