Ladies, let’s be real, navigating love in today’s world feels like trying to text with henna on your hands. One minute, you’re all “mashallah, I found my soulmate”, the next, he’s leaving you on read for six hours (and posting on IG).
But here’s the thing: True love isn’t found in desperate DMs or late-night overthinking. It’s written in the most powerful love letter ever, the Holy Quran.
Yes, sis, the Quran has been dropping wisdom since forever, and it’s time we actually listen. So, grab your chai, get cozy, and let’s dive into seven divine lessons that will transform the way you love, yourself and others.
1. Love Starts With Loving Allah (Surah Al-Baqarah 2:165)
Listen up, queen: If you’re out here making him the center of your universe, it’s no wonder your heart is exhausted. The Quran is crystal clear, the greatest love belongs to Allah.
“But those who believe are stronger in love for Allah.” (2:165)
When your heart is anchored in Allah, no “wyd?” text or unexpected ghosting will shake you. Because a girl who loves Allah first? She glows differently.
Pro Tip: Strengthen your love for Allah by reciting Ayatul Kursi daily. It’s like the ultimate protective shield for your heart!
2. Patience is the Secret Ingredient (Surah Al-Asr 103:3)
We live in the age of instant everything, food, shopping, relationships. But love? Real love takes time.
“Except for those who believe and do righteous deeds and advise each other to truth and patience.” (103:3)
So before you panic over why things aren’t happening right now, remember: Allah’s timing is always better than yours. Maybe He’s saving you from heartbreak. Maybe He’s writing a love story that needs a few more pages before your chapter starts. Trust Him.
3. Protect Your Heart From Haram Love (Surah An-Nur 24:30-31)
Let’s be honest: Halal dating is a confusing topic. Is texting okay? What about a little harmless flirting? The Quran lays it out clearly,
“Tell the believing men and women to lower their gaze and guard their chastity.” (24:30-31)
If he’s leading you into a situationship where the only “future” is more confusion, run. A real love story is one that brings you closer to Jannah, not Jahannam.
4. Forgiveness is a Love Superpower (Surah Ash-Shura 42:40)
Nobody’s perfect, not you, not him, not even your mom when she forgets to add salt to the biryani. Mistakes happen. But the Quran reminds us:
“And let them forgive and overlook. Would you not like that Allah should forgive you?” (42:40)
If Allah can forgive everything, surely, you can let go of petty arguments. (Yes, even the one where he didn’t notice your new hijab.)
But remember: Forgiving doesn’t mean tolerating toxic behavior. It means choosing peace over pettiness.
5. Dua is Your Love Language (Surah Al-Baqarah 2:186)
Sis, dua isn’t just for exams or finding your lost AirPods. It’s your direct hotline to Allah when it comes to love.
“I respond to the call of the supplicant when he calls upon Me.” (2:186)
Want a righteous husband? Make dua. Want to fix a struggling relationship? Make dua. Want to stop falling for the wrong guys? Make dua.
Nothing changes until you ask for it. So ask BIG.
6. Self-Worth is Non-Negotiable (Surah Al-Isra 17:70)
Imagine treating yourself like a queen, because that’s exactly what Allah says you are:
“We have certainly honored the children of Adam.” (17:70)
If he treats you like an afterthought, if you’re always begging for attention, if he makes you feel less than, guess what? That’s not love. True love starts with respecting yourself enough to walk away from anything that doesn’t honor you.
7. A Happy Ending is Already Written For You (Surah Al-Inshirah 94:5-6)
Heartbreak? It’s temporary. Love struggles? They’re part of the plan. But Allah already promised you:
“For indeed, with hardship comes ease.” (94:5-6)
No matter what you’re going through, your love story is in the safest hands, Allah’s hands. And trust me, sis, He writes the best endings.
