How to Develop Allah swt Ta'aala's love(Ta’aluq ma’Allah)
Love is a spontaneous condition.
It is an unintentional state.
You have no voluntary control over its origin.
However, there are some voluntary acts that may lead to the creation of a strong relationship with Allah. It is well established by the experience of Masters of Sprituality that when practiced appropriately they do lead to creation of Allah’s love (muhabbat).
These are..
1.Excessive remembrance of Allah (swt)
2.Observance of Sunnah, in all matters
Keeping company with pious(Those who already have this strong relationship with Allah)
(Ahlul-Allah)
3.Being thankful for the bounties of Allah.
At the same time reflecting about our attitude in regards to them.
4.Being steadfast in following the rulings of Shariah.
5.Making Dua a lot.
All these are to be carried out simultaneously.
This will, InshaAllah, create a strong bond between the slave (abd) and his Master (Allah).
This bond/relationship/love is the objective of our path.
It is the driving soul for true observance of Shariah.
