In Islamic theology and belief, Allah (God) is the source of all love and compassion. Love in Islam is the basis of worship, the essence of our relationship with our Creator. Islamic rulings are all geared towards the ultimate love of God and triumph over worldly attachments:
Allah's Love for His Creation: Muslims believe Allah's love and compassion extend to His creation. The Quran repeatedly mentions Allah's attributes of mercy and love. For example, one of the most frequently recited verses in the Quran is "Bismillah ir-Rahman ir-Rahim," which translates to "In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful." This highlights Allah's boundless mercy and love for His creatures.
