A Call for Unity

Serve the Lord with fear, and rejoice with trembling. (Psalm, 2:
11)
Blessed are all who fear the Lord, who walk in His ways. (Psalm,
128: 1)
The Lord Almighty is the One you are to regard as holy, He is the
One you are to fear... (Isaiah, 8: 13)

The Believers Love for Allah

Every beautiful thing is the gift of Allah and a reflection
of His beauty. All conscientious and thoughtful people sub-
mit to Allah, the true owner of this beauty, with great joy and
love. Believers love Allah more than anything and anybody
else, for they know that He created all of the beauty and the
beings they love. This love of Allah is the true source of the

believers' happiness and inner peace. Every Muslim who
loves Allah also fears and respects Him and makes a genuine
effort to win His good pleasure. Such adds to the beauty of
the world, for those who love Allah also love His creation,
feel compassion and mercy for them, and wish to protect
them and give them goodness and beauty.
Those who forget Allah and give all of their love to His

creation, instead of to Him, and those who disregard His ex-
istence and instead feel a deep love only for others, will reap
sorrow, unhappiness, and discontent. In the Qur'an Allah de-
scribes the big difference between such types of love:
Some people set up equals to Allah , loving them as they
should love Allah. But those who believe have greater
love for Allah. (Surat Al-Baqara: 165)
