Love Makes Life Live

Love Makes Life Live Love is a strong feeling of deep affection for somebody. It is warmth and emotional attachment for someone or Love actually is the cord, apparently feeble, that ties the bond of oneness between two individuals and this bond gets as strengthen as hard the delicate cord of love is tied. This feeble thread of love does magic. It makes human life aromatic and colorful. It establishes a congenial network of relations among human hearts which no worldly power is able to break. Any society that is interwoven by the web of love can never experience hatred. Love is the spirit of human life. If spirit seizes to be in the body it is dead. As such no human being can afford to be lifeless without love. Well, love can be tasted two ways; either by loving and being loved by others or by reaching those unfortunate souls which are craving for love and warmth in the wilderness of abhorrence. When Allah the almighty ordered Adam to descend from the heavens and settle on the earth, He created innumerable resources around him so that he could feel easy here. These include mountains, valleys, postures, air, water, animals, plants minerals and the like just to make his life an easy and comfortable affair. Thus first love emerged. It was the love of the Creator for his super creature i.e. the man. It is because of this that He is called the Mother Nature. Afterwards social life began from mother’s lap where the first lesson of love is delivered. It is here that family relations are tied into an eternal bond of love. Mother’s love (Mamta) is actually the source of all loves in this universe. Mother’s selfless love, father’s care and concern, uncle’s watch and ward, brother’s warmth, sister’s affection, grandpa’s time tested advices, granny’s unconditional kindliness, friend’s compassion and sympathy etc all are different names of love. Life on this earth is like a vehicle which goes on and on until it reaches its destination and the fuel that runs this matchless vehicle is love without which it cannot move smoothly even an inch. A family where love prevails and rules has always produced quality social fiber. The individuals who love and are loved have broadened outlook with balanced personalities and sharp intellect and such citizens are surely pride of a society. In contrast in the families where there is disorder and confusion, where indifference reigns, where revulsion is a common phenomenon mental peace is a distant dream there. Such families always produce criminals and frauds who never serve any purpose to society because they are confused and their personalities always remain in shambles. Certainly it is only love that consoles us both physically and mentally in the times when the tides of repulsion make our life almost a hell to live in. If we turn over the pages of history, many paradigms of exemplary love and affection are revealed to us. It was love for Allah which took Muhammad SAW to the Hira cave to worship Him there and it was Muhammad’s (SAW) love for the mankind that he descended from the heights of the Hira cave to guide them to the right path. Then Allah’s love for His beloved prophet Muhammad SAW provoked Him to arrange his

visit to the heavens. The Mei’raj was just an excuse. Hazrat Musa reached the KohiToor to see his Creator only out of love. For Allah’s love Hazrat Ibrahim gladly jumped into the flames and sacrificed his young son. Love for his son deprived Hazrat Yacoob of his eye sight. Today mankind is experiencing a very tough time. Bloodshed, treachery, tyranny, repression and moral degradation are every day’s affair. Justice is breathing its last, humanity and humility look like some archaic concepts now and human blood is losing its value because hatred has overcome love and sense of belongingness is dying down in human souls. We love none consequently we are loved by none. When we love someone we forgive and forget all his faults just likes as a mother does if sometimes her kin dishearten her. She even consciously fails to notice the misdeeds of giant magnitude in case of her children because she is a mother and only knows to love. It is too hard to ascertain as to why we expect others to ignore our indifferences towards them whereas we never seem ready to be apologetic about what ill we do to others. It is profusion of love and compassion which makes us tolerant and charitable. Since we are devoted to hatred, the ambiance is quite disappointing. Iraq turned into debris, US killing guiltless people in Afghanistan on the pretext of eliminating the Taliban or Usama, Indo-Pak tussle, Israel killing innocent Palestinians and for that matter other national, communal, religious or racial conflicts all over the world simply prove that man possesses everything, power, science and technology, valour, knowledge and the like but is a bankrupt of love. Human heart is devoid of love that is why the world wars were fought which ended with a huge loss of human lives. Love and tolerance can guarantee ever lasting peace and prosperity as it creates the spirit of tolerance and endurance. Love begets love so abhorrence will result in hatred only. One reaps what he sows. So loving others will do the wonders. Once we love we will be loved. This will create such an atmosphere in which life would become bliss and the bond of human relationship would get strengthen. From every corner there would echo the sweet songs of love and warmth. Everyone would love to live a long life. Hatred, jealousy, anger, revulsion, animosity…everything would perish in no time. Then the discrimination of rich and poor, Mahmood and Ayaaz, elite and,… all such concepts would become irrelevant. We have experienced lot of hatred until now and the time has come when we must pledge that we will share love without asking for its price. We will do it at an earliest and from the core of our hearts. There would be billions and trillions of human beings but among all those countless souls there would be oneness of belief and opinion. Their approach would be soothing which will guarantee a safe and peaceful tomorrow for us and for the coming generations. Aa ki thoda sa pyaar kar lein ham Zindagi zar nigar kar lein ham Sabir Hussain Isaar
