DR ABDUL
HAI’S (REHMATULLAH ELAIH) PRAYER
Hazrat
Dr Abdul RE used to say that whenever I worship Allah Ta’alah, and pray to Him
to grant us His love, I feel like Allah Ta’alah is saying that do you want to
love me? You have never seen Me to enable you to love Me directly, and develop
such a relationship as you do with people and things you can see. But if you
want to develop such a relationship with me, then I have made human beings a
manifestation of My love in this world. So, you should love them, be kind to
them, and show mercy towards them. That way you will develop true love for Me,
and this is the right way of loving Me.
If a
person thinks that because he loves Allah Ta’alah he does not need to love
human beings as they are small and worthless, and as a result he looks down
upon them and considers them inferior or sinful, it means that his love for
Allah Ta’alah is false, as it is not possible to love the Creator and not love
His creations. If he truly loved Allah Ta’alah he would also have loved His
creations. That is why the Holy Prophet ﷺhas said that if a person remain occupied with helping his brother and
fulfilling his needs, Allah Ta’alah remains occupied with fulfilling his needs.
And the person who relieves distress of his Muslim brother, Allah Ta’alah will
relieve his distress on the Day of Judgment.
