Love of Allah is a fact which has made believers happy throughout history. They tolerated tiredness, sleepless nights and difficulties of travels with passion and great faith\u201d, he added more.<\/p>\n<p>Mawlana Abdol-Hamid said that the idolaters love their idols, some love material things, but no love can be equal with Allah\u2019s love which is in the hearts of honest believers. The Holy prophet, peace be upon him, said: \u201c<em>By Him in Whose Hand Muhammad&#8217;s soul is, I love to fight in the way of Allah and get killed, to fight again and get killed and to fight again and get killed.<\/em>\u201d What a great love that the Holy prophet desired and wished to be killed in Allah\u2019s way.<\/p>\n<p>Mawlana Abdol-Hamid said more: \u201cAllah has mentioned a group of believers who stayed up nights to worship Allah and to recite the Holy Qur&#8217;an. The Holy prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, was threatened with death and captivity and prize was set for his killing by enemies. It was easy for the Holy prophet to endure these problems for the sake of Allah.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>President of Darululoom Zahedan pointed out to the story of <strong>People of the Ditch<\/strong> (\u0623\u0635\u062d\u0627\u0628 \u0627\u0644\u0623\u062e\u062f\u0648\u062f) who were burned in a ditch. They were thrown into a ditch and set a fire, due to their belief in Allah but they did not turn away from the true religion. There was a woman who saw her baby in fire but she didn\u2019t turn away from her religion because she had strong faith in Allah.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe prophet Ibrahim, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, was thrown into a fire, but he did not give up even for a moment. He said: \u201cI put trust in Allah. Allah is sufficient for me and He is the best disposer of affairs\u201d. When the Holy prophet Muhammad and his companions received the message of war in Hammra al- Assad, they said: \u201cWe put trust in Allah. Allah is sufficient for us and He is the best disposer of affairs\u201d, he further said.<\/p>\n<p>While describing the subject of love for Allah, the grand Sunni scholar in Iran said: \u201cThis is love that wakes people up for the Morning Prayers and makes for them Hajj and Zakah easy worships\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>He said that every sacrifice we make in life needs to be for the sake of Allah. Love of Allah requires from us to perform the obligations with sacrifice and devotion.<\/p>\n<p>The outstanding Iranian Sunni leader said in his Friday prayer sermons in Zahedan: \u201cWhen the Holy prophet, peace be upon him, was remembered in the presence of Mawlana Abdol-Aziz, (the founder of Darululoom Zahedan), he used to weep and cry\u201d. These were conditions of Allah\u2019s pure servants who made sacrifice for the sake of Allah.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Mawlana Abdol-Hamid said in his last points of Friday prayer sermon that hypocrites are not sincere in their love with Allah, their love is just on tongue.<\/p>\n<p>Mawlana Abdol-Hamid forbade the attendees from committing sins and emphasized: \u201cAs Muslims, we should avoid from committing sin and we have to obey Allah\u2019s commands everywhere\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBelievers must avoid barberry, murder, adultery, drinking alcohol, looting orphans\u2019 property, addiction and etc. which are big sins in Islam,\u201d he said.<br \/>\nMawlana Abdol-Hamid also said: \u201cWe should not take negative advantages of Allah\u2019s respite and mercy because no one can tolerate Allah\u2019s punishment.
