Описание: If you love yourself, you love Allah. This video explores the meaning of self-love in Sufism through the wisdom of Ibn Arabi, Rumi, Abdul Qadir al-Jilani, and Mansur al-Hallaj. In Sufi teaching, loving yourself is not ego or vanity but honoring the Divine breath within you.

You will learn why Ibn Arabi says that self-love is love for Allah’s work, how Abdul Qadir al-Jilani warns against confusing humility with self-hatred, and what Hallaj truly meant by “Ana al-Haqq.” Rumi reminds us that every human being is a work of art, and the Artist makes no mistakes.

Many today confuse self-love with narcissism. But the Sufis remind us that to hate yourself is to insult the art of God, for He has created you as His mirror on earth. As Rumi says: “Do not think yourself worthless, within you is a secret that shakes the worlds.”
