 وأقولوا في القرآن ما جاءت به آياته فهو الكاريم المنزال وأقولوا قال الله جل جلاله والمصطف الهادي ولا أتأواله الحمد لله رب العالمين والصلاة والسلام على عبت الله ورسوله نبينا محمد وعلى آله وصحبه اجمعي هنا are two types of love for the purpose of answering this question there is a love which is طبير it's a natural love something which Allah has placed within you which is natural like the fact that احيان أحيان أحيان أحيان أو أحيان أحيان أحيان أحيان for example this natural love is not blame worthy if it is directed towards a non-Muslim for example a man might have a Jewish or Christian wife a man or a woman might have a non-Muslim parent there is a natural love that you have towards them and you can express that natural love and you can say such a thing to them and in fact there is hope that that will bring them closer to Islam however there is a love which is a love for the sake of the religion and that is something that you cannot have for your non-Muslim parent or non-Muslim for example a husband who is non-Muslim a Jewish or Christian wife for example that is something that you cannot have so when you think of them in terms of religion there has to be a hatred there has to be a hatred and that is something which is explicitly mentioned in the Quran وَا بَدَ أَبَيْنَنَا وَا بَيْنَا كُمُلْ عَدْهَا وَتُوَ الْبَغْضَارَ enmity and hatred has appeared between us and between you and so there is no doubt that when you think of them in a religious sense and you look at the religion that they practice which is not the religion of Islam there has to be a religious hatred for that not just for the action but even for the person in terms of the action that they are doing in relation to the action that they are doing but that doesn't stop there being a natural love now someone might say that's difficult to understand and I can understand that that is a little bit difficult to understand but let me give you an example let me give you the example of a parent that has a child who is a criminal for example that child has committed a crime ultimately as a parent you still love that child it's still your child but when you think of the crime they committed you have a hatred for them for committing that crime and of the crime itself and if that's a crime towards people then a crime towards Allah is even greater than that but that doesn't stop the natural love that a person has for their parents and that doesn't stop you expressing that to them and perhaps this will be a reason to bring them closer to Islam or along with being good to them being kind to them, being righteous towards them giving them the best treatment as parents because Allah has said جاهدك على أن تشكه بما ليس لك بهين فلا تلتعهما وصاحبهما في الدنيا معروفة and if they encourage you and they strive to make you make a partner with me and that which you have no knowledge do not obey them and accompany them in this world in the best way that's what Allah made easy for me to mention and Allah knows best if you have any questions you'd like to see answered as part of this series and you can email us at questionsatamau.org
