Love of Allah.

Some people feel a divine attachment with Allah. It does not matter what religion, race or region they belong; they have deep feeling which keep them attached to the divine highness. I think, the presence of such affection is in fact an invitation from the Divine Entity to start a journey of peace, a tryst with the Divine Beloved. Nevertheless, the path passes through perilous experiences, but the pain becomes sweet like honey, when one realizes it is in fact a sign of being considered and observed by the Divine Beloved. As Sufi says, listen to these pain pangs, which are in fact the Divine messages. Although the door of Prophethood has been closed by the seal of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), and no official communication exists anymore between the God and the human. I think, the philosophy behind this concept, is that the message has been completed and the world is an exam place, to test the human on the touchstone of the message already reached in form of Divine book Quran. However, there is a secret exchange of signs indirectly between the Beloved and His lovers, just like a sweetheart seduces the Majnu. As people say, the lover is Majnu – or insane lover, who have gone stupid in the flow of their weeping emotions, and late-night cravings. As Sufi says, do not lose heart, because this pain is itself a cup full of wine, and this craving is itself a blessed destination. There is no need to go anywhere, or travel to any mountain to seek signs, because the Beloved is Himself here, in front of you, in and out of you, across you, upon you, below you, behind you, before you, as He is everywhere, wherever you face, you will find Him. He is with you. Have you ever talked to him? Ever exchanged a word? Alas, He is waiting for you, and you are hesitant to proceed towards Him, under a false impression that He is far beyond of you. He is not far. No need to search Him because He is searching for you. No need to walk to Him because He is coming you. He is the best Beloved, who is more cautious and waiting the lover. Alas, who missed His meeting. O Lord, I am in pain... In the pain of worldly distractions, fears, worries, hardships… Do not You see my tears. O Lord, I am not complaining the fears or worries. I am complaining about the wall, these worries have built before my attention towards you. and made me forgetful of my desire, and attention towards Your heavenly effulgence. Please give me peace. Please be with me. please make me feel Your company!
