Our fitrah

From the time of birth every person is blessed with a seed of love. Love is a part of our fitrah. Everybody has this seed of love in their heart, but many of us fail to direct it towards it's true essence. Gravitational force is nothing but attraction. Even flowers show their love for the sun. They lean towards the sun. Flowers make a 180 degree turn for their love for the sun.
How can sinners like us refuse to turn our full attention towards our Beloved Allah(SWT)?

Pause your heart on the remembrance of Allah(SWT). Remember Allah(SWT) from the depths of your heart. The heart of the believer always has Allah (SWT) in it.

This is true a flower makes a 180 degree turn for the sun, but unfortunetly for man it doesnt come this easy. Sometimes at an early age we learn of the love for Allah (swt) and direct our lives towards Allah a whole 180 degree transition. for others at an old age is when we have that islamic transition. And then unfortunetly there are those who never find that ideal position that desire for the beloved and Allah (swt). I pray that those who have found this love for Allah (swt) that they remain under this beautiful trance. And i pray for those who are indebted to sin to come out and find eternal peace by directing their lives towards the almighty Allah, just like the flowers do towards the sun. But symbolically the flowers bow and lean towards the creator of the sun. Hopefully everyone will come upon the love of ALLAH, May we direct our lives and influence others to direct their life devotion and time towards our creator, God, our Almighty before its too late and the akhira is here *Ameen*
