You Are Loved - Sulayman Van Ael

Allah loves us... but do we love Him? In this special Ramadan talk, Shaykh Sulayman Van Ael illustrates that, despite our shortcomings, Allah is near. We must but read His words, learn His names and seek His forgiveness with sincerity.

    I was a carefree young boy who seemed had it all in control, seeking the pleasures of this duniya and committing sins without care, but slowly but surely Allah showed me who is really in control and now it has been 3 years of constant tests and trials, I am the one who never shed a tear in past, now I even shed tears sometimes I want to give up then I remember I can't even give up and I clearly see what mistakes I made in life that led me to hardships. Brothers and Sisters if you are young time flies and everything seems so casual and happy but remember to make right choices and fear Allah because Allah is watching everything we do at every given moment. When Allah shows you what wrong you are doing know that it is Allah calling you to save yourself from the slumber you are in due to the glitters of this duniya and calling you back to Siraatal Mustaqeem. Knowledge is not enough you may have knowledge and if Allah wills that knowledge will become useless for Allah truly owns you and your knowledge and whatever you have. So fear Allah this is what I remind myself even though I still end up committing certain sins but we are being tested and when we want to get closer to Allah, Allah tests us even more for Allah says in the Qur'an which means do people think that just because they say they believe so they will given paradise? Nay! they will be tested just like the people before them were tested. So it is made clear to us who is telling the truth and who is a blatant liar. So brothers and sisters hardships will come because we have a claim in our heart that we believe in Allah, so Allah will test us so we will know if we truly believe or we are liars, Life of this world is nothing but a test so don't despair even in the hardest of times for anyone who claims to be a believer will be tested thoroughly by Allah, so we have to stay firm.

    ❤ I'm so proud to have known this honorable, humble and intelligent Sheikh when he was still an imam from a mosque here in Belgium. He went to school with my brother and after school or in the weekend's they basketball. Good old time. But look at him now, a humble, excellent and adorable Sheikh that didn't stood still through out the years. After he went to study at the university of Amsterdam and became a hafiz of quran. He is so multitalented, Allahumma Barik. May Allah swt grant him Jannaa't al Firdouwz. 🤲🏼🤲🏼🤲🏼☝🏻🫡💗💯

    AllaH knows my strengths and my weakness, He knows my past mistakes, my present faults and my future errors. He knows me and I am loved. AllaH has searched all the corners and dark spaces in me with laser like accuracy, not one part has He missed, and I am Loved. He knows me. me who is nobody at all, He shows all his Love, all His mercy, all the Heavens and the great hosts open before me. Such a nobody as me. Yet He keeps me like a precious gem in His hands. There is no Love better than this. There is no Love better than this.

    'Allah is not only there for those who are strong, he is there for those who are brokenhearted, for the people that gave up on themselves, because they depise themselves and because they dislike themselves' 'When we return to Allah, Allah will not judge us in the light of what we made people believe but he will judge us the way he knew we were' 'I am the first and last obstacle, between myself and Allah, than me transforming into the best believer you can become' Our religion is a religion of love, is a religion for love' Anas ibn Mālik (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that a man was with the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) and another man passed by him. He said: "O Messenger of Allah, I love this man." The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Have you told him?" He said: 'No!' He said: "Tell him." He went after him and said: "I love you for Allah's sake." He said: "May the One you love me for His sake love you!" Abu Darda reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “David would supplicate, saying: O Allah, I ask you for your love and the love of those who love you and the deeds that will bring me your love. O Allah, make your love more beloved to me than myself and my family and even cold water going through a dry throat.” 'We have one mission in this life that you are most beloved to Allah in that very instance' 'We are not created to stay' 'You are alone, sayiat 'If you don't long for prayers then you won't long for meeting with Allah' 'When someone longs for meeting with Allah, Allah longs for meeting with them' 'It is not about us' 'If you truly cared about these people you wake up in the last third of the nights, you raise your hands to the sky and you cry' 'When you fear Allah you might sin, when you love Allah you won't sin' 'You express your love for the divine and nevertheless you sin verily this is something very strange, if your love for him would have been true you would have not sinned, because when you love that somebody you obey that somebody' 'Loving is losing yourself for the sake of that one that you love' 'Because the love that you have for the one you love is greater than the greater than the love that you have yourself' 'I ask you Allah to make me long for your love' 'O Allah I ask you to give me the desire and the longing to meet you, and the sweetness of looking at you' 'O Allah let me love you in a way that does not harm me' 'Apart from Allah you have no wali and no helper' 'Do not be Allah's wali in public and his enemy in private' If you wouldn't engage in these acts in front of others out of shame or fear, then don't engage them in private because the One that matters the most can still see you. 'The pious are good at hiding their hasanats as the sinners' 'The One that knows Allah, doesn't think that Allah is sufficient that is the true miserable one' Who am I in the eyes of Allah? 'You are who you hide' 'Whenever you see that he has chosen who you do not turn you backs on him' 'Being close to Allah starts by being better in private than you are in public' 'Whenever you are alone in a sin in the obscurity of the night then shy away from Allah's gaze and remind yourself that the one who has created obscurity can see me' When Allah spoke of the beginning of creation he mentioned his name ar-Rahman. ٱلرَّحْمَـٰنُ ١ عَلَّمَ ٱلْقُرْءَانَ ٢ خَلَقَ ٱلْإِنسَـٰنَ ٣ The beginning of the creation was rahman and then he mentioned his authority 'Alal arash istwa', Ar-Rahman is the one who rules over the arash and everything in between. The past is rahma, the present is rahma. What about when we return to him? We will return to ar-Rahman. لَا تَقْنَطُوا۟ مِن رَّحْمَةِ ٱللَّهِ ۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ يَغْفِرُ ٱلذُّنُوبَ جَمِيعًا ۚ Do not lose hope in Allah’s mercy, for Allah certainly forgives all sins (but you have to repent). True repentance is disliking sin. 'Somebody detests going back to the sin after Allah saves him from it as strongly as he would dislike being thrown into hell.' Your beginning was rahma. Your present is rahma, and your return is rahma. You are loved. The question does Allah love me is not a valid question. The real question is do we love Allah?

    Met alle respect maar waarom? De mensen moeten zich maar aanpassen aan hem, niet andersom. Trouwens dat heeft hij jaren gedaan als imaam in zijn moskee in Berchem plus werkte hij ook nog eens met kinderen in scholen, allemaal en altijd in 't Vlaams.
