Love in Islam Love is basically a sin. In Islam there is no freedom for opposite sex to make any sort of relationships unless they get engaged* in accordance with the rules that Islam defines very clearly. It is very important to mention that how a person perceives what love basically is. No matters what you think about it, what actually matters is how you meant it and it is a root cause that encourages a person to love someone. Being a Muslim, one must believe in the concept of veil. We are even not allowed to look a female again after once we have seen her inadvertently. On the other hand women are also forbidden from talking politely to men. The concept of love that has been delivered in Islam is very simple. We are permitted to love those ones form them there is no restriction of veil (parents, siblings, wife etc) equally enforced for both men and women. The word love finally leads to the meanings of devotion. It is a felling of destruction of our self that involves knowing all the weaknesses of your beloved but still finding him/her endearing for you, is actually love.


 * engagement, accordance with the rules that Islam defines, is to marry someone..'engaged' here, does not mean like to engage in today's manner.There is no concept of engagement in Islam as we are doing in this era.
