CINTA YANG TIDAK DIMILIKI
- Love is a gift from God and it comes naturally (without us asking for).
- At times we doubt, how can it be a blessing?
- Can't get love of the person we want?
- When we are deeply in love, Allah decided to put an end to it?
- What's the purpose of the feelings?
- Our love to be lead to the ultimate love.
- Most important love, for Allah and Rasulullah (Purest, truest, never rejected, never disappoints, always ours).
- We are servants of love, everyday (for Allah and His Messenger).
- Natural feeling, normal development (Whether it's a reciprocated one or not).
- To self love (Without it, can lead to negative actions: suicidal, etc).
- "We love someone, they don't love us. We don't love them, they love us"
- No matter if it is known/visible to the other party or not, sincerity lies within oneself. (action speaks louder than words)
- Whether a gift is from God or another human being, which is more important? The gift or the giver?
- But why do we show appreciation to the gift more? (the gift we have been wanting, not the giver?)
- When you forget the Giver or the rules of love, that's when the love becomes negative, no longer a blessing.
- Traffic lights and signage on the roads, does it mean we can't drive?
- No, but it's there for us to drive safely. Hence, Allah specify rules for love.
- Many focus on the love, forgetting the rules.
- The love can go as far (engaged, married, blessed with children, etc) but stopped by him (separated, divorced, etc).
- WHY? To remind you of The Giver and don't just appreciate the gift.
- To show you the the real, valuable, immortal love.
- (eg. from crying in prayers because of your problems, will develop into for the Almighty)
- Prayers are healer of wounds.
- Facing calamity?: إِنَّا لِلهِ وَإِنَّا إِلَيْهِ رَاجِعُونَ. اللَّهُمَّ أْجُرْنِي فِي مُصِيبَتِي، وَاخْلُفْ لِي خَيْرًا مِنْهَا. "inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi raji`un; Allahumma ajirni fi musibati wa akhlif li khayran minha - Surely from Allah we are and to Him we shall certainly return. O Lord, give me in return something good from it which only You Exalted and Mighty, can give."
- Whenever you question the giver, remember His blessings.
- When you're out of love, you'll complain/let out to Allah (best/ideal scenario).
- What is meant for you will be yours. It's a matter of time. If not it was never ours.
- Love not solely for the similarities, but the differences that determines the worthiness (tolerance level, mindset, understanding).
- God to grant us meeting someone better, for the betterment.
- To give your love to someone who knows how to appreciate, do not self hurt.
- Even if it's true love (human beings), one day they'll return to the Creator.
- At this juncture, you might see/hear good things about the person, but down the road might not be good for you (they change/something negative happens in their life, etc). Whats good now does not equates to a good later.
- Different people are blessed differently (House, spouse, kids, wealth, health, etc).
- Love for Rasulullah. (Supplications, etc)
- Despite guaranteed paradise, he willingly wanting to save his ummah.
- On judgement day, everyone (even our parents and prophets) will worry about themselves.
- Do not give a non-permanent statement (there's no forever).
- Love for the sake of Allah, we will be more accepting to fate.
- No matter the ending OR the response, with the right intention, we will not be overly disappointed.
- Be primitive in loving/hating someone (both may cause harm to ourselves).
- Do not devalue "love". Actions > Words.
- Make dua for them, pray for their well being, success, etc. Allah controls their heart.
- Istikharah is a guide, not a firm answer.
- Seek the cause of the relationship/marriage, depends on basis, it can be sunnah (for the betterment, etc) / wajib (avoid the wrath of Allah, etc) / haram (for worldly reasons, ctc).
- Make dua for your exes, any of them, whether it's good or bad past. Pray for them, positively.
- Everyone have been the cause of disappointments and be disappointed.
- Broken heart? To be accepting and move on. (time will heal, and put in effort: do not go for rebound, go for avoidance if needed)
- When to stop waiting? If it's too long (unreasonable, not achievable), doesn't look positive, no signs/response.
- Put hope, pray
- If it happens? Good. If not? Good.
- Follow: Heart, Mind, Allah's help.
- Dignity and Pride: If not meant to be together, it's okay. Will get someone better, and hope the same for them too.
- Do not self harm for the sake of what you thought was love (domestic violence, made use of, etc)
- Qada Muallaq: 1-Your request, your effort to get a good choice (through hard work. Eg, your methods of knowing the person)
- Qada Mubram: 1-Fated, meant to be, destined (no options, just happens. Eg, born into which family).
- What's determined for you is not what you're able to decide on your own (destined).
- Even if you know he/she is not a good person but you constantly request for your wish to be fulfilled, that's your decision, will cause damage.
- Unless you did your part (research, etc) on the person appears to be good but end up the opposite, that is fate.
- Are you good enough to have them to be part of you? OR are they good enough to be part of you?
- You complete them, vice versa.
- "bad women for bad men" / "good men for good women", BUT you have to find good people yourself, exhaust all possible ways.
- It's a matter of accepting each other (no matter the problems or the past).
- How much to tell about your past? (depends on situation/partner/your own will).
