Chapter 10. The Love Of Good Should Be In Harmony With What Allah Loves
This principle is that the love of a believer for what is good, and his hatred for what is evil, and his desire for the accomplishment of the good and his desire for the avoidance and prevention of evil should be in harmony with what Allah loves and hates. Allah loves all that He has enjoined upon us in His shariah, and dislikes all that He has forbidden us in His shariah. Furthermore, the action of the believer in that which he loves (the good), and his avoidance and opposition to that which he hates (the evil), must be to the extent of his ability and his strength, for verily, Allah does not demand from any of us more than what is within our ability.
Allah says:
[Fear Allah (have taqwa of Allah) as much as you are able] Qur'an 64/16.
