Question:
As Salaamu Alaikum,
I recently attended a yoga chanting event and I really felt that my heart was able to open and so much positive energy and love, joy an inner satisfaction (as best as I am able to describe it) was filling my chest. After leaving and coming home I observed for the next month the impact that this love was having on myself and my family. My children were smiling and my husband started turning inward more. I thought to myself that with this love i could do anything no matter how much was thrown at me if I could somehow sustain that love I could do anything. No matter what Allah asks of me I could do it ,with my whole heart, worshiping Allah with that love energy. I guess I am questioning weather or not it is ok to go with that love and to live as much as I am able in that love? I feel freedom and inner peace, satisfaction and joy when I am there. i want to pray I want to fast and so on only because it will keep me in that love,. I feel complete in it. A few times I saw how by habit I was running to dunya for pleasure and enjoyment and leaving that love, I guess I’ve been running to dunya and leaving that love. Is this correct?
Answer:
wa `alaykum salam,
This is good news, keep the flow of love going, alhamdulillah.
