In this monologue, Shk. Khalil Jaffer concludes a series of talks from Ramadan, focusing on how to recognize if one is loved by Allah. He shares several Ahadith emphasizing that frequent remembrance (dhikr) of Allah is a key sign of His love. He explains that Allah's pleasure and displeasure are symbolic of His reward and punishment, not changes in His being. He summarizes previous discussions on spiritual growth, highlighting the importance of yearning for Allah (Shawq ilallah), removing materialism from the heart, and softening the heart through dhikr. Jaffer concludes by stating that the yearning is mutual, with Allah yearning for us even more, and emphasizes purifying the heart to truly experience and understand this divine love, using the heart as a compass pointing towards Allah.
