Empty your Heart: English article by Shahreen Khalid

Allah says He lives in the heart of humans then why He does not use any other organ of the body to live? Because the heart is only the organ that is clean,pure and has emotions and feelings. If the heart is pure there is no love other than Allah .This is possible only when we truly love with Allah ,not this materialistic world .Allah lives in all peoples heart but some finds HIM who are willing to find Him.

Empty your heart from love of dunya, materialistic things and people.no one is yours ,only ALLAH is yours .if you hold Him, HE will never ever leave you. Your heart is like that glass of water which is already filled with the love of dunya then how can you add more water in the glass? Similarly how can you add Love of Allah in your heart .
Your dependence should only be on Allah . Allah knows everything but HE likes to listen to it from you, however if you share your problem with people they don’t pay attention .so, always share your problem with Allah and pray .

You hand over your worries to Allah and Allah hand over His blessings to you

The struggle to empty the heart is the greatest struggle of earthly life. To empty the heart does not mean to not love. On the contrary, true love, as God intended it, is purest when it is not based on a false attachment. You can empty your heart by just obeying all five pillars of Islam that are essentially and enable detachment . When you attach your bonding with Allah , you will automatically find peace and comfort in your heart and your problems are automatically solved.

‘You do not love anything without being its slave, but He does not want you to be someone else’s slave.’
[Al-Hikam Ibn Ata’illah: 51]

First step toward ALLAH is difficult but when you put up this first step ,the remaining step will be easy . when we move forward toward Allah with one step, HE will be moved toward us with10 steps. No love is eternal except for Allah. so, move your heart toward Allah until it’s too late .

“Love of Allah is the power of the heart, the sustenance of the heart, the light of the heart.”
