Allah Loves… by Omar Suleiman
In Allah Loves., Shaykh Omar Suleiman opens one’s heart to a profoundly reassuring and life-altering truth: Allah is not far away. He is affectionate. Allah Loves. looks at the character, behavior, and mindset which Allah loves and presents believers with a positive model to become more intimate with their Creator. In a world where religion is frequently characterized as a set of do’s and don’ts, this book turns the emphasis to love, mercy, and the individual relationship between a believer and his Lord.
Who Is Omar Suleiman?
Shaykh Omar Suleiman is an American Muslim scholar well known and respected, the founder of the Yaqeen Institute for Islamic Research, and a regular conference and university speaker. With his warm presentation and thought-provoking reflections, he has touched millions worldwide with his online talks. His style of teaching finds a perfect balance between authenticity and accessibility—rooted in Qur’an and Hadith, but very relatable to modern-day readers.
The Concept Behind “Allah Loves.”
This is not a theoretical theological treatise. It is a spiritual manual intended to motivate action. Every brief chapter starts with a straightforward but potent reminder of something Allah appreciates, e.g., patience, humility, cleanliness, kindness, tawbah (repentance), and even certain groups of people—like those who trust in Him or those who cleanse themselves. The simplicity of this structure is what makes it so beautiful: every chapter presents a clear message and concludes with a call to action to become that quality.
An Invitation to Hope
Most believers, particularly young Muslims, experience guilt or a feeling of worthlessness. Shaykh Omar Suleiman speaks to this in a gentle and compassionate manner. The book also reminds readers that no matter how far they feel from Allah, His door is always open. Indeed, He loves when His servants return to Him. The repentance chapter is especially powerful, pointing out that Allah not only accepts tawbah, but loves those who turn back to Him with sincerity.
Based on Qur’an and Hadith
Every trait mentioned in the book has been based on original Islamic sources. Shaykh Omar takes his words directly from the verses of the Qur’an and sayings of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ. This establishes the book firmly in tradition yet makes it simple for the reader to relate Islamic values to everyday life. For instance, the chapter “Allah Loves Those Who Are Just” discusses the Qur’anic focus on justice, and “Allah Loves Those Who Are Constant” discusses the Prophet’s ﷺ promotion of consistency in acts of worship.
Short, Practical, and Powerful
One of the best features of Allah Loves. is its structure. Every chapter is short, taking only a few pages to complete. That makes it easy to read while commuting, before going to bed, or after prayer. Yet, in spite of their short length, the chapters are powerful. They provide not information but change. People can take one thing from each chapter and attempt to act on it in their life making the journey to Allah more accessible and motivating.
A Book for All Ages
This book is perfect for young people, adults, and even non-Muslims who desire to learn the spiritual nature of Islam. It can be presented to a teenager attempting to solidify their faith or to a revert studying Islamic values. The language is kind and easy to understand. There is no technicality or sophistication—only plain, sincere instruction regarding what Allah loves and how we can be like that.
Emphasizing Love Over Fear
One of the most refreshing things about the book is its focus on love. Fear of Allah is a correct and necessary part of faith, but Shaykh Omar Suleiman reminds us that our relationship with Allah also needs to be based on love. When we work to do what Allah loves, we are not only obeying Him we are getting closer to Him, gaining His mercy, and living out the purpose of our creation.
Themes That Ring True Today
In the fast-paced and emotionally exhausted world of today, believers become bogged down by anxiety, guilt, or spiritual burnout. Allah Loves. answers that with a message of hope. It reminds us that Allah’s love is accessible. The patience, trust, repentance, mercy, humility, and justice themes are particularly timely in a world that feels uncertain and hearts that feel disconnected.
A Book That Provokes Reflection
Each chapter provides the foundation for reflection, journaling, group discussion, or self-reflection. The reader will be able to ask themselves: Do I live with patience? Am I just in my dealings? Do I trust Allah? The book does not lecture, judge, but rather softly nudges readers to examine their own lives and think through how they can win the love of Allah by simply living simple, true-to-self actions.
Inspiring Consistent Growth
This book is not a one-time read and put on the shelf. It’s a book that you go back to when you need spiritual guidance or solace. You may go back to the chapter on sabr (patience) during hard times, or to the forgiveness chapter when you’ve erred. Shaykh Omar Suleiman has written a timeless manual that increases in value with your own growth in your deen.
The Spiritual Impact
Many readers have described this book as healing, motivating, and deeply emotional. It has helped rekindle love for Allah in the hearts of those who felt spiritually distant. Others have used it as a supplement during Ramadan or as a weekly study resource. Whether you’re new to Islam or have been practicing for years, Allah Loves. is a gentle reminder of the beauty of being loved by your Creator.
The Conclusion A Must-Read for All Muslims
Allah Loves. by Omar Suleiman is more than a book it’s a spiritual guide. It assists believers in reconnecting with Allah in love, action, and consciousness. At a time when most people only care about what Allah prohibits, this book turns the focus onto what Allah loves. It is an invitation to be the kind of person that Allah loves not because of being perfect, but because of sincerity and endeavor.
This is a book that should be in every Muslim’s home. It is easy enough to read in one sitting, yet profound enough to stay in your heart. Keep it on your bookshelf. Read it regularly. Pass it along to others. Most importantly, let it encourage you to seek Allah’s love each and every day.
