Marvel at the Love of Allah (In the light of the Quran, the Sunnah and the Narratives of Muslim Saints) , by Ibn Rajab Al-Hanbalî س " Istinshaq nasim al -uns min nafahât riyadh al-quds"


Allah says: “I created the Jinns and Men only to worship Me . Now, one cannot adore (' ibâda ) what one does not know. God therefore created us to be known and recognized by us. He sprinkled His creation with signs that reveal to us His sublime qualities and Attributes. The more we know Him, the more we realize His extreme generosity, His mercy, His magnanimity, His gentleness, His Beauty... We end up succumbing and opening our hearts to His Love, then we love Him more until death. Worship with pure and selfless Love ( mahabba ) .

Love is an act of the Heart, very mysterious, it is also a state of being, which propels the faithful closer to God faster than anything else.

Ibn Rajab , in this marvelous book , teaches us the foundations of the Love of Allah in the Koran and in the Sunnah and calls us to marvel at the effects of this Love on the first Muslims who understood well that adoration with Love clears many shortcuts to closeness to God. Spangled with anecdotes and beautiful stories of men and women in love with God, this book will offer the reader to savor through these stories the sweetness of what disinterested love can be in the saints in Islam.
