The Secret in the Love for God - Paperback

by Osman Nuri Topbaş (Author), Selam Kul (Translator), Gabriel Fouad Haddad (Editor)

The greatest fruit of the blessing of faith is to look at creation with the eyes of the Creator and to approach all creatures with love. This elevates the life of a human being to higher levels and causes him or her to enter a world of forgiveness, mercy and love. One can then spread love and mercy to all creation.

Mercy is a fire that is never extinguished in the heart of a Muslim. In this world, it is the distinguishing essence of being human which leads us through the heart to union with our Lord.... A believer is always on the first line of every struggle which bestows peace to the hearts of others
