ANALOGY LOVE GOD TO HUMAN
Assalamualaikum steemian friends (peace be with you)
Imam Al-Ghazali intelligently gave an easy example of a love affair with God. God's love for his servant, like a king who allowed his counselor to draw closer to him. Perhaps the king would allow the advisor to come at any time, simply because the king liked him.
With his power, perhaps the king will give the servant a helping hand, or simply to enjoy meeting and seeing the servant. Or can also want to share opinions about something.
Or it could be the king wants to give his logistics supplies. That way, it can be said that the king loves him, in the sense he likes the servant because it has some things that fit the king's taste.
Sometimes, the king also permits a servant who draws closer to him and does not prohibit entry to meet him.
This was done not because he wanted to ask for help or gain anything, but only because the servants are indeed worthy of being close to the King, even closer. He has manners and behaviour commendable. Therefore, the King loved it. There are no other intentions. Therefore, if the King was eventually lifted the veil between him and the slave, then it could be said he mencentai his servants.
When the servant did something good and praiseworthy, which caused him to lift the veil, it meant he was connected to the king. He also became loved by the king.
