Answer:
wa `alaykum salam,
1) will come from one answer to 2) which is:
Increase love by reciting Allahs’ Own Words, the Holy Qur’an, by making excessive salawat on the Prophet (s), and/or by reciting Dala’il al-Khayrat. Recite 300x Ya Wadud daily to increase love to Mawlana Shaykh Nazim and thus in turn to Sayyidina Muhammad (s) and thus in turn to Allah Almighty. Watch the sohbats of the Shaykh on sufilive.com.
