Love of Allah
embedded mountains on the Earth so it would not move under
you, and rivers and pathways so that, hopefully, you would be
guided. (Surat an-Nahl, 4-15)
These blessings are only a sample of the blessings given to hu-
manity, for in a following verse, Allah proclaims: "If you tried to
number Allah's blessings, you could never count them. Allah is
Ever-Forgiving, Most Merciful" (Surat an-Nahl, 18). Even if a per-
son reflected on the blessings recalled in these verses, this would be
enough for him to understand Allah's infinite benevolence, compas-
sion, and mercy. Allah endowed us with life, ensured our livelihood,
made us happy, and created every creature and event that makes us
happy. For this reason, we must continually thank Him for these
blessings and feel a great love for Him.
