Concept Of Love In Islam
You explained it well.Yeah i also want some elaboration on this point.I am confused on this.
The feeling of love is not something very rare or unusual, rather it belongs to ‘ilm-o-aqal kai musalmaat’ which is something human beings can, for the most part, rightfully decide how to express it and what limits to observe. Islam doesn’t interfere in such matters except to the extent where some limits are bound to affect ‘Tazkiya’ of a person, the rest is left to a human’s intellect. In addition to general guidelines on Ethical Prohibitions given in Quran Surah Araf Verse 33, with respect to certain relationships like with parents and spouse, there are few pointers that have been told to be kept in mind A.K.A ‘the limits that need not be crossed’. Islam doesn’t impose unnecessary shackles on human beings whether it be to express your love for someone or other matters in life. Since this topic is scattered over different domains of human’s religious, societal and familial relationships, I’ve tried to include all the related educational material of Ghamidi Sahab in the following videos, which either directly or indirectly, touches this topic of ‘Love’. https://youtu.be/bYSvxlOGOc0
We should express our love and affection openly in the society. not keep it a secret from the family, friends and the neighbors. Visible and overt relationships naturally follow ethics of religion and tradition as they are held accountable in the eyes of the society. Secrecy in a relationship and meeting behind closed doors is discouraged in islam. Because secrecy is very likely to cause a slip resulting in lustful behavior and fornication/adultery..
