             It is not surprising that people have a spiritual sicknesses in the End Times.
             Believers are responsible for treating those diseases and this can only
             accomplished by means of love and perseverance.

             Being loveless shortens one's lifespan since lovelessness destroys the body.
             The cells are impaired due to lovelessness.

             There is a lack of quality in love all over the world. Religious commu-
             nities and groups are against one another; even cities are in opposition

             to each other. Such an inclination is not compliant with Islam.

             We are created for love; hatefulness and being quarrelsome are hideous.
             We, as believers in God, have to assign our souls to make other souls hap-
             py.

             First of all, we will become friends with our own soul, educate it and
             make our soul our friend. We will love our soul, and our soul will love
             us.

             Secondly, we will make other souls love us; we will explain to our soul
             that hatred and jealousy will not bring anything other than trouble.

             Hostility only harms us, and jealousy only leads to jealousy; however,
             forgiveness and love will let us win friends.

             The soul of every person seeks a friend and a loved one. What is a lov-
             ing person like? They are forgiving, compassionate, wise, merciful, sta-
             ble and modest.

             One loves the other through faith, if the other party makes
             any indication that he or she has no fear of God, the

             power of love is impaired.
             When morality is degraded, love ceases or it di-

             minishes, but with good morality love flows
             like a powerful river.
