eople who do not live according to
                                        the Qur'an's morals cannot love or
                                        be loved in the true sense of the word.
               For real love to be mutual, both people must love Allah with

              deep respect and should demonstrate those morals that gain
              Allah's good pleasure. Allah will place love in the hearts of His
              beloved servants and ensure that other people will love them. It
              should not be forgotten that Allah is the real source and owner of
               love. To enable someone to live with true love, which is of great
               value and a great blessing, a person should seek to be worthy of
                 this blessing by adhering to the Qur'an's morals, and should

                  pray that Allah bestows true love. People who do not ad-
                   here to the Qur'an's morals live a life bereft of true
                     knowledge, hope, and true friends in both worlds.
                            Allah informs us that love is a blessing
                           that He bestows upon us:
                                    And affection and purity
                                          from Us—he
