In this insightful QA section, Shaykh Abdullah Jabata (ḥafiẓahullāh) addresses a deep theological question that often arises in discussions about the names and attributes of Allāh: “If Allāh is Al-Wadūd (The All-Loving), why does He not love the disbelievers?” Shaykh Jabata explains the difference between Allāh’s universal mercy and His specific love reserved for the believers. While Allāh’s mercy encompasses all creation, His love (maḥabbah khāṣṣah) is only for those who believe, obey, and strive in His cause. 📖 Key Insights: • The distinction between Allāh’s love and His mercy. • Why disbelievers benefit from Allāh’s mercy but not His love. • The balance between Divine justice and compassion. • Understanding Al-Wadūd — The Most Loving — through the lens of Qur’ān and Sunnah. • The path to earning Allāh’s love as a believer. “Indeed, Allāh does not love the disbelievers.” — [Surah Āl ‘Imrān 3:32] “And He is the Most Forgiving, the Most Loving.” — [Surah Al-Burūj 85:14] 🎙️ Speaker: Shaykh Abdullah Aliyy Jabata 📚 Theme: Divine Attributes & Theology (Asmā’ wa Ṣifāt) 🎓 Focus: Allāh’s Love, Mercy, and Justice
