A Great Sorrow

A Great Sorrow

All these things are objectives in life. To possess the love of Allah is an object. To love those that possess the love of Allah is an object, and to love those actions that convey one close to Allah is also an object. Allama Sayyid Sulaiman Nadwi says that there is a connection with regard to the sequence in which this Dua was taught to us by which we request the love of Allah, then the love of the man and finally those actions and practices that take one closer to Allah. This is the manner in which Rasulullah had supplicated.
