ALLAH'S LOVE

You have seen how a mother embraces and suckles her little baby; how she expresses her feelings towards the infant. She does this due to her love and emotion for the baby.
You will also have seen how birds care for their young; how they bring food and water and put morsels in their mouths. They protect their young if they are attacked by other birds, by a snake or by other predators.
And even though they suffer as a consequence, birds surely love their young, show the great mercy and forbid evil being committed against them. This kind of mercy that fathers, mothers, and people generally, as well as animals, show within themselves, is from the Almighty, Allah. It is He Who created such compassion and it is He Who instilled in animals how to love their young.
Allah bestows mercy into the souls of humans and animals. He is the All Beneficent, the All Merciful, showing His love for all His creatures. He created love and mercy in the soul so that people and animals may have compassion for each other. Verily His love and mercy to us is far more than can be bestowed by our parents and families.
It is He Who created and provided us with the amenities for life on earth including the necessities for the time we were in our mother's womb.
He sent us the prophets to teach us the right path, to keep us far from evil and corruption, so we may enter paradise and be saved from fire and torment.
Surely He is the Most Compassionate, the Most Merciful; constantly demonstrating His love His and His sympathy for His creatures. In return, we should love our Creator by thanking and worshipping Him. He Who has such love and mercy for us deserves great praise and gratitude.
