Question:
The statement: One who worships Allah with love alone has become a Zindiq?
Answer:
Love and action are both necessary, for sincere love leads to action: [Al-Imran: 31]. This is the love of the Zindiqs; they claim love while lying. If they truly loved Allah, they would act:
Do you love the enemies of the Beloved and claim
love for Him? That is not possible.
The point is that love necessitates action through obeying Allah and abandoning His disobedience, if one is sincere; otherwise, he is a liar.
